  • Globes 2009-2010 Predictions~

    Like I’ve said before, my GG predictions are kinda rubbish~ So what I’ll do is list the films in the order of their chances of winning, as well as the one I want to win.

    I’ve actually seen most of the films, except for 13 (3 of which are foreign), so I think that’s pretty good.

  • Experiment Awards 2009 Nominations

    Behold!

    Nominations are done!!

    It’s actually kind of exciting, even if not that many people sent nominations. However, it’s actually a really great way to hear about all these many other films that people mentioned so many times, and I knew nothing about.

    Of course, if more people had actually sent nominations, the experiment would’ve worked better. Maybe next time… so watch many more films this 2010, so you can participate next time around.

  • 2009 Online Film Critics Nominations

    Actually, this is the happiest I felt with nominations…
    let’s wait to see who wins~~~

    However, still important omissions for Moon, as well as Mary and Max. But loads of love for Hurt Locker (7), Basterds (8), and Up in the Air (5), and both Up and District 9 with 4 nods.

    It’s been a good year for Sci-Fi.

  • Memories of a Decade in Films

    at Cinencuentro again!

    This time around pointing out some experiences while watching those films, which doesn’t necessarily reflect what I consider the best… keyword, necessary.

    Sorry, only in Spanish.

    check it out here.


  • Where the Wild Things Are Gets Some Chicago Love~

    And the nominations and winners continue, this time with the Chicago Critics’ nominations (and tomorrow with the SAG nominations). It is a busy time.

    Leading the nominees with six is one of the many awards favorites, Jason Reitman’s Up In The Air. But hold on just a moment. It has a co-pilot. Also riding a wave of six nominations is Spike Jonze’s adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are,

    Joining both films in the Best Picture race from Chicago are Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker, Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds (each with five nominations) and Joel & Ethan Coen’s A Serious Man with 4.

    some nice changes and surprises!
    check the nominees!

  • Golden Globe Nominations 2009

    Nominations are in! Just with a quick look, I’ve only seen 60% of the nominees, so I’m excited to see the rest. Looking good for some of those peoples there. Not really big surprises, except for a couple double nominations  and one double nomination in a category… and some new names in the Foreign category.

    My scandalous and ironic side says Peruvians will hate Chile even more (for unnecessary issues) – dearest The Milk of Sorrow didn’t make it to the list.

    Also! Jumpy claps for Glee!! and Jumpy bloody hands for Dexter!!

  • 15th Critics Choice Awards Nominations

    More nominations. Are you keeping up?

    These nominations seem like a pretty random bunch. Especially considering Nine has had little to no love until now… with 10 nominations (a big WEEEE for Marion!!), and also finally some love true for Inglourious Basterds~

  • Tarantino Plays Aya Ueto’s Uncle on New Softbank CM

    I actually had read about this before, and wasn’t gonna make a big deal about it, but CM is kinda funny especially listening to Tarantino speak Japanese. xD “Tara-chan desu!” – the concept is easy to follow.

    He’s all I’m Tara-chan, and then goes all gibberish. Then his wife calls and tells him to come back home. LOL


  • National Board of Review 2009 Winners

    I think Julz is going to be VERY happy.

    The National Board of Review named Up in the Air as the best film of the year. And like the Examiner mentions on its article… is this backlash against Mo’Nique’s refusal to promote the film and piss on her Oscar chances? Woah, that’s like a mafia. LOL

    Clint Eastwood was named Best Director for Invictus, but like The Envelope says… Eastwood is a NBR fave. It really IS like a mafia~~~
