Shocker: “The Brutalist,” Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman Among Snubs as SAG Nominations Narrow Oscar Choices

The Screen Actors Guild announced its nominees by press release this morning, skipping their live presentation because of the Los Angeles fires.

SAG, as usual, narrows the Oscar field. Their nominations, more than anything else, are a good predictor of Oscar nominations.

SNUBBED: “The Brutalist,” Brady Corbet’s three and a half hour epic was denied Best Ensemble. Stunning. A24 must be in tears. Only Adrien Brody was nominated for Best Actor. Even Guy Pearce’s supporting actor work was overlooked.

So SAG snubbed big name actresses Nicole Kidman and Angelina Jolie in favor of indie names and less starry entries Mikey Madison, Pamela Anderson, Cynthia Erivo, Karla Sofia Gascon, and Demi Moore.

Their top 5 movies — based on ensemble work– are A Complete Unknown, Anora, Wicked, Conclave, and Emilia Perez.

(The Directors Guild nominations were mostly the same, exchanging Wicked’s Jon M. Chu for Corbet.)

The actor noms are exactly what’s been happening in every awards situation. Daniel Craig, Adrien Brody, Ralph Fiennes, Timothee Chalamet, and Colman Domingo.

Surprises in the supporting category: Jonathan Bailey from “Wicked” is very odd. Danielle Deadwyler from “The Piano Lesson” finally got some love. So did Jamie Lee Curtis from “The Last Showgirl” — which I predicted in September — and Monica Barbaro from “A Complete Unknown.” Sadly cut out is Isabella Rossellini from “Conclave.”

Hollywood on Fire: Everything Canceled: AFI Luncheon, BAFTA Tea, Critics Choice, All Weekend Premieres, TV on Hiatus

Hollywood is on fire.

I’m hearing that the Critics Choice Awards, set for Sunday, will not take place.

Ditto the annual AFI luncheon for Friday and BAFTA Tea for Saturday.

Many TV series have suspended filming. Jimmy Kimmel is on hiatus because of the fires.

As more than 30,000 people have been evacuated from their homes, Pacific Palisades, parts of Santa Monica and close areas are all on fire. Hundreds of homes, schools, and institutions have been lost.

Because of this, the Screen Actors Guild has announced their nominations announcement this morning via press release. All movie premieres last night and tonight have been cancelled.

The fire is so vast that it’s laying claim to homes owned by a big part of the Hollywood community, all of whom would be involved in this weekend’s proceedings.

Armie Hammer Post-Cannibal Books Movie with Uwe Boll, Worst Film Director, Called “The Dark Knight”

Armie Hammer Post-Cannibal Books Movie with Uwe Boll, Worst Film Director, Called “The Dark Knight”

Armie Hammer has booked a movie post-cannibal scandal.

The project is called — believe it or not — “The Dark Knight.” It’s not about Batman, according to Variety.

Hammer has been insisting that he’s getting a lot of work for the first time in four years. He was knee deep in being accused of sexual misconduct and cannibalism in 2020. His career fell apart, and he lost jobs.

Until recently, Hammer was considered not hire-able, similar to Kevin Spacey. But there’s always someone out there who’s willing to roll the dice on a pariah.

In “The Dark Knight,” Hammer will play the crime-fighting titular character in what’s described as a vigilante thriller — sort of like Batman gone awry. (Will Warner Bros. let him keep that title?)

Alas, Uwe Boll is probably the worst director in the business. His movies have Rotten Tomatoes ratings like 4% or 3%. Many of the films have never been reviewed at all, but their audience scores are also around 4%. This a far cry from Hammer’s big run in films like “The Social Network” and “The Man from UNCLE.”

Golden Globes Ratings Lower Than Initially Reported, Down 2% from Last Year, Not Up 7%

Golden Globes Ratings Lower Than Initially Reported, Down 2% from Last Year, Not Up 7%

The Golden Globes show did a little worse in the ratings than what was reported.

Initial reports from Paramount CBS claimed a 7% increase from last year. In reality, it was down 2% from last year.

