    About Joey Magidson


    When he’s not obsessing over new Oscar predictions on a weekly basis, Joey is seeing between 200 and 300 movies a year. He views the best in order to properly analyze the awards race/season each year, but he also watches the worst for reasons he mostly sums up as "so you all don't have to". In his spare time, you can usually find him complaining about the Jets or the Mets. Still, he lives and dies by film. Joey's a voting member of the Internet Film Critics Association as well. Today the IFCA, tomorrow the world!

    3. If Dujardin beating Oldman at the BAFTAs doesn’t scream Oscar lock, then nothing will.

    4. Excited at the thought that Dujardin will win. And if Streep can pull it off then good for her. It’s a toss up for me between her and Davis. Either would be a good win at this point.

    8. It was actually a good show this year, it did feel quite rushed compared to the Oscar but it’s on BBC and there’s no advert breaks. Glad to see Stephen Fry back to hosting it, I feel that he gives it a bit more of a charm I didn’t see last year’s show so I’m not sure if he hosted that one. I was happy to see John Hurt pick up an honorary award and also nice for Marty to get the fellowship award and deliver a pretty nice speech. Watching the honorary awards of both the BAFTA and Golden Globes makes me wish that the Oscars brought them back again. I don’t know the reason that they have a separate show for them but considering how long the show drags on for I don’t see why they can’t spare 10 minutes or more presenting an honorary award. I’m not sure Adam Deacon should have won the Rising Star award but it was voting by the public so I can’t really be upset with that but would have liked Tom Hiddleston to win.

      • Jonathan Ross hosted it last year and he was terrible.

    10. I don’t put too much stock into BAFTA, but it certainly did nothing to hurt Dujardin.

    11. Go MERYL!!!!!! It’s a Streep vs. Davis Oscar run.
      If Goldman, in his home turf, lost to Dujardin… Dujardin is walking away with the Oscar.
      Though I think Bejo will not be a winner Oscar night, I’m glad they recognized her in the Best Actress category where she belongs. She is as good as Dujardin.
      Dont’ the BAFTAs have a best song category?????
