Top 10 – Best Films of 2009

The 10 films I found the best from the year 2009. Yes you may think its now April, but I was trying to keep it to films from 2009 based on the year they were made rather than UK release date as that is often different to the US release date. Anyway I didn’t want to end up with a confusing list not containing some of the best of 2009 because I saw them at the beginning of 2010.

Check it out see if you agree with many of the films! As I am sure some of the films included would not have been expected.

Oscars 2010 – The Show

Possibly the most predictable Oscars in recent times. But what was the show like? Well I thoroughly enjoyed it last year and that was because of host Hugh Jackman and some changes made to the show. I had also seen most of the nominated films and was much Team Rourke thinking we were going to see Mickey win for his role in “The Wrestler” a film I really loved. But that didn’t happen and then the very overrated Slumdog took the big prize, I pretty much fell out of love with the Oscars.

Oscars 2010 – Pictures

My thoughts and opinions on the Oscar’s will be coming in the next couple of days when I manage to finish watching the ceremony. So I decided to search for pictures of the winners, my favorite actors and actresses along with pictures of the winners.

Oscars 2010 – Predictions

I am afraid this is going to be my last Oscars 2010 post until some red carpet pictures and the results and my opinions on who one, how the show went and the hosts Steve Martin and my man of the moment Alec Baldwin. As I cannot as originally planned stay up to watch he ceremony. 😦

Another downside to this years Oscars, I have not managed to see many of the nominated films. Some still have not appeared in my local cinema which has been so disappointing! My predictions therefore have to be based on what I have heard about some of films and performances (and where the other awards shows have gone to).

Razzie Awards 2010 – Nominations

The awards which like to honour the worst films of the year! Yes its all just a bit of fun and to laugh at really. But the Razzie nominations were released last night, yes the day before the Oscar nominations are due out. Interesting as Sandra Bullock could end up as the best and worst actress of the year . . . you see what they have done there.

They even have worst movie, actor and actress of the decade awards to give out.

What do you make of the Razzies?

Check out the nominations

Oscars 2010 – Host’s

The nominations for this years Oscars are due to be announced in a couple of hours. Whilst looking around on the Academy Awards website I came across the poster for this years Oscars and a couple of pictures of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin. I am now even more looking forward to the Oscars following my new found fandom for Alec Baldwin! I have always loved Steve Martin in the Father of the Bride films as my guilty pleasures. I think it should be a very good show and both of them as hosts really does add something for me in the build up. It is going to be totally different to Hugh Jackman last year but best to keep changing things around I reckon.

Nancy Meyers: An Appreciation

Nancy Meyers is an American film director, producer and screenwriter. Her newest movie “It’s Complicated” starring Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin is due for release tomorrow in the UK, therefore I decided to make a blog celebrating what Nancy has done so far in the movies . . . mainly for women as that is the target audience of her movies. Making movies that other people probably wouldn’t with older actors in love stories (Somethings Gotta Give) and breaking the typical Hollywood mould, which I think is just brilliant. She is definitely one of Hollywood’s most powerful women.

She’s directed “It’s Complicated” (2009), “The Holiday” (2006), “Something’s Gotta Give” (2003), “What Women Want” (2000) and “The Parent Trap” (1998).

She’s written “It’s Complicted” (2009), “The Holiday” (2006), “Something’s Gotta Give” (2003), “The Parent Trap” (1998), “Father of the Bride Park II” (1995), “I Love Trouble” (1994), “Once Upon a Crime” (1992), “Father of the Bride” (1991), “Baby Boom” (1987) and “Private Benjamin” (1980).

She has also produced most of the movies she has written and directed.

It’s Complicated (2009) Poster 2

A second poster has been released for Nancy Meyers up and coming film starring Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin. I think this poster is much funnier than the previous which has been released. A picture of Meryl and Alec in bed, Meryl not looking too pleased and Alec having a cheeky grin is just fantastic. I really think this is on my most want to see list.

Oscars 2010 – Host’s Martin and Baldwin

Two time host Steve Martin and Academy Award nominee Alec Baldwin are widely being reported of co-hosting the 82nd Annual Academy Awards Ceremony. I think both of these choices will do a very good job of hosting the Oscars. Giving it a different spin to how Hugh Jackman hosted this years ceremony. Steve Martin having hosted twice before and being very entertaining. Alec Baldwin who is extremly witty as well as funny will bring something different again. I am sure both of these men will bounce very well off one another as well.

What does everyone else think about Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosting?
