Pretty much prepped so we may be starting around 18:30 instead of 19:00! Just need to prep the lead actor/actress and the tie-breaker winners and then all the layout/pics are done!

BIGGEST BOX OFFICE DISASTER








Fantastic Four
Mortdecai
Pan
Steve Jobs
Tomorrowland
We Are Your Friends



Big Box Office bombs here as we lose massive travesty Fantastic Four, Johnny Depp's big money loser Mortdecai, Pan which did a massive $22m in America on an $150M budget, great reviewed but massive flop Steve Jobs, Disney's money loser Tomorrowland and Zac Efron's We Are Your Friends which recorded one of the lowest ever wide opening weekends. (I promise commentaries will get better late, still doing lots of things and rushing right now, from 8 I can hopefully take it at a steady pace!

The next category is Surprise Box Office Hit, predictions? (Will probably be up in 15 minutes as think I need to do something now!)

Pretty deserving nominees, glad We Are You Friends is included especially. But in terms of the UK I thought Pan did a not too shabby job

Yeah Pan actually did fantastic in the UK, I always keep forgetting how well it did ohmy.gif
I really think Terminator was saved in that category by its China gross!

Next award will be up in couple of minutes and can do about half an hour with no breaks now!

BIGGEST BOX OFFICE SURPRISE








Daddy's Home
Hotel Transylvania 2
Jurassic World
Kingsman: The Secret Service
Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Straight Outta Compton


Now onto the other side of the spectrum with films that surprised you by how well they did at the Box Office and the tie-break made no difference here as Daddy's Home/HT2 had the same votes at the end! This category features big surprise hits like Kingsman and Daddy's Home to movies that we all knew would be big but still outperformed our expectations (Jurassic World and Star Wars). The only one I would maybe argue against being here would be Hotel Transylvania 2 as despite being a big hit, it was as big as I was expecting it to be! I think Home would have been a better nomination here as that was expected to completely bomb!

Throughout the evening I will be revealing the 11 Best Picture nominees, so let's start with the first one now which is also the best film of 2015, what could it be? The next category after that is Best Song, predictions?

BEST SONG







Ellie Goulding- Love Me Like You Do (Fifty Shades Of Grey)
Jennifer Lopez- Feel The Light (Home)
Jessie J- Flashlight (Pitch Perfect 2)
Meghan Trainor- Better When I'm Dancing (The Peanuts Movie)
Rihanna- Towards The Sun (Home)


Fantastic selection Buzzjack in one of the best groups of nominations tonight *.* Ellie's chart topping million selling #1 Love Me Like You Do from 50 Shades Of Grey and America's favourite artist Jessie J with her beautiful Flashlight from Pitch Perfect 2 are the only nominees from non animated movies and both are incredible songs. Animated movie Home scores 2 noms here, one for RiRi with Towards The Sun and the other for Jennifer Lopez with Feel The Light, and Meghan Trainor scores her nom with her track from The Peanuts Movie. All 5 songs are 10/10 so great to see them all nominated heart.gif

The next category is Best Hero, predictions?

BEST HERO









Baymax- Big Hero 6
Captain America- Avengers: Age Of Ultron
Eggsy- Kingsman
Furiosa- Mad Max: Fury Road
Katniss- Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2
Owen (Chris Pratt)- Jurassic World
Rey- Star Wars: The Force Awakens


Interesting category as we see some obvious nominations sneak in with some characters I thought would be getting in (Han Solo, Joy in Inside Out etc) missing out! So let's start with the obvious ones: Jennifer Lawrence continued to slay as Katniss, Daisy Ridley was incredible as Rey in the new Star Wars and Furiosa is loved as hell by nearly everyone. Chris Pratt gets in for his lead in Jurassic World and Taron Egerton's Eggsy in Kingsman also isn't too big of a shock considering the fanbase the movie has on Buzzjack! Though I'm surprised that Baymax got in for Big Hero 6 when no characters from the more popular Inside Out missed out! And an even bigger shock is Captain America getting in for Avengers 2 when the likes of Iron Man/Hulk/Black Widow etc got no nominations! Though Chris seems to have a popular fanbase as I can reveal now that Chris Evans only just missed out on a best actor nomination for Avengers 2!

Next up will be the 2nd Best Picture nominee and the Best Script category and then we will take a break till 8pm when hopefully more people will have turned up by then and commented and joined in heart.gif , predictions?

I'm going to break now as no-one seems to be around! Hopefully more people are here at 8 so this can be more how I imagined it with quite a lot of comments and predictions and communication with each other to make it more fun than just me listing every category basically to myself kink.gif

See you at 8 and hopefully more of you are here then heart.gif
