It's time to think about (for me anyway) the 2nd Annual Beerbohm Awards, in recognition of movie trailers.
Please note that the Beerbohm is awarded only to movie trailers (that I've seen) and are not an award for the actual movie. The Oscars are for that...
This year I will be adding two new categories:
Best Independent Film Trailer
Best Documentary Trailer.
More details below the impressive hardware...
The other Beerbohm Award categories are:
Best Trailer
Worst Trailer
Best Music or Song in a Trailer
Best One-Liner in a Trailer
Worst Spoiler Trailer
Most Misleading Trailer
Please send in your nominations before January 31, 2013. In February, readers/followers will be given the opportunity to vote. Yes, YOU are the academy, unless the wife overrules.
Either comment on the blog or email your nominations to beerbohmtastic@gmail.com.
Thank you for reading and following and sending stuff and for loving movies (and trailers) as much as I do.
Here are last year's winners: http://beerbohmtastic.blogspot.ca/2012/03/here-are-your-2012-beerbohm-award.html

This blog was inspired by Max Beerbohm (August 24, 1872 – May 20, 1956) an English essayist, parodist, critic and caricaturist. He was once asked how he wrote his book reviews. He answered, "I look at the book, write the review and, if I like the review, I'll read the book." I sort of apply Max's approach to movies. Kind of like judging a book by its cover... only judging a movie by its trailer.
