Risks may have been taken, but the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards tonight played it very safe - for the most part picking familiar winners from previous years in many categories rather than rewarding some of the more critically acclaimed fare out there.

The final season of "Breaking Bad" dominated the drama category, nabbing almost all the awards in it including Best Drama series, three acting nods, and best writing. In fact the only major awards for drama it missed out on were best actress which went to Juliana Marguiles in "The Good Wife" and best directing which went to "True Detective".

Speaking of "True Detective," HBO took a gamble by opting to play it as a nominee for drama series rather than a mini-series where it would've dominated. It lost that gamble, but its loss proved to be a win for the BBC's "Sherlock" which took three of the awards...

Taking to the stage yet again for more movie honors, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill attended the 18th Annual Art Directors Guild Awards in Beverly Hills.

Glammed up for the affair, "The Wolf of Wall Street" stars sported night black tuxedos as they took the stage on Saturday (February 8).

Films "Her," "Gravity" and "The Great Gatsby" took the biggest awards from the event, and Martin Scorsese put in a few words after receiving of the Cinematic Imagery Award award for "The Wolf of Wall Street," saying, "How does one even separate cinema from Pd? You can’t. We have images in our mind, pictures in our head, but yours are the ones I look to to get those images on the screen. You’ve never let me down. This [award] is for you."

And the winners are:

Contemporary Film

K.K. Barrett, "Her"

Woot woot! My pick to win Best Director at the Oscars took home the Feature Film trophy at the recently concluded Directors Guild of America awards. And it's truly deserving! Cuaron defied gravity, yes pun intended, to create "Gravity," a movie grounded in sci-fi realism that many directors before him (including James Cameron) were saying that it would be hard to do. But Cuaron did it, and did it extremely well! So hats off to "Gravity" and Cuaron's direction!

Here's the complete list of winners of the DGA awards and right after the jump, check out my interview with Cuaron for "Gravity" that we conducted back in October. Oh, and take a look at my interview with the lovely Sandra Bullock as well.

Feature Film:

Winner: Alfonso Cuaron ("Gravity")

Paul Greengrass ("Captain Phillips")

Steve McQueen ("12 Years a Slave")

David O. Russell ("American Hustle")

Honoring the behind-the-scenes folks that shape our viewing experience, the 66th Annual Directors Guild of America Awards were held on Saturday night (January 25).

The big winner this year was Alfonso Cuarón, whose film "Gravity" won the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Feature Film prize.

After accepting the honor from presenter Ben Affleck, he spoke about the movie, saying, "We saw all these photographs of earth from space, and it’s absolutely beautiful; hues of greens and blues. Everything seems so organic. Those silly lines and boundaries we put on political maps, you can’t see that from space. It’s a bizarre experiment of nature, that is the human experience. And it’s what we as directors try to sort out as filmmakers."

Notable winners include Vince Gilligan for "Breaking Bad," Beth McCarthy-Miller for "30 Rock," and Steven Soderbergh for "Behind the Candelabra," who also nabbed the Robert B. Aldrich Service Award.

The 2014 Directors Guild Awards were handed out earlier this evening, and Alfonso Cuaron took the top prize for Gravity, launching him (and the film) into frontrunner status heading into the Oscars. The DGA winner is a very solid predictor of the eventual Oscar winner for the Best Director category, as the two have only failed to match up seven times in the past 65 years. Moreover, the DGA winner’s film has won the Best Picture Oscar on all but 13 occasions. We’ve known it’s going to be a very tight race since the PGA split its top award between Gravity and 12 Years a Slave, but this DGA win for Gravity puts it ever so slightly ahead. Elsewhere at the DGA Awards, Steven Soderbergh took home the Miniseries/TV Movie prize for Behind the Candelabra and Vince Gilligan won TV Drama for the series finale of Breaking Bad, beating out...

Tonight, the Directors Guild of America unveiled their choices for outstanding directorial achievement in 2013, and as expected, Alfonso Cuarón took home their top prize for his brilliant work on Gravity, making him the most likely winner of the Best Director Oscar at this year’s Academy Awards.

The question now becomes: Will this be enough to tip Best Picture in Gravity‘s favor? After all, how could you give a film so many Oscars (including Best Director and Best Film Editing) and Not give it Best Picture? Granted, it’s happened before, but rarely to a film receiving this many awards. If the Academy should pass the film over for the top honor, it would become the most honored film not to win the big prize since Cabaret (1972), which won eight Oscars (including Best Director and Best Film Editing) before losing Best Picture to The Godfather.

Updated: Gravity does not seem to be falling on the awards circuit. Alfonso Cuarón walked away with the top honor at the Directors Guild of America Awards Saturday night in Los Angeles, beating out Martin Scorsese, David O. Russell, Paul Greengrass, and Steve McQueen.

“This is truly an honor and I am humbled by it,” Cuarón said to the audience of his peers after last year’s winner Ben Affleck presented him with the award. But Gravity was not the work of just one mind, and no one knows that more keenly than Cuarón. “Directing is about the work of your collaborators,...

The Art Directors Guild and the Costume Designers Guild have become the latest groups to announce their nominees for 2013. They may not be considered as big or as important as the Producers Guild, the Directors Guild, or the Writers Guild, but they are still a pretty good prognosticator for who will eventually take home the Oscar in their respective categories.

The Art Directors split their categories up into Period, Fantasy, and Contemporary Films (along with various TV categories), but the main one of importance here is the Period, where we find the more fanciful, eye-catching designs. Here, we find what was mostly expected: American Hustle, The Great Gatsby, Inside Llewyn Davis, Saving Mr. Banks, and 12 Years a Slave. If I had to venture a guess, I’d say that The Great Gatsby has this one in the bag. There were those who didn’t enjoy the film (I actually found...

Three of the four top acting awards went to African-Americans during "The 67th Annual Tony Awards" Sunday night.

Cicely Tyson took home her first Tony Award for "The Trip to Bountiful" and Patina Miller won for her amazing turn as ringmaster in the revival of "Pippin."

Billy Porter won the Tony for best man in a musical for his sassy, outrageous Lola in "Kinky Boots" wearing hip-high boots and an attitude only found in drag queens.

"When I think of the moment when I stand before you, this moment I cannot help but remember all of the thumbprints that has touched this being during the course of her career," Tyson said.

"I didn't want to be greedy," Tyson said. "I just wanted one more."

"Please wrap it up it says," Tyson said, reading from the teleprompter toward the end of her allotted time. "And that's exactly what it did for...

The 67th Annual Tony Awards dazzled and delighted from beginning to end in New York's City Radio City Music Hall on Sunday.

The show, broadcast on CBS, commenced with an extravagant opening number from fourth-time host Neil Patrick Harris, which rendered an extensive standing ovation from the audience.

During the number, Harris guaranteed a "truly legendary show," was joined by one-man-show Mike Tyson, and sarcastically thanked Shia Labeouf for allowing him to host.

After uniting with him on stage, How I Met Your Mother actor poked fun at the former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion frequently throughout the show, joking that he was giving the cast of Matilda The Musical face tattoos backstage amongst other quips.

Although Harris was on-point the entire show, from French kissing a dog to his closing-number rap, the show was ultimately about the awards—and moreover, the musical performances.
