New Ideas.....
Hello everyone, I have decided that is time for us to take the next step and start thinking about a webpage. I have already made the first steps and I would like to ask your help to build it. I need creative ideas and beneficial suggestions. Please note that the purpose of the webpage is also going to be the nomination of movies and actors for the award.
If you have any good ideas please email me at peoples.award@gmail.com
Thanks in advance!

More about this blog
I was thinking the other day about how so many deserving movies just never make it to the World of Awards, and the ones that do often are boring, unaccessible, and/or uninteresting to common audiences. Not to criticize the Oscars (because I think an Oscar is the highest award an actor or a movie can receive), but it seems that what normal audiences like, value, or enjoy is not even a factor in what makes a movie or an actor the "best." For example, a few months ago I saw Things We Lost in the Fire. It is a remarkably good movie with a superb message, and Benicio Del Toro's acting was fantastic and real. I was hoping he would at least get a nomination for an Oscar this year, but no one ever mentioned him. And even though it was an excellent movie, very few people have even heard of it. So I thought that it was time to create an award that comes from the people and is presented by the people. Maybe I am a little naive, but I believe that anything is possible if we all put our heads together. This award has to come from us to actors and movie-makers as a sign of our acknowledgment of and respect for their work.
PS: Since this idea was born I have learned that there is an award that seems similar to what I would like us to create, but in reality it is not even close. If you want to check it out please do so here: http://www.pcavote.com/pca/

Good movie and excellent acting from Kevin Costner. I have to say there were parts of the movie when I wondered when the story would finally get on with it--I would have liked to see Bud Johnson start figuring things out a lot sooner, not just at the last minute. But in spite of all the negative comments about this movie I think it is very well done, with a good message to all of us.
