What If Lisa Picked The Oscar Nominees: 2017 Edition

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

With the Oscar nominations due to be announced tomorrow, now is the time that the Shattered Lens indulges in a little something called, “What if Lisa had all the power.” Listed below are my personal Oscar nominations. Please note that these are not the films that I necessarily think will be nominated. The fact of the matter is that the many of them will not. Instead, these are the films that would be nominated if I was solely responsible for deciding the nominees this year. Winners are starred and listed in bold.

(You’ll also note that I’ve added four categories, all of which I believe the Academy should adopt — Best Voice-Over Performance, Best Casting, Best Stunt Work, and Best Overall Use Of Music In A Film.)

(Click on the links to see my nominations for 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, and 2010!)

Belatedly, Here Are The Nominations of the North Texas Film Critics!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Two days ago, the North Texas Film Critics Association announced their nominations for the best of 2017!

On twitter, there’s been a lot of speculation as to why the NTFCA totally snubbed Call Me By Your Name in their nominations.  Hilariously, some people — all from out-of-state, of course — are assuming that the NTFCA must be made up of evangelical, right-wingers because it’s a Texas organization.  Seriously, those people have no idea how left-wing most members of the Texas media are.  Texas may be a Republican state but most of our native film critics are somewhere to the left of Bernie Sanders.

Anyway, here are the nominees:

The San Diego Film Critics Society Name Get Out The Best of 2017!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Hi, everyone!

So, I have to admit that I have a love/hate relationship with the awards season.  There are just so many different groups that give out awards in December.  Trying to keep up with them is such a chore.  I’m about to post all of the latest winners and nominees and it’s probably going to take me more than a few hours to do so.

And yet, at the same time, I absolutely love this stuff.  I love the lists.  I love the speculation.  I love that this is the period of time when we can say, “What if Get Out does end up winning best picture?  What if Patrick Stewart picks up a best supporting actor nomination for Logan?”  This is the storm before the calm of the Oscar nominations.  This is the time when it seems like anything’s possible.

Anyway, I guess I better get started because apparently, over the past few days, a hundred different organizations have announced their picks for the best of 2017.

We’ll start with the San Diego Film Critics.  You can see their nominations here and their winners below!
