Some heavy hitters here. Richard Jenkins for Olive Kitteridge, Chiwetel Ejiofor for Nightingale, and Ricky Gervais for Derek, should all get nominations. The last two spots… maybe Mark Rylance for Wolf Hall, or Adrien Brody for Houdini. There’s also Bill … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Best Actor/Actress In A Movie/Mini/Limited Series
Matt Damon stars in The Martian, based on the best-selling book about an astronaut stranded on Mars, who must signal Earth that he is still alive, but also survive with dwindling resources. It’s slated for release this November, and looks … Continue reading Hot New Trailer: The Martian
Starring: Joel Edgerton, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sarah Jane Potts, Nick Frost Kinky Boots launched both Joel Edgerton and Chiwetel Ejiofor into Hollywood’s casting eye. For good reason. Ejiofor is an obvious force to be reckoned with. It’s funny that I’ve seen … Continue reading Kinky Boots

Billy Bob Thornton is a must for Fargo, as a movie star dabbling in TV. He likely won’t win though, because another movie star… Mark Ruffalo turned in an equally impressive performance in The Normal Heart. Benedict Cumberbatch is also a … Continue reading EMMY WATCH: Best Actor In A Miniseries or Movie

I really don’t get the love for Spring Breakers. I thought it was unwatchable. James Franco picks up a Supporting Actor nomination, and Skrillex is nominated for their obnoxious score. BEST PICTURE 12 Years A Slave American Hustle Gravity Her … Continue reading Awards Watch: Chicago Film Critics Nominations, Includes James Franco
The Golden Globes SHUT OUT The Butler. Wow. Another surprise was no nomination for James Gandolfini, but they nominated Julia Louis Dreyfus anyway for Enough Said. Greta Gerwig snuck in a nomination.
