Head Over Heels – Full Short
by Felipe Rosa
Head Over Heels: the fifth nominee for Best Animated Short is a bit rough-looking, but very inventive nevertheless, both visually and (what matters most) story-wise. Enjoy! (Sadly, the video is no longer available.)

Adam and Dog: yet another of the 5 nominees for Best Animated Short. Nice, simple story with good-looking stylized visuals. Enjoy! (Sadly, the viceo is no longer available.)

The Simpsons: The Longest Daycare – Full Short
by Felipe Rosa
The Longest Daycare: While I’m not generally a big fan of The Simpsons, this short, also nominated for the Best Animated Short, is clever and funny. Follow this link and enjoy The Simpsons: The Longest Daycare! (This link becomes unavailable every once in a while, so if you have a hard time getting to this short, post a comment and let me know.)

Fresh Guacamole – Full Short
by Felipe Rosa
Fresh Guacamole: This inventive short has a nomination for Best Animated Short. While it’s not as touching as the other one I shared recently, still deserves to be seen. Enjoy!

Casting a ballot – WGA Awards 2012
by Felipe Rosa
Next stop in the 2012 awards tour is the WGA. It should be noted that I have not actually read the nominees, simply watched their rendition on the screen. (Not all of them, sadly. I’ll try to watch the one straggler soon, thought.) It’s a great list, incidentally, particularly for Original Screenplay. (Comparing that list with this one will see a lot of names in common; that is not a coincidence. Good writing is the basis of good filmmaking, and […]

Casting a ballot – DGA Awards 2012
by Felipe Rosa
In the continuing efforts to opine about the awards season, the next stop is the Directors Guild Association. Here is their list of nominees.

With that introduction out of the way, my ballot would be: Best Director – Feature Film: Steven Spielberg for Lincoln I’m also glad […]

Walt Disney’s Paperman – Full short
by Felipe Rosa
Paperman: Among the loveliest moments I spent at the movie theaters last year. Those who read the full list of Oscar nominees or my quick thoughts about them may remember the name. Those who watched Wreck-It Ralph may have seen it. Either way, I encourage you to watch Paperman. (Edited: Sadly, it seems the short was taken off the air.)

Casting a ballot – SAG Awards 2012
by Felipe Rosa
Let me start by saying that I’m not a member of SAG (or any other of the organizations I’ll be casting a ballot over time, for that matter), and if I was, I probably would not make my vote public. Sadly, there were a few performances I didn’t have the opportunity to see yet. Looking at the full list of nominees, there’s only one I think doesn’t belong, so this is a strong group. With that introduction out of the […]
