2023 Just Another Film Blog Awards

It’s once again time for the Oscars. In 2019 I decided to start my own film awards the JAFB Awards and I received an overwhelming response! So, I am very happy to share with you the winners of The JABF Awards 2023. You should probably know that I my issue with the Oscars is their lack of diversity not just in gender, race and background but in genre - I give awards to the films I enjoyed over the past year, most of which are popular movies.  2023 was a huge year for film, the first year post covid where all films scheduled to release at the cinema did so.

Movie Release Updates

We are currently faced with a global pandemic which is having huge impacts on the film industry. With filming being suspended and movies being pushed back I thought I would create an updated movie release calendar for you all. In this post I will list the films that have been pushed and order them by their new release date as they come. Whether Hollywood is cancelling movies because of profit margins or because of health concerns - it is a necessary move, but it will result in a few dry months. Which could sadly lead to cinema closures (especially small cinemas) but it also means for us mega movies fans a few dull months and there is also a possibility of an oversaturated Autumn/Winter market. This post will give you all the release information you need and over the next month or so I will try my best to post (I have lots of ideas but sadly there might not be any film reviews for a while). So, what movies have been pushed back by the Coronavirus and when will they be released? read on to find out.
