The Oscar nominations released their picks for the year's best supporting performances last week. Tell us whether you think they were right by registering your vote in Week 4 of the Movie Without Pity Awards, which leads off with Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. But why stop there? You can also tell us who you though was the year's Worst Supporting Actor and Actress. For example, we would have placed My Week with Marilyn's Kenneth Branagh in the latter category, as opposed to what Academy voters wound up going with.
The Oscar nominations are announced tomorrow, but in the meantime, you can register your own opinion on the best and worst of the past year in film via The Movie Without Pity Awards.
The next crop of MWoP Awards polls have just opened and are awaiting your opinions. Was there a worse comedy this year than Bucky Larson: Born To Be a Star? A better one than Bridesmaids? And what about the year's lamest villain -- had to be that gaseous space cloud floating through Green Lantern, right?
Frustrated that Captain America: The First Avenger isn't a Best Picture contender? Can't understand why everyone raved over Crazy, Stupid, Love.? Make your own voice heard about this year's best and worst movies by voting early and often in the Movie Without Pity Awards.
The big winners at this year's Golden Globes nominations are George Clooney and The Artist, in that order. The big losers? Fans of The Tree of Life.
Television Without Pity is a voting member of the New York Film Critics Online, an organization of New York-based online critics, which convened yesterday to hand out their annual awards honoring the best in film for 2011. The silent-film homage The Artist proved to be the big winner, going home with three awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. (We weren't alone in giving that film top honors -- The Artist has also been named Best Picture by the New York Film Critics Circle, Boston Society of Film Critics and the Washington D.C. Area Film Critics. It's also currently the closest to what resembles a frontrunner for the Best Picture Oscar.) NYFCO departed from the mainstream consensus with two less expected picks -- Michael Shannon was named Best Actor for his searing work in Take Shelter, while Joe Cornish picked up Debut Director honors for his terrific alien invasion movie, Attack the Block.
