    Box Office History (Week 51, 2024)

    Every week, we’ll take a look back at how Oscar-nominated films performed at the box office. Due to the lack of data prior to 1980, some of these early years may have minimal information. From the mid-1990s back to 1980, the data exists, but is sometimes spotty. Everything after that should be accurate. We’ll look…

    Utah’s critics love The Brutalist as well as Conclave and Dune: Part Two plus Nosferatu and The Substance. Nothing genuinely earthshattering in the tallies, though the presence of Tuesday in the top category plus Best Actress is a bit of a surprise.

    Another early announcer I missed and this one makes an interesting case of what the guild likes that the Academy’s members didn’t. The Apprentice, Dune: Part Two, and Waltzing with Brando didn’t make the cut with the guild while top nominees The Deliverance and The Substance were skunked by the Academy. Nominations Tallies (3) Beetlejuice…

    The Annie Award nominations came out earlier this month when I wasn’t paying enough attention. The easy winner is The Wild Robot, though Inside Out 2 and Wallace & Gromit also did well. Not doing as well as it should have were Flow and Memoir of a Snail, which barely earned nominations, though they at…

    27th Costume Designers Guild Nominations

    I’m quite surprised so many guilds are announcing so far in advance. I missed three important groups because of this but we’ve got them now, so looking over these, there are some surprises such as no Blitz or The Brutalist, both not benefiting from past pro-WWI history with the guilds. Most of my expected nominees…
