BAFTAs
So the BAFTAs have been given and it turns out that film about freakishly tall blue aliens who are not – repeat, not – at all like Native Americans, their princess who is not – repeat, not – at all like Pocahontas and her foreign lover is not – repeat, not – like John Smith got jack all! Well jack all except for Production Design and Special Effects and let’s face it who cares about them?
Instead the big gongs went to the woman who’s the ex-wife of the director of ‘freakishly tall alien film’. How about that for bloody poetic irony? Because it turns out people that give away film awards tend to want something with a plot rather than a lazy rehash of already rehashed and lazy cliches while mirroring the plot of your last film!
