53) Raul Castillo – We the AnimalsAugust 27, 2019 at 4:52 am #1203042436I don’t personally believe Shawn to be racist, especially if the primary argument is the afro Snapchat. That post is, in no way, remotely racist. His “light skin girls >>>” tweet was a little less tasteful, but I wouldn’t deem it a blatant example of racism either. However, I would consider his documented use of the N-word in past tweets as insensitive. His apology, although fairly lackluster, seems appropriate and it would be absolutely ridiculous to crucify someone for slightly problematic behavior they exhibited when they were a teenager when he did actually take responsibility and apologized.
On the other hand, there is legitimate proof of Camila Cabello repeatedly using the N-word in a derogatory manner, specifically towards former band-mate Normani. Beyond the cyber-bullying, she also posted a rape joke a few years back. As I stated before, individuals should be given the opportunity to grow and acknowledge that their behavior was problematic. However, her “apology” from 2018 lacked any sincerity and basically articulated that she didn’t feel the need to do so because the internet is a critical place. She has truly never taken responsibility for her disgusting internet presence as a teenager and I doubt she ever will. If anyone should be receiving flack in this situation, it should be Camila. The fact that she is taken seriously as an artist by anyone is a embarrassment to the music industry.

Shailene Woodley was the MVP for me. She should have Dern’s Emmy.

ReplyAugust 22, 2019 at 8:47 am #1203034962It’s between her, Shaw and Headey. If you’re predicting Headey, you need to be predicting a near sweep for GOT (Dinklage, possibly Clarke, Van Houten, writing/directing) because that’s the only scenario where she wins.
I don’t think Clarke or Van Houten need to win for Headey to do so. Headey has a better track record at the Emmys than both of them combined, so her win is not dependent on either of them prevailing. Van Houten also is stacked against Rashad, Tyson, and Lange, whereas Headey is competing with Fiona Shaw and three of her costars. Clarke is a longshot and her winning isn’t happening with both of the Killing Eve stars in the mix. Even Mandy Moore is gonna steal votes from Clarke.
August 21, 2019 at 12:06 pm #1203033635I find it interesting Dern wasn’t even in either of the teasers. I know she’s a supporting player but considering the buzz from her performance/role in this I was just surprised she wasn’t even shown unless I missed it.
Regardless, I think both Driver and Johansson look great. I could see both of them becoming frontrunners if the reception is good. I think Johansson’s biggest hurdle will be getting the nomination.
She appears very briefly in the courtroom scene, seated near Scarlett’s character.
I actually think this was a smart move. If the courtroom scene truly is as meaty as it has been proclaimed to be, the teaser was an excellent sampling for the movie without giving away too much. That approach could allow Dern to be a surprise knockout once the film is released and people actually get a taste of the performance. Likewise, if they held off on a lot of the emotional parts of Driver and Johansson’s performances, they could exceed expectations and break into the race in the top tiers of their respective categories.
ReplyAugust 20, 2019 at 8:06 am #1203031478I have to ask: why do you think that? I’m a superfan of them and this isn’t the first time I heard someone say that they didn’t like it….most of them becuase they thought it was too “Pop-ish”
There music seems to be gearing towards an audience of white suburban mothers in how “radio-friendly” it has become. Brendon Urie’s voice has always bothered me, but it really has gotten bad with their recent singles. The album itself is also fairly lackluster when you look at their previous work.
ReplyAugust 17, 2019 at 7:42 am #1203027784I really would be fine with either DiCaprio or Egerton getting the Globe at this point. Both performances were extremely impressive. Had Bohemian Rhapsody never happened, Egerton would probably sweep it, but I’ll accept DiCaprio, considering he’ll probably get the Oscar nom anyways.
August 17, 2019 at 7:39 am #1203027776PANIC! at the Disco’s Pray for the Wicked album is garbage and deserves to be set on fire.
Chris Brown needs to be cancelled entirely and the fact that he still gets work is incredibly disappointed. The fact that the general public will still listen to his music is shameful and there needs to be an additional movement to end his career. The way he has treated MULTIPLE women in the industry is disgusting and people like Drake and Bieber deserve flack for defending him.
Adam Levine is a shitty human being and Maroon 5 absolutely deserves to be omitted from award show contention after Levine’s lamentations about how award shows mistreat them.
Christina Aguilera should have been bigger. Bionic was truly ahead of its time. Lotus was a pretty mediocre record, but 2010 – 2011 alone should have shot her to higher heights of fame. Had she not fucked up the National Anthem and remained skinny / touring, she would have been much more prominent.
Britney Spears needs to stop performing. Her dancing hasn’t been the same since the early 2000s.
Demi Lovato should be bigger. Her vocals are incredible. Her lack of a filter just keeps her fame from progressing to the levels of the other ex-acts. Give Your Heart a Break was an underappreciated bop.
Shawn Mendes is a truly awful singer that blatantly uses auto-tune and gimmicky vocals.
Normani > Camila. The disparity in talent is insane.
Charlie Puth ruins literally any record he is involved with. The “Easier” remix is almost unlistenable.
Billie Eilish was cool for a hot second, but she really does not sing. It’s the most gimmicked approach to creating vocals and her interviews seem to force the “tortured teenager” image to such an extreme. I understand that she has mentioned to have struggled with depression, but it seems like she overemphasizes a depressed persona and uses certain phrases to attempt to convey an underlying component that isn’t truly there.
Anne Marie and Zara Larsson deserve to be bigger. I would say the same about Mabel, but she can’t sing live.
ReplyAugust 17, 2019 at 7:08 am #1203027731Bradley Cooper seems like he is going to get an overdue narrative started pretty soon. The Academy clearly likes him, considering he scored three consecutive nominations. With four acting nominations under his belt, if he continues to wear multiple hats in the film industry, he should snag an award eventually.
ReplyAugust 6, 2019 at 8:54 pm #1203013481Don Cheadle. He remains without a major industry award, yet has accumulated significant critical acclaim. Hader seems like a lock, but this would certainly be an upset for the ages.
ReplyAugust 5, 2019 at 6:26 pm #1203011852I wouldn’t be surprised if Joker flops. I can see Phoenix delivering, but the film getting lackluster reviews, similarly to Venom with Tom Hardy.
