“We blew it.” Today, I’m giving out the first ever We Blew It Awards, honoring ten movies that deserved better than they got from audiences, critics, studios — everyone.
Back when I co-hosted the Filmspotting: SVU podcast, we used to do an annual awards episode where we gave out eclectic honors to various movies.
Near the end of Easy Rider, Billy (Dennis Hopper) is giddy at their financial windfall after a successful drug deal, but Fonda’s Wyatt is despondent.
May these ten motion pictures find a better reception on home video and streaming, and may we do better for the excellent films of 2020. If we don’t, the We Blew It Award will return next December.
