dga-2019-nominations-a-star-is-born-blackkklansman

The nominations for the 2019 Directors Guild awards have been announced. "A Star is Born" and "BlacKkKlansman" have strengthened their positions in the Oscar race with top nods from all guilds: DGA, WGA, PGA and SAG. The former scored two DGA nominations for Bradley Cooper, who also received a first-time director nod, while the latter scored filmmaker Spike Lee his first-ever DGA nomination.

"Bohemian Rhapsody" was left out, most likely due to the behind-the-scenes troubles that led to Bryan Singer being replaced by Dexter Fletcher before production wrapped. Other nominees include "Roma", "Green Book" and "Vice".

The small-screen nominees include "The Americans", "Atlanta", "Ozark", "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel", "Barry", "Who is America?", "Escape at Dannemora" and "The Handmaid's Tale".

in-theaters-the-meg-slender-man-blackkklansman-dog-days

Shark enthusiasts are getting the royal treatment this week as "The Meg" chomps its way into theaters. The Jason Statham starrer received mixed reviews from critics but a decent audience reception, and has already grossed $4 million from Thursday night previews, outperforming films like "47 Meters Down" and "The Shallows".

If sharks aren't your thing, but do enjoy a scary movie, "Slender Man" might be right up your alley. Beware, though, as the film has been receiving a harsh reception from both critics and moviegoers.

A worthwhile new release is Spike Lee' racially charged fact-based dramedy "BlacKkKlansman" which has been receiving stellar reviews. Another film worth checking out is the ensemble romantic comedy "Dog Days", which stars Nina Dobrev, Vanessa Hudgens, Finn Wolfhard and Eva Longoria, among others.
