    djesus-uncrossedChristoph Waltz hosted NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” last night and participated in a spoof of his Oscar-nominated film, Django Unchained.  While there are many that may be offended by the act, as a catholic, I couldn’t help but laugh until I cried.  It was absolutely hilarious.  Check it out!

    "I'm the motherf**er who should win the Oscar...but won't."

    “I’m the motherf**er who should win the Oscar…but won’t.”

    (The annual “Will Win/Should Win” of the Awards Circuit has been our most popular yet most challenging series where each writer let’s their final thoughts be known on the Oscar categories.  Each writer will reveal their choices everyday leading up to the Oscar ceremony.  Think you can do better?  Let your final thoughts be known in the comment section or by joining our Oscar Pool. -CD)

    As a filmgoer, it’s often difficult to swallow the pill of truth when it comes to the Academy Awards. You’re favorite film will likely lose more than win, or worse yet finish the night empty-handed. As an Oscar pundit, however, I’ve learned — more so this year than any other — that you absolutely must separate your own personal feelings from the duty of prognostication. Solid predictions come from tracing patterns, taking note of momentum, and using precursor stats to help make the most accurate projections possible. You are forced to become objective when it comes to the subjective. In other words, the Academy Awards are nothing more than a pageant where the most popular film, in essence the prom king or queen, is deemed the “best” of the year. Take the word “best” with a grain of salt, and I promise you won’t be hung-up by any results that come your way on Oscar night. However, this annual series that The Awards Circuit prides itself on is a way for us to finally let our irritations come to the surface, but with the full knowledge that our wishes won’t match reality. All of our passion will be on display, as will our final predictions. With that said, I give to you my own “will win/should win” selections… Read more on Oscar 2013 Will Win/Should Win Selections (Braverman)…
