Bryan’s 2012 Awards

This is the final look back at 2012. I’ve already gone over my top ten movies, my top ten trailers, and my top 20 posters. Now I’m handing out my awards and nominations Academy Award style.

2013 Oscar Checklist – The Master List

This madness is almost over (until next year of course). The Oscars are this Sunday and I managed to see every single film nominated. That’s not a humble brag. This whole thing took a lot of time and even more effort. Most importantly, I’m proud to say Shooting the Script has also reviewed all the nominated films…well almost. There are still a few films that slipped by without being reviewed for various reasons. I ran out of time to give them full-length reviews,  so this post will serve two purposes. It will provide links so you can easily find every review of the nominees, and for the few left unchecked, I’ll have a quick capsule review written for them here. Okay, here we go.

Emancipated – “Lincoln” Review

With Lincoln, Daniel Day-Lewis has topped himself again. It seems unfair that he is this good. Day-Lewis encompasses the role of the revered 16th President of the United States in every conceivable way. It is a performance certain to be discussed for a long time. The movie is pretty great too.

2012 Fall Preview: 25 Films I Can’t Wait to See #5-1

This is what I call the super obvious section.

Top 10 Movies We’re Looking Forward to in 2012

Bryan had an idea (read: he stole it from In Contention) for a collective top 10 list of the movies scheduled for release in 2012 that we here at Shooting the Script are most looking forward to seeing. And though Bryan and I don’t always agree–he thinks the LOTR trilogy counts as one timeless classic, whereas I think it’s three boring films that didn’t age well–I was also interested to see what our gang was looking forward to, and figured you might be too.
