25th Annual Producers Guild Awards

I don't usually focus on this, but I wanted to take a look this year, not least because of the groundbreaking tie. The 25th Annual PGAs were on January 19th, and I've been hearing about that tie ever since! I'm not sure how I feel about it yet but I wanted to share the awards list. I also am so excited to see that Lizzie Bennet was nominated for Outstanding Digital Series, and wanted to share that love. Literally one of the best creations I've seen, and I love that it was all available (and is still all available) free on YouTube. As usual, the winners are bolded.

LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
Rita Moreno


I feel like Rob Lowe is STILL a teen heartthrob. An all ages heartthrob.

I love Steve Coogan! He gets nowhere near enough love. He's brilliant, and also brilliantly funny.

Oh Cuba Gooding Jr! I haven't seen anything from him lately. I'm excited to see him again.

Did Brad Pitt shape his hair like that for a role? Interesting haircut.

Matt Damon and glasses = ideal. But also, thanks for being amazing.

Shockingly, I was NOT spoiled for these awards! This is all brand new information. NOTE: I saw August: Osage County, and it was spectacular to me. Well deserved nominations for Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep. Also, can we talk about Benedict Cumberbatch MORE PLEASE?

LOVE that - "shining a light under the floorboards of this nation and showing what we stand on." A really affecting line from Lupita's speech. And a shoutout to Yale Drama."Do you know Brad Pitt, Daddy? I'm going to be in a movie with him." "I don't know him personally, but I'm glad you got a job." Amazing anecdote!

Well, at least Jeremy Renner got to BE THERE. STILL MAD ABOUT THE LACK OF RECOGNITION.

There has been a lot of controversy on my Twitter feed about American Hustle lately, but I am firmly in the 'I love it' camp.

I am really glad to see a newcomer getting such great recognition, especially for what seems to be kind of a scary role. It's important to recognise newcomers in their own right, and not just as newcomers, as many award shows seem to do. Barkhad Abdi FTW!

I had NO IDEA Jared Leto hadn't ever been nominated for a SAG before. Travesty, but I'm so glad that he did get to win. "Wonderful tribe of dreamers" - love that description of SAG-AFTRA!And thank you, Jared, for dedicating it to those who have been affected by this disease. This is so important; I believe it's way more important than thanking people who got the performer the job or the like; it almost makes people forget who the film would really impact, especially when it comes to iconic stories such as this. I need to see Dallas Buyers Club very soon.

Tina Fey's last nomination for 30 Rock! Kind of bittersweet. But well deserved.

Bahahaha adorable acceptance speech from Julia Louis-Dreyfus! Sometimes the comedy bits get tired, but this one stayed fresh and funny!

I love to watch those camera shots when the subjects have no idea they're being filmed. Dame Helen Mirren looked like she was about to fall asleep.

DID I JUST NOT KNOW THAT JOHN CUSACK IS IN THE BUTLER? (Also, why do we always have to call it Lee Daniels' The Butler? I understand he made it, but I've never really understood the practice of owning a film in that way.)

Fourth consecutive win for Modern Family ensemble! People truly love this show. I do enjoy it. Also, "we're going to make Sofia talk, because America loves her and her boobs." This is very true.

I'm a big fan of presidents' speeches, actually. Always interesting to see the people behind these organisations! Also, you gotta love the Dakota Fanning shout out. (I'M FOUR YEARS OLDER THAN DAKOTA FANNING, IN OTHER WORDS. MY LIFE IS NOTHING.)

I feel like Elisabeth Moss is actually adorable. She looks so happy for Helen - and that's such a great thing to see. And Helen just returned that - oh my goodness! She gave her a special round of applause, from herself. If I were Elisabeth, I would probably flip out.

EMMA THOMPSON FOR HOSTING ALL THE AWARD SHOWS EVER. Preferably including Ewan McGregor with that fantastic hair.

You gotta love EGOTs! There's only been eleven so far. I'm always rooting for people to get there; it's such an achievement. And Rita Moreno is well deserving! This woman. This. Woman. This actress. (And yes, I say actress. That's a WHOLE other blog post.) Getting to hear her sing on her feet is phenomenal as well. My mum also just said she's better than Diane Keaton. WELL, YEAH.

The In Memoriam section always makes me cry. But it's so important to have. Although it also makes me a little sad that sometimes people die, and you have no idea, because they didn't fit the definition of being famous anymore. It's weird to think of how the media explodes about certain deaths, but not others. It also makes you think about death and how people react to it. But I think In Memoriam segments are a great way of remembering and honouring those who have passed.

Critics' Choice Awards - Winners - 2014

Just keeping up with the awards! Bolded are the winners. The 19th Annual Critics' Choice Awards just occurred. We're on the road! The SAG Awards are airing TOMORROW, January 18, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I have the right channels in order to liveblog!

