FILM: FLOBY Noms Are In

*Posted February 15, 2009*

Well, it's that glorious time of year again. If you're sick and tired of the same movies sweeping through award season (like Stinkdog Millionaire), then you must agree it is refreshing to see an award show that just doesn't care about what all the critics are talking about. This is our third year running the FLOBY awards (FLOrentin Bests of the Year), and this year we are feeling particularly ambitious. I'm going to list the nominees for you (Of the predictions I made last week and on the FLOBY site, I went 12/20), and then show 2 of the compilations that will air during our ceremony this coming Sunday. You better watch them both because I put a lot of time and effort into them. The nominees are...

WORST ACTRESS - Jessica Alba (Love Guru), Maggie Gyllenhaal (Dark Knight), Queen Latifah (Mad Money), Meryl Streep (Mamma Mia), Renee Zellweger (Appaloosa)

WORST ACTOR - Mike Myers (Love Guru), Shia Labeouf (Indy 4), Seth Rogen!!! (Pineapple Express), Keanu Reeves (The Day the Earth Stood Still), Ashton Kutcher (What Happens In Vegas...)
