PGA NOMINATIONS MAKE THINGS WORSE


Was there any need for this? Sure, Deadpool isn't a bad film, and sure, Silence probably never stood a chance given Paramount's release and campaign strategies. But rly, PGA? Always doing the most to do the worst. We also now have the official credits for the documentary nominations, which were announced in November, and five animated nominees additionally. The 28th of January is the date for this year's PGA awards. Couldn't give the tiniest fuck rn.

TEASER TRAILER FOR FENCES: VIOLA DAVIS / DENZEL WASHINGTON DRAMA


Paramount hopes to hit hard this awards season with Fences, August Wilson's adaptation of his Pulitzer Prize-winning stage play. It's directed by Denzel Washington and also starring him; alongside the two-time Oscar-winner is two-time nominee Viola Davis, each actor reprising their Tony-winning roles in the hopes of securing Academy Award glory this time around. You get the message: this has awards written all over it, and the above trailer goes a good way toward proving why Paramount must be so confident that Fences will reap what it's attempting to sow. Released in the US on Christmas Day.