CECIL B. DEMILLE AWARD
Woody Allen

8:02pm Already loving Tina and Amy. These two women are some of the smartest and funniest women in Hollywood, if not THE smartest and funniest. Great shout out to Robert Redford too! Matt Damon's face is like, 'Uh oh.' He has a great sense of humour though.

8:03pm Loving Meryl's glasses. "Meryl Streep's over 60." ACCURATE. Still great parts for Meryl, mostly because she makes them great.

8:04pm "Explosion at the Wig Factory" would definitely make a GREAT alternate title for American Hustle. Also, focusing on Jennifer Lawrence as Amy Poehler is pretty phenomenal.

8:05pm Woody Allen is winning the Cecil B. DeMille award! "Award for tiniest man with the biggest glasses." Martin Scorsese won it a few years ago! And PRETTY GREAT George Clooney burn! ("He would rather float into space than spend another minute with a woman who's his age." PARAPHRASED.)

8:06pm Yes, shout out to Her. "Takes place in the not so distant future, which is good, since so does Joaquin Phoenix." Still beyond annoyed that Scarlett Johansson got no recognition for her role.

8:08pm Over 500 instances of swearing in Wolf of Wall Street, and I would have thought it was WAY more. And they carefully avoided any in-poor-taste jokes about 12 Years a Slave.

8:09pm Ladies, kick off your shoes, and men, try them on and see how terrible they are. Thank you, Amy Poehler. I wonder how long they're going to keep the weird Tom Hanks pronunciation going.

8:11pm CALLED IT. Could have said JLaw would get Best Supporting Actress. I love how shocked she is all the time. She's lovely, despite the lack of filter.

8:18pm Gotta love when Jacqueline Bisset swore. Don't be afraid to do that, although they were on top of their bleeping. She seemed extremely overwhelmed, but I will definitely have to see Dancing on the Edge to see where this win came from.

8:27pm Elisabeth Moss beats out Helen Mirren and Jessica Lange. This is amazing. This is a good indication for the rest of the award season!

8:28pm "It's me, the garbage man. Who forgot his glasses. Fantastic." Matt Damon is a great love of mine. What a cutie.

8:34pm How LONG did it take Tina and Amy to say those names with no stumbling or laughing? These women. I tell ya.

8:35pm I am loving this President of the HFP. "Bathroom break time for those at home." I love to recognise everyone who made these things, and things every day, happen.

8:36pm If you don't appreciate stage managers, production managers, production assistants - just imagine how AWKWARD it would have been if one of these integral backstage people hadn't handed Jonah Hill and Margo that piece of paper! Wrong teleprompter information helps no one!

8:47pm It's the real Philomena Lee! This is amazing! It's an extraordinary thing to show the person the film was based upon.

9:08pm Amy DESERVES this Globe for American Hustle. She was phenomenal, as always.

9:18pm I didn't really expect Tatiana to win. It would have been cool, but first time nomination against these seasoned actresses - it was unlikely. But it would have been awesome. Despite not having had a chance to watch Orphan Black.

9:19pm OH JIM. The Shia crack. So accurate, yet so heartbreaking. Shia has been saying...well, things. Lately. Oh dear.

9:23pm I haven't seen Dallas Buyers Club but I have heard spectacular things about it, particularly about Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto. They seem like iconic roles. I can't wait to see it, but I'm also happy to see Jared get some recognition. He is super talented.

9:30pm Emma Thompson is literally one of the most talented women out there right now. She can be hilarious and also beautifully intense. But I think people often forget how absolutely fall on the floor hilarious she can be, and I'm glad to see it in evidence with that whole shoe bit tonight. So wonderful. And Spike Jonze wins Best Screenplay for Her, and if you've seen it - you get it.

9:37pm I just saw Matt Damon and Ben Affleck together. They still look to be great friends. Which is obvious. I just really love their partnerships. They play so well off of each other, and they work and create amazing things together. I occasionally go through phases of not being able to get enough of them. It's always nice to see long lasting friendships, as well as long lasting marriages.

11pm And that marks the end of another Golden Globes broadcast! (And it shockingly ended on time.) I noticed a ton of outrage over the fact that 12 Years a Slave got so little recognition. The actual swearing I saw when Matthew McConaughey won for Best Actor was actually surprising. But I haven't seen Dallas Buyers Club or 12 Years a Slave, so I can't pass real judgement on whether or not one of them should have won over the other. But this was...well, this was an experience. Nothing too crazy happened, a lot of people seemed pretty darn drunk, and it gives a relatively good indication of who is likely to win the Oscars. I will be taking some time off to do this whole liveblogging and livetweeting thing again on March 2nd, for sure, for the Academy Awards! See you then.
