The Most Offensive Movies Of All Time
MADONNA NOMINATED TWICE YEAHHHH BEST ORIGINAL SONG WITH MASTERPIECE YEAHH QUEEN
MADONNA MADONNA BEST SCORE AND BEST ORIGINAL SONG
It's not about popularity or how high grossing something is. If it was then Avatar would have beaten The Hurt Locker (so glad it didn't!). It's about artistic quality. HP7 does deserve attention in the technical awards such as effects etc, but it wasn't the best film of the year so calm down.
Re: lington –
I don't see Madonna mentioned anywhere.
Where the hell is "The Walking Dead"???? You have got to be kidding me!
Whats with the 'Even Zooey Deschanel'?. Your a shady bitch.
Re: lington –
Ah, I see in another article that she was nominated. Congrats Madonna! I still havent heard the final version of "Masterpiece" yet.
wow i was expecting melissa mcarthy and the owsen sister
Where is Sons of Anarchy?? Glad to see Homeland.
Chris Colfer snubbed. I know people don't care for Glee anymore, but he had a great year last year. Although, it wasn't a funny year for Chris Colfer he acted very well with what the writer's wrote for him.
I really don't understand how they pick these nominations, especially for TV because I don't get most of the stations that these shows are on.
And HP7 was good enough to get at least one nod, but since it didn't I kind of don't care because I literally haven't seen any of the other movies nominated (except Bridesmaids, which better win).
can't believe Dexter was not mentioned!!!
Read the list.
~yawn~
*sigh* Where is Sons of Anarchy ????!?…
No Melissa McCarthy?!?!?!
COMMENTS ON AGAIN"Jimmy Kimmel Gets A Kid To Snitch On His 'Naughty' Friends" another classless non funny "bit" by this ass and another classless reporting of BULLYING by you.
Yeah! Jean Dujardin and Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist!!!!! vive la France!
I wish all tv awards would do what the PCAs have intelligently done and split tv shows into two categories for network tv and cable. The rules are so different that it hardly seems fair to compare the two, especially with dramas. Because as it is year after year, the shows nominated are shows I've never heard of or even seen since I don't get American cable channels in Canada.
oh I'm sorry…I fell asleep halfway through reading the list.
MIDNIGHT IN PARIS IS HANDS DOWN THE WORST MOVIE EVER! HOW COULD IT EVEN BE NOMINATED? WHAT IS HOLLYWOODS OBSESSION AND FASCINATION WITH WOODY ALLEN? he is nothing but a child molester.
I was blinded by the white snow storm! Hummph maybe next yr other races of people in America will get recognized for their art.
Whoa! Wait. I love My Week With Marilyn, I saw it the week it was released in my city, but I wouldn't call it a comedy. There are scenes with Michelle Williams in tears and breaking down. How is that a comedy?
Re: rebeccarose – I dislike most of Allen's films, but I thought Midnight In Paris was quite good.
Also, why does Community not get the love and respect it deserves?
I thought Midnight in Paris was awful! I had trouble staying awake! I really thought Harry Potter should have gotten more nominations, especially for Alan Rickman's performance as Professor Snape. That's too bad…
cars 2 was nominated not winnie the pooh
Jessica Lange is awesome in AHS.
War Horse does not come out until Christmas Day, so unless all these folks got advance DVDs or something, not sure how they could nominate this. I am looking forward to seeing the movie, the trailers look great.
Also looking to see The Descendants and hear it is VERY good and shot on my favorite island, Kauai - with lots of shots on Oahu as well
the winners will be

I am so sick of Alan Rickman getting snubbed for his role as Professor Snape. Especially in the last film, that was quite a performance. Excited to see Rooney Mara in Dragon Tattoo.
Re: Mylittlewitch – Exactly!
Re: perez posse member 777 – Have to say you did a great job on your comment. Trying to beat me at my own game lol. It's almost 100% percent correct.
But, I see PussNBoots as best Animated Film. But great choices!! Well done.
