2011 Emmy Predictions


Outstanding Drama Series
Boardwalk Empire
Dexter
Friday Night Lights
Game of Thrones
The Good Wife
Mad Men


Gosh, Game of Thrones was certainly my favorite new show of last year. And I would certainly love for it to win. But I think it’s a toss up between Mad Men and Friday Night Lights, but maybe a little Boardwalk Empire thrown in there as a spoiler. Yet I continue to dream of a night where Westeros will win the trophy.

2011 Academy Awards: The Live-Blog


2011 Academy Awards Predictions



Best Picture:
127 Hours
Black Swan
The Fighter
Inception
The Kids Are All Right
The King's Speech
The Social Network
Toy Story 3
True Grit
Winter's Bone


This is a tight one between Black Swan, The Social Network and The King’s Speech. They each have a lot of momentum as they come into this final race of the award’s season. Personally, my giant boner for Winter’s Bone has me pulling for it. That movie really deserves it.

2011 Independent Spirit Awards: The Live-Blog

2011 Independent Spirits Awards Predictions


BEST FEATURE
127 Hours
Black Swan
Greenberg
The Kids Are All Right
Winter’s Bone


Despite having never seen Greenberg, I’m still a little surprised to see it here. Did the category need a little padding? I heard aight things about it, but they were just aight, nothing great or spectacular enough to warrant a nomination for the Best Feature. I still think I personally preferred Black Swan for its overall effect, but if there was ever a time and a place for Winter’s Bone to win this is it. It’s too quiet and still of a movie to win the big awards so I would love to see it get recognized here.
