Too bad there is no Sunday night football anymore. Back to garbage awards shows.

 

Too bad there's no superior 'Waiting All Day For Sunday Night' by Faith Hill either :sadben:

Wait, how did Aaron Taylor-Johnson win? Wtf???

Its studio gave gifts to the HPFA votes, it was a minor scandal last month:

Other groups are more lenient, but Focus Features, which is distributing Nocturnal Animals, may have crossed the line by sending each HFPA member two bottles of one of Ford’s signature colognes (one for men, one for women), which can retail for hundreds of dollars at high-end stores like Neiman Marcus.

 

The HFPA, which has about 90 members, has had a checkered history when it comes to accepting gifts. In one of the most notorious examples, the group nominated Sharon Stone for 1999’s The Muse after USA Films sent each member a Coach watch worth about $400, which Stone herself reportedly paid for. After the press caught wind of the largesse, the HFPA’s leadership ordered members to return the gift — and Stone may have paid a price, since she didn’t go on to win the best comedy actress trophy.

 

But the HFPA now has a rule in place that forbids its members from accepting gifts with a market value of more than $95. So after the cologne arrived, HFPA president Lorenzo Soria emailed members, telling them that they may keep one bottle but must return the second one to the HFPA, which will then return it to Focus. The organization decided on the keep one/return one policy when it found that the price for which the colognes were being sold on Amazon.com was about $90 per bottle. 

 

 

No surprise Nocturnal Animals overperformed with the GG nominations!

Why?

 

It's not like I had a vested interest in the other songs nominated. Plus the song aspect of La La Land was solid. They just awarded the wrong one.

 

So yeah, stop trying so hard.
