My Oscar Predictions

February 20, 2015 John Stark

BEST PICTURE:Probably the hardest to predict category, right now. You’re gonna find almost every Oscar specialist saying it’s between Boyhood and Birdman, along with a few reminding you that American Sniper could take it all, or that Whiplash might surprise … Continue reading My Oscar Predictions

Box Office Predictions: ‘Fifty Shades’ Of A Second Victory?

February 19, 2015 John Stark

Fifty Shades Of Grey is destined for a huge tumble in week 2. It’s a Valentines entry, and it’s poorly reviewed. Even audiences only gave it a C+ cinemascore, so we can’t expect much long term. A drop of at … Continue reading Box Office Predictions: ‘Fifty Shades’ Of A Second Victory?

Weekend Box Office: ‘Fifty Shades’ Beats The Competition Into Submission

February 16, 2015 John Stark

Oh yeah, I went there. Fifty Shades Of Grey did absurdly good, opening to 81.6M over three days for a 22,400 per screen average. It’s a shame it did so well, because no one will be talking about Kingsman, which … Continue reading Weekend Box Office: ‘Fifty Shades’ Beats The Competition Into Submission

Box Office Predictions: ‘Fifty Shades’ Of Greatness?

February 12, 2015 John Stark

My gut instinct is that 60M is a lowball projection for 50 Shades of Grey. It’s a super-hyped film that has strong advance ticket sales, resulting even in some sold out showtimes already at theatres. So, while most people are … Continue reading Box Office Predictions: ‘Fifty Shades’ Of Greatness?

2014 In Review: Best Actor

February 1, 2015 John Stark

10/11) Ben Affleck (Gone Girl)/Brendan Gleeson (Calvary) I realized I couldn’t drop either actor out of my Top 10. Both deserve to be recognized this year, so I have a Top 11 instead. The role in Gone Girl was tailor … Continue reading 2014 In Review: Best Actor

2014 In Review: Best Supporting Actor

February 1, 2015 John Stark

10) Ty Burrell (The Skeleton Twins) Hey, guess what? Ty Burrell can do serious stuff too! He blew my mind in just a few scenes in The Skeleton Twins. 9) Ethan Hawke (Boyhood) He doesn’t have nearly the big scenes … Continue reading 2014 In Review: Best Supporting Actor

February 1, 2015 John Stark

2014 In Review: Best Director

February 1, 2015 John Stark

I picked the 10 directors that I felt directly influenced their films with a unique definable style and expertise. 10) Joon-ho Bong (Snowpiercer) Clearly a breakthrough in directing. Snowpiercer is definitely memorable. It’s an original work, both in theme and … Continue reading 2014 In Review: Best Director

2014 In Review: Best Screenplay, Cinematography, and Visual Effects

January 31, 2015 John Stark

Best Cinematography 10) Divergent Not really a film that you’d expect to see on “year end” awards, but there’s something about “post apocalyptic worlds” that gives a boost to the cinematographer. So do “grand sweeping epics”. Usually we don’t talk … Continue reading 2014 In Review: Best Screenplay, Cinematography, and Visual Effects
