Looking at the Weekend: Dec. 12-14, 2014
The Hunger Games‘ reign is about to come to an end as Ridley Scott’s Bible epic Exodus: Gods and Kings competes for box office dollars. The film’s success depends entirely on attendance from church groups as I don’t think it’s going to be too big of a cross-demographic hit. Individual Commentaries Wesley Lovell: Inherent Vice…

2014 Summer Season Preview Wrap-Up: July
July 2, 2014 Deliver Us from Evil Box Office Prediction: $20 M Box Office Expectations: What I Said: “Uncertain. The trailers get some of the peril right, but make this look more like a supernatural thriller rather than a supernatural horror film and none of that may be very convincing to an audience that’s growing…

Precursor: 21st Screen Actors Guild Nominations (2014)
The nominations have been announced. Rumors that the SAG nominations committee didn’t get to see Selma in time are proven true with the film completely shut out. The last-minute push for Jennifer Aniston paid off, but her nomination will very likely be replaced at the Oscars. The big surprises here are Naomi Watts’ out-of-nowhere nomination…

The DVD Report #390
New This Week Arguably the third greatest movie of Hollywood’s greatest year behind Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz, no one who didn’t get to see Frank Capra’s Mr. Smith Goes to Washington shortly after its release in October 1939 has seen the film as it was originally intended.

Precursor: 14th Phoenix Critics Nominations (2014)
One of the film critic groups that seems to most closely mirror Academy tastes, Phoenix Film Critics have selected a varied, but mainstream group of selections. It’s clear they didn’t get to screen Selma in time or I would suspect it to get a lot more love than this. At least they had the good…

In spite of a recent turn towards prescient Oscar prognosticator, the OFCS has gone off the beaten path selecting a large number of films and performances that aren’t likely to translate into Oscar nominees. They are, if nothing else, striking out in a different direction than most other critics groups this year (so far). Nominations…

Precursor: 14th American Film Institute (2014)
The ten best American-made films for 2014 have been announced. Nothing terribly earth shattering on this list.
