Oscar Prognostication 2026
DONOVAN’S OSCAR PROGNOSTICATION 2026 Oooo, a fun new theme for the Oscar films this year: generational trauma. A lot of dads (and some moms) making movies in 2025, doing therapy on film and trying to work through their fears as a parent (and hoping their kids don’t end up hating them and writing a book about them). As usual, it makes for such a fun crop of movies. So get comfortable for our session, while I lay on a couch and rant about my 27th annual Academy Award predictions. (We'll both probably need therapy by the time this is over.)

My Top 10 Favorite Movie Dragons
#1 - Smaug (from The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug) He is fire. He is death. While I am not a huge fan of The Hobbit movie series (I think the movies are extremely slow-paced), I was in awe when I first saw Smaug on-screen. Benedict Cumberbatch did an exceptional job with the motion capture facial expressions and movements, and his voice acting for the wicked wyvern is chilling. Smaug is brought to life in a terrifying way that leaves a lasting impression.

Book Review: "The Palace"by Gareth Russell (Pt. 2)
This review covers chapter 4 through to the end of chapter 6 *** We've covered people such as Elizabeth of York, Thomas Woolsley, Martin Luther and even Anne Boleyn but now it is time to move on from these figures. It is proven that Gareth Russell has done such an incredible amount of research here and the book itself is a fantastic achievement of nonfiction literature regardless of your personal feelings towards the royal family. Gareth Russell's writing and insight makes the book even more intriguing to read as he offers us arguments to consider, thoughts to ponder on and stories of whispering gossip that lurk inside the walls of this great palace.