First reports claimed 10.1 million viewers. But it was really 9.3 million according to Nielsen. Actual linear viewing on CBS was just 7.8 million.

CBS Paramount has been in a dispute with Nielsen and using a company that obviously gets the numbers wrong. Now Nielsen has weighed in with the lower numbers.

That doesn’t mitigate that the show received very good reviews. Nikki Glaser was a terrific host.

But the movies this year don’t have huge audiences, which is going to lead to lower numbers for the awards shows. The Globes, unlike the Oscars, have no added value entertainment — no musical performances, for example.

Still, down 2% — it could be worse!

Facebook Goes Total MAGA, Zuckerberg Ends Facebook Fact Checking for Musk Plan of Community Notes (Video)

We are now going in full MAGA mode.

Mark Zuckerberg has acquiesced to Trump and is ending fact checking at Facebook. He will replace it with community notes. He says he’s following the path of Elon Musk on X.

Trump has managed to corral the world’s richest man in his scheme. This isn’t a doomsday movie. It’s real. Jeff Bezos is making a Melania Trump infomercial for Amazon Studios.

Is the sky falling? AI is swamping Google and the rest of the internet. It’s only a matter of time before the Google anti-trust case is thrown out, Trump absolves all his allies of their crimes. We are entering a frightening time because now the current generation of 25 year olds only know this way of living. The attack on mainstream media is plowing ahead.

“Saturday Night Live” Wants 7 Hours of Our Time on February 16th for “SNL 50” on NBC, Peacock

Circle Sunday, February 16th if you’re a fan of “Saturday Night Live.”

NBC and Peacock want 7 hours of our time that day to celebrate “SNL 50,” the 50th anniversary of the legendary, unprecedented run of the sketch comedy show.

During the day, Peacock will drop a four part documentary called “Beyond SNL.” The trailer is below. You could start watching it around 2 or 3 pm and finish by 7, with bathroom breaks.

Then at 8pm, a live three hour special version of “SNL” will air on NBC. Lorne Michaels told me everyone who ever performed on the show, more or less, is invited back. I’m sure some will wave from the audience while the superstars are on stage. But three hours– imagine the musical acts they’ve booked!

“SNL” is indeed a TV phenom, the longest running show of any kind except the farm report. The good, the bad, and the ugly will be on display. But not the movie, “Saturday Night.” So far no reports of the Jason Reitman movie streaming anywhere. Too bad.

Coming Soon: Justin Bieber vs. Scooter Braun Develops as Singer Unfollows Ex Manager, Who’s Erased His Social Media

Coming Soon: Justin Bieber vs. Scooter Braun Develops as Singer Unfollows Ex Manager, Who’s Erased His Social Media

Scooter Braun’s Instagram account used to be full of picture of the former music manager. He was always living the high life, jetting around the world to amazing locations, and living it up like Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.

But now the Instagram account is gone. Braun’s Twitter feed has been pared back to 2012. He’s rolled up the red carpet and vanished. There is almost no reference to him on the website for his traveling exhibition about October 7th, called Nova.

Braun became famous for discovering and managing Justin Bieber when he was a child. With Bieber he made millions and started an agency that came to include Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and at different times, Kanye West and Sean Diddy Combs. But it was Bieber who was his bread and butter as the teen singer toured the world and sold zillions of records.

But then it all came to a crashing end. Bieber was no longer the golden goose as the touring was cancelled and stopped. Bieber had mental health issues. He also had a form of Bell’s Palsy. He hasn’t made an album in years. Finally, to raise money, Braun sold Bieber’s catalog for just $200 million at an alarmingly young age.

Last year Braun announced he was getting out of management altogether. He merged his company, Ithaca Holdings, with KPop behemoth Hybe. He took over running Hybe America. All his former clients, like Grande, moved on. But Bieber, still not working, was set adrift.

Over the weekend came reports that Bieber had unfollowed his former mentor on his own Instagram account. Strangely, Bieber is still following Braun’s ex wife. Bieber’s mother is following Braun’s brother, who runs a charity. Then Braun deleted his accounts.

