“The Cabin” was excellent! Every thread worked beautifully together as a whole. I hope that this ends up being a series submission, b/c it shows how consistently strong this ensemble continues to be. The cabin scenes with the Big Three were great, and Justin Hartley really shined when Kevin found out about Rebecca’s diagnosis. That segued…[Read more]

“Skyfall” is when Newman was closest to win, I think. It would have been a deserved Oscar win. Hope it happens soon for him. No one needs to be the Susan Lucci of the Oscars anymore.

“Don’t Start Now” and “Physical” are both bops! Prove these bitches wrong, Ms. Lipa!

Episode Title: “The Cabin”

Synopsis: The Big Three reconnect at the family cabin.

Discuss.

He probably would have easily made it into a gendered guest actor comedy category. If Herb Edelman could make it in, pretty much anyone could.

Cox. Not even a question for me.

I guess the easy answer is any studio that went nomination-less, but that’s a development slate issue mostly. Either you have the content or you don’t. You either resonate or you don’t. I’m sure that the collective view at Neflix is one of disappointment at still not claiming the big prize. I know the talk of the town right now is Neon, and it…[Read more]

New main title design alert! A tad too long, but I really liked seeing the full trajectory of the series from Brody to now with Carrie in his shoes and everything in between. So full-circle and fitting for the final season. Tense and exciting follow-up to the premiere. You still can’t take your eyes off of Carrie Mathison. Claire Danes is as…[Read more]

This series continues to engage and mystify as it goes along. So glad to hear that the ratings are consistently rising as more viewers discover how great this is, while most people here will sleep on brilliance yet again until it maxes out on Emmy nods this summer. Anywho, this was a strong showcase for Marc Menchaca, who doesn’t have the level of…[Read more]

The trailer is out, and it’s stunning:

Premiere date is Monday, March 16, 2020.

Yes, double-digit nominations should have been perfectly attainable, and the four films that did manage to do that didn’t all deserve to do so. Of all the snubs, Song Kang-Ho and Cho Yeo-Jeong are the most egregious.

Episode Title: “In the Pines, In the Pines”

Synopsis: Holly makes a calculated attempt to help a volatile but conflicted Jack, while their whereabouts are tracked by Ralph and Alec. After she’s confronted by town gossip on her first day back at work, Glory considers Howie’s suggestion on how to secure her family’s financial future.

Discuss.

Episode Title: “Catch & Release”

Synopsis: Carrie reconnects with an old ally. Tasneem seeks counsel. Saul finds hope.

Discuss.

“Parasite.” The Netflix bias would have still hurt “Roma” for BP, even in the odd occurrence of both of them being in the same category.

Delvin not making it to the finals is somewhat sad to see. I thought for sure at least one black designer would be there, but that might not happen at all now. Or could Marquis stumble his way there instead? I don’t think that would be merited based on his collective output, but I guess stranger things have happened. A finale with Sergio,…[Read more]

This article is fascinating. Sad cautionary tale about fame and what Hollywood success can bring along with it. I’d love to see “Last Summer,” and it looks like that’s impossible to do now. RIP Catherine Burns.

This is a great theme. Sparse and haunting, for sure, but I think that fits perfectly for a Bond song. Far better than “Writing’s on the Wall” and the other forgettable themes. I doubt anything will ever top “Skyfall” for me, nor should it. Billie and Finneas delivered well here. Give credit where credit is due. They could totally win the Oscar…[Read more]

Danggg! Geoffrey just landed himself a spot in the finals now. Give it a few weeks lol.
