Yes, I\u2019m late on this tally, but it\u2019s been a busy week. On January 21st, nominees for Britain\u2019s equivalent of the Oscar Awards \u2013 the BAFTAs \u2013 were announced, and as per the custom, I\u2019ve hyperlinked titles I\u2019ve reviewed, as well as those available on DVD or soon to be available on DVD, including those in Region 2 land, where noted.<\/p>\n

Soundtracks have also been linked to that invaluable resource for fans and the curious, Soundtrackcollector.com, as well as Amazon.com when necessary.<\/p>\n

Among the nominated composers is Chaz Jankel, who had a seemingly fleeting career with film with Making Mr. Right<\/strong>, D.O.A.<\/strong> (with its exquisite death lament), and the North American release of K2<\/strong> in 1991. (Hans Zimmer\u2019s original score was retained for the European edit.) K2<\/strong> was Jankel\u2019s last credit, making Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll<\/strong> his first film score in 18 years. Welcome back!<\/p>\n

The full list of nominees is also available at the BAFTA\u2019s website<\/a>, along with other multimedia materials. The awards ceremony at The Royal Opera House will be broadcast by the BBC on Sunday February 21st, 2010.<\/p>\n

In case James Cameron wins an award and starts to blather in Avatarese<\/em>, may I suggest the use of ripe tomatoes. I understand the pinched form of the Costoluto Genovese<\/a> variety ensures both accuracy and a spectacular bounce when the curved edge bumps into a big egotistical head.<\/p>\n
