I have always had a passion for film. I also have my own film reviewing blog. I just received my Associate's and am going for my Bachelor's in English as I hope to have some kind of career in storytelling.

In my opinion, The Handmaid’s Tale is better than every film I’ve seen so far this year. It’s just THAT good.
Elisabeth Moss who anchors the show is aces and I hope she gets nominated for Best Actress In A Drama Series. I also think you could give the supporting actresses are in a category of their own because they are all terrific as well. Between all of them, I think Ann Dowd could get nominated because she has the showy villain role or even Yvonne Strahovski because of that big moment she has in E3. But Samara Wiley and especially Alexis Bledel deserve attention as well.
ReplyWhile I don’t normally keep track of the Guest Acting races, one name I may keep an eye on for Actor In A Comedy Series is Chris Pratt in Mom. I have a sense that given how he’s become a movie star, they may want to honor him for going back to his television roots.
ReplyI think now that Alison Janney has gone Lead for Mom, that just allows an easier path for Kate McKinnon to repeat in this category. Mainly because she managed to already top herself. I mean, even in just one episode this season, she was Kellyanne Conway, Jeff Sessions, and Elizabeth Warren.

Zootopia could be a BP contender if Disney plays up the “It’s an important film” narrative. It does capture the state of prejudice going on in our country today. Also, it has the reviews and the box office to back it up.
ReplyI really want Roadside Attractions to remind people how amazing Sally Field is in Hello, My Name Is Doris. It’s the best female lead performance so far this year.
ReplyTilda Swinton. No contest. She should’ve been nominated for “Chronicles of Narnia,” “Julia,” “We Need To Talk About Kevin,” and “Snowpiercer.” I would argue she’s even awards worthy in “A Bigger Splash” and she was one of the best things about “Hail, Caesar!” This woman is just a dynamic performer.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer:
Overrated: I might have to go with Bad Girls (season three). It isn’t a terrible episode. In fact, it was a significant turning point for Faith. But I thought it had a very poor “villain of the week.”
Also, Doppelgangland (season three). Don’t really know what its purpose was.
Underrated: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered (season three). It was pretty hilarious watching all the women of Sunnydale pining over Xander.
Tough Love (season five). Season Five had my favorite Big Bad of the show, Glory, and this episode showed just how far she would go to claim the Key she’s been hunting for throughout the season. Also, it showed how Willow will resort to dark magic she would eventually become addicted to in the next season.
ReplyI think a Kate McKinnon win isn’t out of the question. She’s having a pretty big year since she also received MVP notices for Ghostbusters. A win could mirror that of her Ghostbusters co-star Melissa McCarthy who won the year she had Bridesmaids, another Paul Feig comedy.
ReplyAmy Poehler always losing Best Actress for Parks and Recreation. Especially for the last season. That was a perfect opportunity to award her yet they gave another one to Julia Louis-Dreyfus. I got nothing against JLD but must she win every year?
ReplyMichael Fassbender. No matter how many b.o. flops he may have and awards he loses, I always stick by him and see his stuff.
Ben Mendelsohn. I’ve only seen about six of his movies and I already think he’s the second best actor working today right behind Fassbender.
Lupita Nyong’o. I REALLY want Lupita Nyong’o to succeed in Hollywood. We’ve only heard her since her Oscar win but I want to actually see her.
Brie Larson. I’ve been a fan of hers since “Scott Pilgrim” and I’m so happy she’s getting the recognition she deserves.
