The awards were handed out nearly a month ago and finally getting around to wrapping up the 2013-14 season. The long and short of it was the winners were ultimately predictable. Building on last year I predicted 22 out of 24 categories correctly! Only missing on Best Documentary and Best Animated Short. The telecast was fairly uneventful, Ellen got annoying by the end of it as expected, but it was bookended nicely with a much deserved Best Picture win for 12 Years A Slave.
And with that its on to the award season doldrums, the summer blockbusters are rolling out earlier year after year and Noah along with Captain America are already getting 2014 started. However the Oscar darlings won't start rearing their heads until Cannes closes in late May and from there the late summer festival circuit will start to separate the wheat from the chaff. If you've been reading thanks for tuning in, until this upcoming season (late August), happy screenings...
