Golden Globe Noms 2010

So I definitely have a special interest in this years Golden Globe and another other film award show this year... 2009 has been a good year for the film industry {there's been one good production after another}. Precious: Based on the novel Push is up for 3 nominations: Best Drama, Best Actress in a Drama, and Best Supporting Actress {shout out to Mo'Nique for doing her thing, even though I still haven't seen the movie [shame on me...smh]}. Another interestin film {that I have yet to see} is Clint Eastwood Invictus. Its also running for 3 nominations: Best Actor. Director, and Supporting Actor. I really would love to see Morgan Freeman walk away with a Golden Globe, he played the role of Nelson Mandela for crying out loud! I am sad to see that Twilight saga New Moon wasn't up for any nominates :-[ but anyway on to the next...

I am glad to see that a few of my favorite TV series are up for some nominations... such as Big Love on HBO and House on FOX.

Note: I didn't only look for films and TV shows that hold my interest. I also looked to see what the films and/or TV shows the Golden Globe can put me on to. I've taken a special interest in Kevin Bacons' Taking Chance on HBO {#1 its Kevin Bacon, #2 its HBO [On a good day its hard to pick with one should be #1]}.

DELTA BLUES

George Clooney is the executive producer of TNTs new pilot Delta Blues, a show about an unusual Memphis cop who happens to be an Elvis impersonator and lives at home with his mother. Jason Lee, who had the leading role in 'My Name is Earl' but you probably will know him from 'Alvin and the Chipmunks' better, will be main character Dwight Hendricks. Alfre Woodard was chosen to star on the new show, but I'm unclear on who her character is.

Now, I have some concerns. TNT is well know for producing quality drama television series: Saving Grace, The Closer, & Leverage (just to name a few) but this new show Delta Blues doesn't seem to fit in the 'drama' category. Jason Lee is the leading man for crying out loud, that has comedy written all over it! TNT hasn't let me down yet and hopefully they won't start now!

'OMAN.......O Man'

Debbie Allen, who starred in Fame (both the late 80s and 2009), put together a musical for the Arabesque Festival about Middle East culture through the eye's of two 12 year old boys. Allen's project has caught the eye of several people and couldn't have come at a better time. There is an gala opening tonight of 'OMAN....O Man' at the Kennedy Center. If Allen does decided to tour the U.S., it'll be one musical I'm definitely trying to see. Check out the links from CNN.com

Timothy Olyphant

I was watching Live Free or Die Hard, for the second or third time, and just realized who Timothy Olyphant was! How dumb am I right? I guess...but every movie he plays in he looks different. And I'm pretty good at noticing people, its like my thing, you can say. He's like Johnny Deep without the make up. I feel in love with him in Catch and Release with Jennifer Garner. If you didn't see it, watch it! But anyway, some movies you should have noticed him in: Gone in 60 Seconds, Scream 2, Live Free or Die Hard and The Girl Next Door, just to name a few. But, to get my point across, he's a wonderful actor and should be looking at more nominations that should lead to wins.

Media 3 Films

A lot of people are bashing twitter...but its definitely has its good side with me. I was twitting actor Brian White last night and found out that he has his own production company, along with director & producer Sylvain White and actor & producer Boris Kodjoe. Their production company is based out in California, of course. I love how they incorporated the "hear no, speak no, see no evil" theme into their company.

Bonus: Media 3 Films accepts screenplay of all genres, so don't be a punk, get your stuff out there!
