The Young Turk Presents: Another Meaningless Award!

Disclaimer: I have no idea if this is the right place for this, if it isn't pls tell me and i'll move it or something!

Due to popular demand, and some sort of awards show happening recently or something, The Young Turk makes their glorious return to forum writing to present to you... the AMAs (Another Meaningless Awards in case that wasn't clear!) I'm very bad at keeping up with things but i reckon i can manage something annual, i'll post on this thread each year my list of nominees etc., with the winners in bold - fairly simple! Feel free to comment, create controversy, as well as suggesting nominees throughout the year for the next bout of AMAs!

(NOTE: The following nominees are taken from films released in the UK between the 1st of Jan 2019, and the 10th of Feb 2020!)

(EDIT: Next year imma do this earlier and have the nominees as polls, till then you'll have to cope w my self-indulgence i'm afraid)

The following list includes the categories:

(NOTE: There are so many best feature categories because doing one overall and then a foreign language one seems to belittle foreign language, so everything is split up and then there's an overall one)
