Oscars 2021: Complete List of Academy Award Winners and Nominees (Updating Live)

New DVD release, , , , , ,
That was a bit of a long engagement wasn’t it? In most years, the Oscars are a distant memory by mid-March, but here we are approaching the end of April and we still don’t (technically) know who the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences anointed as Best Picture of the Year. That’s about to change tonight. Oscars 2021 are here, and with them we realize the strange year that was 2020 might finally be in the rearview. Still, it doesn’t mean we cannot celebrate some of the best cinematic escapes and distractions we had recently. While this year’s nominees…

Oscars 2021: Complete List of Nominees

New DVD release, ,
At last the Academy Awards are here. For a brief time–like about a year ago when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences pushed the Oscars into April–there was apprehension about whether there would even be enough films in 2020 to qualify as a competitive year. And yet, 2020 (as well as the early months of 2021) has turned out to be a boon for quality, memorable cinema that has been both a cathartic respite and release from the year that was. The obvious frontrunners are still running in front in the below nominations list. Chloé Zhao’s Nomadland remains…

New DVD release,
The Game Awards 2020 are almost here, which means that it’s almost time for what’s quickly become one of the gaming industry’s biggest events of the year. While The Game Awards has become one of the best sources for new game announcements and trailers outside of E3, the show still focuses on honoring the year’s best games. Granted, 2020 has been an unusual year, to say the least, but you wouldn’t know it just by looking at the list of The Game Awards 2020 nominees, which include not only the year’s best games but some of the best games in…

Oscars Reveal Standards for Inclusion and Diversity for Best Picture Nominees

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Five years. That’s how long it’s been since the social media hashtag “#OscarsSoWhite” was created. Coined by April Reign in response to all 20 of the slots available to actors and actresses going to white performers, the phrase encapsulated a basic question about our culture that has come to challenge the status quo of the entertainment industry and beyond: Who determines excellence and why do their choices look so homogenous? The Oscars have fitfully begun addressing these issues over the last few years—particularly after in 2016 all 20 acting nominations were held by white thespians again—but now for the first…

Emmys 2020 Nominations: Complete List of Nominees Revealed

New DVD release, , , ,
Sometimes Emmy Award ceremonies can blend together. How can one differentiate among all the years Bryan Cranston or Modern Family won gold? Well there’s little risk in the Emmy Awards of 2020 blending together with all the others. It’s not because some familiar shows won’t win (Succession, Ozark, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel all seem primed for repeats). It’s because the format will be remarkably different. Like just about everything else right now, the 2020 Emmy Awards on September 20, 2020 are going virtual. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, large gatherings are banned in many places around the world, and…
