Next up in the Oscar preview is looking at the performances which have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor. This race has heated up a little bit over the past few weeks after everyone thought it was a clear run for Ali.
Remind yourself of the nominees and don’t forget to say who you want to win!
As much as I love La La Land, I really do want to see BAFTA really honour I, Daniel Blake as thought it was a remarkable film. (Even if they did snub Dave Johns for the leading role)

Having a look at some of the films that I was left rather disappointed with in 2016, that is often due to the hype surrounding them before you get to watch them. I have noticed that Comic Book based films seem to take up most of this list. Surely that just shows that we have way too many over the past few years and it has now past the point of no return in getting loads of them each year.
Here you can see the films that I caught at the cinema during 2016!
Best Drama
Hacksaw Ridge
Hell or High Water
Lion

I am going to make a monthly post from now on having a little look back at how many films I managed to catch at the cinema. I will also be picking my film and performances of the month!
I thought it would also be a great idea to highlight the amazing value for money a Cineworld Unlimted Card is at £17.40 per month and seeing six films that meant I paid £2.90 for each film!
I managed to see the following films:
6th – The Light Between Oceans
9th – Nocturnal Animals
16th – Arrival
18th – Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
22nd – Allied
30th – The Edge of Seventeen
