Critics Choice Awards: Sandra Bullock and Bradley Cooper Go Fuck Wild
If the Critics Choice Awards are accurate predictions for the Oscars, it looks like it will continue to be a great year for 12 Years a Slave, American Hustle, and Gravity. On late Thursday afternoon, the Broadcast Film Critics Association presented the prestigious awards to predictable winners in an airplane hangar in Santa Monica; adding to the glamour was the fact that the event was sponsored by Pinkberry. If there's anything sadder than staying at home to watch an awards show on the CW, it's watching an awards show that stars Tom Hanks eating froyo.
Like most awards shows, these were incredibly boring. The highlight of the evening was both Sandra Bullock and Bradley Cooper saying "fuck" on the air. When Bullock began her acceptance speech for Best Actress in an Action Movie, a recording for the category began playing and cut her off. "What the fuck? I'm an action star," she responded. Bradley Cooper, when accepting the award for American Hustle as Best Comedy, referred to his colleagues as "fucking actors." Yes, the best part of the show was seeing two people get bleeped saying a word that makes up 25% of my vocabulary. Basically, these awards predict the Oscars will be boring as fuck.
If anyone cares, the complete list of winners is below.
