Precursor: 19th Art Directors Guild Awards (2014)
Suffice it to say, The Grand Budapet Hotel looks to be the only sure thing in the tech categories this year. Winning out over modest competition is one thing, but having its primary competition (Into the Woods) go down to a Marvel blockbuster suggests it should have smoother sailing from here on out. The only…

Precursor: 28th USC Scripter Awards (2014)
With so few films making it through to the Oscars, a win here can only bolster the winner’s chance at the Academy Awards. This should definitely give it a bit of a boost, but a Writers Guild of America award would probably be more helpful at this point. The Awards Best Adapted Screenplay The Imitation…

Precursor: 23rd Annie Awards (2014)
Winning only one award, The Lego Movie proved it wasn’t nearly as popular as many thought. That DreamWorks has an advantage with ASIFA’s Annie Awards only helped How to Train Your Dragon 2 capture 6 trophies, including Best Animated Feature. It gives those voting for the Oscar some guidance without Lego Movie in the competition.…

Precursor: 54th American Cinema Editors Awards (2014)
It does not appear that anything can stop Boyhood. A film that may have spliced together 12 years of footage is still a rather conventional editing piece. When the guild has films like American Sniper, Gone Girl, Nightcrawler and Whiplash to honor, simply going with Boyhood is bandwagoning to the utmost. The Awards Best Drama…

2014 Precursor Predictions: USC Scripter Awards
The USC Scripter Awards are given out by the University of Southern California Libraries as a fundraiser of sorts. They are shown live on the internet every year and are often a bit more entertaining and engaging than some televised awards shows. The award goes to the author of the original work and the screenwriter…

2014 Precursor Predictions: Annie Awards
The Annie Awards are the premier organization honoring animation. They have a number of categories the Oscars don’t have (naturally) and they present them in an annual webcast presentation that has some funny moments, but is generally more weakly produced than their televised rivals. Thomas and I both made prediction in all categories, but we…
