Kidman isn’t getting nominated with such a minor role. Kidmaniacs do this every year and she comes up short every time.

So filler SAG nod

People overreact to first reactions anyway but Bombshell always looked like SAG BAIT.

Scorpion got meh reviews and the panel purposely left him and Kendrick off of the list so that Cardi would win. That was incredibly obvious.

How are the mods banning Sasha but not actual trolls saying the n-word?

The absolute reach.

The Color Purple definitely had backlash over its portrayal of black men and Steven Spielberg being the director (who was grossly snubbed) but Whoopi seemed 2nd to me. At the time, winning the Drama Globe was a big deal in terms of who was a frontrunner.

His reviews aren’t as over the top as hers (not a “GIVE HIM THE OSCAR NOW”) but the raves are definitely there. I’ve seen some “it’s his best by far”. But Judy Garland is the obvious Hollywood icon while Rudy Ray Moore was known in the blaxploitation genre so it’s not surprising that she has the more glowing ink. Still, even if Eddie Murphy was…[Read more]

Eddie Murphy at least has a comeback narrative. It’s funny it works for Renee Zellweger to the point where she’s a frontrunner while Eddie had to fight for a nom for a movie with much better reviews. All in the strength of the categories.

Apparently, Lupita and Cynthia Erivo are both going to be interviewed by Oprah together. That’s one thing, Cynthia will be extremely thirsty in her campaign. Us will be screening for guilds for the next few days as will Bombshell.

Ditto, other than Jennifer Lopez. She plays Judy as expected and it’s not even her best.

Several Globe members on Twitter have gushed over Renee Zellweger’s performance (including tea from Ana Maria Bahiana). Plus, it’s the exact type of performance that the Globes wouldn’t be able to resist anyways even if she is the sole nod for Judy.

Some of these picks are surprising.

Lemonade- Beyoncé
To Pimp a Butterfly- Kendrick Lamar
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy- Kanye West
H.E.R.- H.E.R.
A Seat at the Table- Solange
Good Kidd, Mad City- Kendrick Lamar
Channel Orange- Frank Ocean
BEYONCÉ- Beyoncé
Black Messiah- D’Angelo
4:44- Jay Z
4-Beyoncé
ANTI- Rihanna
Malibu- Anderson. Paak

This is contradictory since Al Pacino has an Oscar as well (an acting one) and this one was considered one of the weakest wins in the category. None of these arguments are convincing and all rely on subjectivity.

Incredibly overrated. The problem with Nolan is he doesn’t know how to make his characters fully realized humans. They’re always two-dimensional in a sense to drive the plot.

Beyoncé, Kendrick, Kanye, and Lana getting these repeated top placements aren’t surprising (they had some of the most acclaimed work of their respective years). Ariana is getting recency bias but critics have always liked her opposed to what GD spews.

But some of these lists are written by ill-informed people. Why the fuck is 4 considered a pop…[Read more]

That’s not a good reason for why it misses. Y’all need to stop thinking that your opinion is the reality of the situation.

Sean Penn was showier in a Clint Eastwood film.

Chastain hasn’t deserved a nomination since…..The Help? Everything she’s done after that and The Tree of Life has been so limited.
