HOLLYWOOD—The nominees for the 2025 British Academy of Film and Theatre Arts (BAFTA) were released during the wee hours of Wednesday morning January 15. Yes, this awards season has been a bit unorthodox as a result of wildfires that are plaguing the Southern Los Angeles region in the past week. Were there surprises? You bet and it makes an...

HOLLYWOOD—Things picked up precisely where they left off from last week’s episode of “The Oval” with theatrics inside The Oval. This week’s episode, ‘Blow for Blow’ saw Eli wanting answers from Simone and Bobby about that potential hookup that Sam hinted. Jeez, I got so annoyed that I thought a massive secret was about to explode only for Tyler...

BEVERLY HILLS—This feels like a different Awards Season because their isn’t that clear cut movie or two that is the front-runner in my opinion.

Yeah, the fire-making...

HOLLYWOOD—I’m a fan of horror movies, but in particular “Scream” has been a franchise that holds a special place in my heart. It changed the genre as we know it in 1996, not to mention it delivered one of the best sequels to date with a reveal at the end that left me and many aghast in “Scream 2.”...

HOLLYWOOD—Yeah, I cannot believe that “Survivor” is actually doing something that it has never done before. A finale that was broken down into two parts. Yeah, not only shocking, but beyond strange and just odd for reasons I cannot fathom with actually words. This episode was two hours, yes, it felt like a finale, but it was not, and...

HOLLYWOOD—The nominees for the 2025 Critic’s Choice Awards were unveiled on Thursday, December 12. Do I personally think they have an impact on Awards Season? No, plain and simple, they can create buzz, but they are in no way a predictor of what the Screen Actors Guild, Writers Guild, Directors Guild or the Academy Awards will pick as their...
