Mainly sharing my thoughts on all things cinema and awards season! TV outbursts likely, and a scattering of music and theatre while I’m at it.

It’s time to announce the WINNERS!

Here we goooooooo…

[Alex @AMG_Review]

It’s that time of year where I FINALLY get to announce the nominees for my personal film awards, honouring the best motion pictures of 2025

31 categories to get through! Off we go…

🎥 🏆

I sort of get what they’re saying but the woman has won an Oscar…quite famously a film award

[To Be Loved @god_adele05]

Maggie Gyllenhaal is jury president at the 83rd Venice Film Festival this September.
Fun fact: Tom Ford already won the Grand Jury Prize there for Nocturnal Animals.
If Adele’s film wins anything, it’ll be her first film award.

Something very special is on the way, Besties... 👀🎭

Stay tuned. You won't want to miss this one.

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Emmys ballot is where? 👀

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@michellepryde They’re announcing ‘across the summer’ so I’m thinking one a week for 12 or so weeks?

Clearly changing up everything they can including these announcements

[Alex @AMG_Review]

This is SO early

I love it. Incredible booking. But is the show gonna be on earlier this year?

[BBC Press Office @bbcpress]

🪩 Ready for a FAB-U-LOUS #Strictly summer?

Actress Lacey Turner is the first celebrity contestant confirmed for Strictly Come Dancing 2026

More info ➡️ https://t.co/DkLlo9dgjp

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Lacey Turner has won 8 British Soap Awards, which is more than any other individual ever, as well as 4 NTAs

…but sure just say it’s ‘a BSA and NTA’, BBC News 👀 #Strictly

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Also, stop the count…she’s winning a public vote. Place your bets, she’s won #Strictly

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@ManFredd87 If Peter O’Toole couldn’t get a nomination in Supporting Actor for Ratatouille, it’s never happening

Eddie Murphy’s BAFTA nod for Shrek will just remain one incredible moment in time

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Apple is actually giving us stellar, original shows from incredible creatives with a perspective

HBO is starting to just generate whatever IP is doing well and milking it dry

[DON @iDonf9z]

مسلسلات شبكة HBO و Apple TV آخر السنوات
من أفضل ؟

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Just a few reported ads in the last day or two

What happened? 🤬

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@NicholasMesa7 Would it have killed you to at least mention and rank the 6th and only other actress who has won in that timeframe?

[Alex @AMG_Review]

Yep, he recognises there is transphobia but just puts it in the box of ‘Polish people are transphobes’ by having ALL of Zee’s housemates be Polish men for zero reason

Any other references to transphobia is Leo to Steph but ‘he can’t talk to her about it’ so it’s just left 🤷🏼‍♂️

[India Willoughby @IndiaWilloughby]

My only criticism of #Tiptoe is the elephant in the room. The drama is about the sudden rise in homophobia and transphobia. But the cause is never mentioned - the TransGender Critical movement.

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@LukeCustardtv @dannjohn The final act is so shocking and difficult to watch I think people have almost forgiven the questionable writing, pacing and character choices that came before

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@LukeCustardtv @dannjohn Yeah like I don’t get why we saw Zee’s transphobic housemates and why they all had to be Polish?

And Melba was like other RTD characters who in other shows are the ones that get killed off

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@dannjohn @LukeCustardtv Oh yes forgot about that too. Also there could’ve been online disinformation spread by Clive about Leo and George which could’ve led to something more natural too

[Alex @AMG_Review]

@dannjohn @LukeCustardtv Exactly, or swapped the ‘reveals’ so makeup on George comes first and then there’s a reveal of the messages between him and Leo which makes him FLIP thinking it’s sexual and it being a real catalyst for his violence
