The BAFTA nominations in pictures

Well, picture.

Full nominations, including the conspicuous absence of 2013's actual best British film, here.

The BAFTAs 2010

It may have passed you by like a monotonous, snoozed-up dullfest of tedium, but the BAFTAs happened the other day. Here's The Incredible Suit's typically punctual trademark enthusiastic response.

Reasons Why The Incredible Suit Hates Movie Awards Ceremonies #4:

If I had spent my life and career training and working my way up the ladder to become a world-class leading figure in a field such as cinematography, music composition or editing, I certainly wouldn't want to have more than a few seconds devoted to my moment of glory. Not when there could be another shot of James Cameron wondering why he bothered to turn up.

Still, none of that was surprising. What was surprising was the future King of England thinking he was about to be orally serviced by a pensioner, on stage, in front of a live audience and a nation of TV viewers finally getting some entertainment after two hours of cabbage.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have an appointment with a large axe at the Tower Of London.

Hairy, Barking Beast

Well viewers, the results of The Incredible Suit’s inaugural poll are in! Try to contain yourselves, because this is, for some, more important than the Oscars, the BAFTAs and Crufts all rolled into one hideously gushing, terribly modest, hairy, barking beast.

Yes, following this post, which literally millions* of people read, I asked you to pick your favourite musical from the only five musicals that matter, i.e. my favourite musicals. It’s my blog, remember? Good.

And so I can announce that, in a staggering refusal to agree with me, you, the voting public, have chosen Singin’ In The Rain as The Greatest Musical, Like, Ever!

Upon receipt of the award, Singin’ In The Rain thanked all four of you who made up the record-breaking 57% winning vote, then it gave us a spectacular 20-minute dance routine that had nothing whatsoever to do with the rest of its speech.**

Come back soon for the results of The Incredible Suit’s poll to find The Greatest Film From The 1920s. So far The General is, quite rightly, in the lead, but literally anything* could happen between now and when the polls close. So get voting!

*not literally
**this sentence is approximately 86% more relevant to those familiar with the film. Everyone else should go and watch it now to get full value from this blog. Off you pop!