Would anything surprise us next? Bieber’s $200 million catalog sale actually doesn’t amount to much counting fees and taxes. His expenses are huge. Just as Michael Jackson did after “Thriller,” Bieber continues to live like he’s in a money orchard. Not touring has severely limited his revenue. He could have been making millions the last five years from playing arenas. But that doesn’t seem to be in the cards. Is he looking for his money, wondering what’s happened to it after all his work? Likely. Will he find it? Stay tuned.

Will the Oscars Rubber Stamp the Globes? Two Hurdles Next: Critics Choice, SAG Awards

Will the Oscars Rubber Stamp the Globes? Two Hurdles Next: Critics Choice, SAG Awards

The Golden Globes are over.

Next up for awards season: the Critics Choice Awards next Sunday on the E! channel. Then the SAG Awards.

Will the Oscars rubber stamp the Globes winners? No. The Motion Picture Academy is more likely to zig where the Globes have zagged. A lot will happen between now and March 2nd.

Academy voters are more likely to look at next Sunday’s results — actual critics voting for films. Then comes the Screen Actors Guild, which makes up a huge chunk of the Academy. Those two awards will be more predictive.

What is true that winners like Demi Moore and Fernanda Torres, Sebastian Stan and Adrien Brody have pretty much clinched Oscar noms. Brody was already there, but this helps. Will Timothee Chalamet make a comeback? He very well could.

The best actress race is a lot of more funky now. Moore gave a great speech. Her movie, “The Substance,” is not great but she’s been in the game for 45 years and has a lot of good will. She’s been very kind to ailing ex husband, Bruce Willis. That counts for a lot. Torres is still unknown to much of the Academy. Who else could win Best Actress? Nicole Kidman? (I wish.) Angelina Jolie? (Not happening.) Karla Sofia Gascon? (Never say never.)

And then there’s “The Brutalist.” In limited release, this three and a half hour movie has done middling business. It’s extremely flawed and incredibly ambitious. The second part, after the intermission, is unwatchable. But what would be Best Picture for the CCA, SAG, or Oscars? “Conclave” is still a possibility. “Emilia Perez” is a long shot, but you never know.

Meanwhile, whoever gave Jeremy Strong that hat should be fired. And why did a lot of the women have fake “falls”– hair pieces — attached to their heads like they were in “Valley of the Dolls?”

After dozens of years and tries Netflix has finally won a Best Picture. They took home the Golden Globe tonight for Best Musical or Comedy with “Emilia Perez.”

The streaming platform also won a TV award for Best Drama with “Shogun,” which also won Best Actor and Supporting Actor, and Best Actress in a TV drama.

“The Brutalist” won Best Picture, Drama, as well as actor for Adrien Brody and director for Brady Corbet.

Best Actress in Drama was the most pleasant surprise of the night. Fernanda Torres won for “I’m Still Here.” Her mother, Fernanda Montenegro, was nominated 25 years ago for “Central Station.” Both movies were directed by Walter Salles, of Brazil.

As for “Emilia Perez,” it also won the Palme d’Or at Cannes this year. Not bad!

Demi Moore Wins Golden Globe for Best Actress Comedy or Musical: “First time I’ve ever won anything for acting”

Demi Moore Wins Golden Globe for Best Actress Comedy or Musical: “First time I’ve ever won anything for acting”

Demi Moore won a Golden Globe tonight for Best Actress in a musical or comedy.

Her movie, “The Substance,” is neither but who cares? It’s the Golden Globes.

Demi told the audience in accepting the award: “I’ve been doing this for 45 years and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything for acting.”

Moore said she was told she was a “popcorn actress” early in her career, and would never be considered a real actress. This award is a pay off for 30 years in the business. It’s also a reward for being a good sport in her life and her career.

Sebastian Stan won Best Actor in a musical or comedy for “A Different Man,” also not a comedy or a musical. Again, who cares? It’s Chinatown, Jake!

Will either win an Oscar? Unlikely. But it pushes them up on a possible run for a nomination.
