Guys we have this argument every year. Netflix doesn’t start prioritising people and films over the other until the critics awards and the Globes.

Even then last year they prioritised The Irishman and Marriage Story equally.

I’m not agreeing with one person or the other here but I feel like arguing over “who is priority one” and “who is pri…[Read more]

Yep.

I can understand everything is subjective but I don’t understand how Anya Taylor-Joy was the MVP  of the episode when she appeared in the episode for 10 seconds and all she did was run and wake up in an expensive room…

Exactly why people are underestimating her. Yes her film gets a bit divisive once a viewer reaches a certain point in it but her performance is universally acclaimed and Focus Features does well here when they put all their money on one contender (Erivo, Negga). They seem to be putting all their money on Mulligan this year.

Honestly I just want…[Read more]

Fun little miniseries/movie stats :

– The last time FX missed Miniseries/Movie was in 2012.

– HBO has only missed once in Limited Series/Movie since 2000 (in 2015 when their only eligible show was David Simon’s Show Me a Hero). Since 2008 all their series/movies that have been nominated here have gone on to get Series nominations at the…[Read more]

The Undoing
“The Undoing”
Grade: B+
MVP: Nicole Kidman

I can understand the idea that this could be seen as being a bit like Big Little Lies (I feel like it’s more a bit like Big Little Lies and The Night Of having a child) but I do not understand the idea that Kidman is playing Celeste here. Mainly because she’s quite loud here which she wasn’…[Read more]

Ignore that account. It’s a troll one.

Anyway I have Loren in because I think she can get in like Emmanuelle Riva.

Inb4 Yahya Abdul-Mateen II becomes next year’s Lupita for Candyman.

So CBS All Access and Showtime are in a new AppleTV+ package and CBS All Access is moving into a bundle streaming service where users can watch it and catch up on Showtime and Comedy Central content.

Looks like we’re getting another litmus test as to whether The Good Fight can get any acting nominations this year or if it ends up becoming the…[Read more]

Are we overestimating Ruffalo here?

Yes the HFPA are sheep and copy the Emmys but it’s a competitive year and there are so many big names in high profile series in that category that have aired or about to air (Cranston, Grant, Hawke) and then there’s a possibility the HFPA jump on the Jackman train or that Normal People gets three noms. It’s n…[Read more]

Riz Ahmed…

Okay after getting to episode 5 of The Queen’s Gambit I don’t think Heller is happening here (I wouldn’t be surprised if she got in or even won at the Emmys though).

Also the show is now at no.1 on Netflix US today in terms of TV shows.

What do you guys have in terms of your winner…[Read more]

I’d argue Colman might be the critics push. She’s getting raves for The Father and I feel like critics are a bit snobbish to push Bakalova.

I agree. I think we’re underestimating it a LOT. Of course you might argue it’s different here in the UK because of Grant but it’s being pushed more than Big <i>Little Lies </i>was ever pushed here and is being pushed on the same level The Crown is right now imo (Grant and Kidman are doing the same interviews as Corrin and Anderson!) and the…[Read more]

Okay I just saw episode 5 and I have to agree with you know. So far out of the Limited Series that have aired I’d say it would be winning Editing.

Well I was predicting Camp but I have to say that I got to episode 5 and I’m questioning my own prediction of Heller. It isn’t just a Taylor-Joy vehicle but the supporting cast appear in some…[Read more]

People on Goldderby: You can’t compare Mulligan with Lupita?!?!?! Lupita was in a box office smash in a weak year!

Also people on Goldderby: Kirby is this year’s Lupita. Her film is going to be too inaccessible for voters even though I have’t seen it.

Glenn right now:

Well the thing is the only thing I think that can stop Insecure returning is another lockdown. Issa Rae has been doing a bunch of stuff during the pandemic and HBO have no other comedy that looks like it is going to air (apart from Betty) in time unless you count Room 104. With Barry and Curb not returning…

I’m sorry. I misconstrued your intentions although to be fair more or less every other comment about critics on this page and the previous one were like that!

This is true.

Yeah I’m glad Diana isn’t being presented as a total angel (I believe Corrin said herself that the presentation of the marriage isn’t very one sided) but I’m intrigued by how O’Connor’s awards chances are affected by his character’s shift. It could help him a lot (especially if people do end up starting The Crown from the b…[Read more]
