Here you go Hollywood — when the awards are handed out, you will be making your acceptance speeches on the sidewalk.

For a moment there, you may have thought that you had seen the last of “The Oscar Beat”, our now annual feature that brings you the best (and worst) of Awards season.

2007 has been filled with movies that the studios whore out to critics in order to get awards. The worst ones are the films that take themselves too seriously or cover the “meaningful” issues. Occasionally, these films actually win awards, so each year we are guaranteed a steady stream of this crap in the late-fall and winter.
