Chaos Movie Awards 2021

Posted by Bryan Caron in Best of, Commentary, Entertainment, Film, Movies, Reviews on April 25, 2021

With all the studios halting production and theaters closing around the world for the majority of the year, one had to wonder if Hollywood would even have anything to award this year. Luckily, streaming had already made a big impact in the film industry (garnering over 24 nominations last year and a whopping 47 nominations this year, 34 by Netflix alone), so there was never going to be a complete absence of options to choose from when it came to new and exciting material.

I do have to say up front, I didn’t see a lot of the movies that were eventually nominated by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, so attempting to pick winners will be somewhat difficult for me this year. When did that stop anyone from trying, though. Below are my picks for who will and should win at this year’s Academy Awards, and as usual, a few of my own awards for other films I thought should be highlighted.

My Picks

Academy Awards, Black Beauty, Carey Mulligan, Chadwick Boseman, Emerald Fennell, Emma, Entertainment, Film, Frances McDormand, Helena Zengel, I Still Believe, Lakeith Stanfield, Lee Isaac Chung, Leigh Whannell, Minari, Movies, News of the World, Nomadland, Olivia Colman, Onward, Oscar, Oscars, Reviews, Sash Baron Cohen, Soul, The Father, The Invisible Man, The Trial of the Chicago 7

Chaos Movie Awards 2020

The 92nd Academy Awards are mere hours away, and the biggest news coming out of this year’s awards nominations is Netflix’s instant emergence as a heavy hitter among the major studios. Between The Irishman, Marriage Story and a handful of other prestige pics, Netflix garnered 24 nominations in their first major run at Oscar, beating all other studios (Sony came in with 20, and Disney rounded out the top three with 17). And from what I’m guessing, the Academy is going to show Netflix some big love tonight.

But enough with the numbers. Below are my picks for who will and should win at this year’s Academy Awards, as well as a few of my own awards just for the fun of it.

My Picks

1917, Academy Awards, Al Pacino, Brian Banks, Christian Bale, Entertainment, Film, Ford v Ferrari, Honeyboy, Joaquin Phoenix, Joker, Kathy BAtes, Knives Out, Laura Dern, Marriage Story, Martin Scorsese, Matt Damon, Midsommar, Missing Link, Movies, Oscar, Oscars, Ready Or Not, Reviews, Sam Mendes, Scarlett Johansson, Shazam!, Shia Labeouf, The Irishman, The Peanut Butter Falcon, Toy Story 4, Zachery Levi
