The 2006 FUBAR Awards
After a 4 years absence,
the Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition Awards return. The number of awards was
limited down the 8 major categories this year, but that doesn't make them any
less important!
Distorted lead the way,
with wins in Best Film, Best Actor, and Best Villain. Breaking Point was close
behind with Best Director and Best Supporting Actor. My Friend Frankie and Three
Brothers and a Mother each came away with an award as well.
We'll be putting winners
acceptance speeches on the site as soon as we get them.
Here's the run down of the
nominees, with the winners name in bold:
 |
Best Film
Breaking Point
Distorted
Summersdale Vice
LightbulbProducer Marc
Burrage: "Wow, this was a tough category this year. I'm really pleased with
how everything worked out despite some last minute setbacks. I'd like to
thank Jimmy and Brad for their hardwork in getting it all done so quickly.
You're both beautiful people, but I don't sexually love you. I'd make a
sequel but only Jimmy survived!" |

Best Director
Bradley Barlow - Breaking Point
Marc Burrage - Distorted
Paul Newton - Three Brothers and a Mother
Matt Bauer - Rumbo 2: Son of Rumbo
"Woohoo!! I'm as giddy as an old lady - such a prestigious award for my
debut feature! I'm immensely proud of this film and what we all achieved
with no budget and a cast that was only two-thirds talented. I have every
intention to get back behind the camera this year - a couple of projects are
slowly gearing up and I reckon they're both gonna be pretty spectacular!
Watch this space and thanks again!" |

Best Actor in a Comedy Role
Marc Burrage - Summersdale Vice
Paul Newton - Bad Cops 2
Michael Bailey - My Friend Frankie
Nick Poffley - Earth Dark Vengeance
"What a
prestigious honour.
I would like to quote a famous proverb if I may, “It must be that the
airplane's propeller serves only to cool the pilot off... Because if you
make it stop, he sure starts to sweat. “.
I’m not entirely
sure how that relates to this award, but I feel I’ve made my point. Now,
onto the thank you’s… Thanks to Marc for being a tolerant co-star, Bradley
for directing this, err, film, Emirates Airways for flying me halfway around
the world to shoot this, err, film, and of course everyone on the planet for
voting for me. YOU GUYS ROCK!" |

Michael Bailey - Rumbo 2: Son of Rumbo

"Just a few words to thank you for your kind award, it means a lot to me and
my family. I would like to thank the FUBAR people for making this all
happen. Of course id like to thank my family for supporting me throughout
and to friends for their constant motivation. Without which I wouldn’t be
where I am today. Finally I have to thank Mr Burrage of course for his
tireless devotion to the art of celluloid and his endeavours to get the
things on screen that we all want to see, and lets hope he gets the Oscar
that he richly deserves. I thank you from the bottom of my heart." |

Best Villain
James Titcumb - Earth Dark Vengeance
Marc Burrage - Distorted
Michael Bailey - Lesser of Two Evils
Bradley Barlow - And Then There Were Two
"I never ever get to play bad people,
so I had a lot of anger behind this one just bursting to get out! It's
amazing how easy it was to be mean when you get to shoot Bradley Barlow. I
wanted to shoot him in the face but I guess you don't always get what you
want. I'd name all the people who inspired me to be so evil but we'd be here
a while." |

Best Bad Acting
Matt House - Earth Dark Vengeance
Kiri Anderson - Breaking Point
Bradley Barlow - Earth Dark Vengeance
Antony Plain - Delusions
"And so, as one dream is fulfilled with the award of Best Director, another
is shattered like a kid being told that the tooth fairy has been tragically
killed in a three-car crash on the M25. I have always been proud of my
acting ability (note my nominations for Best Actor in a Dramatic Role, Best
Supporting Actor in a Comedy Role and Best Villain - all for different
films!). However, the panel have decided to piss on my parade and award me
an award for Best Bad Acting for a film I didn't even want to be in...
However, like Halle Berry, I shall accept my award with dignity - although
I'm sure that in FOUR FRIGGIN' YEARS there were worse attempts at acting
than mine. Cheers, or, whatever..."
He goes on... "it's frickin unbelievable that in FOUR YEARS of films they
chose me in a bad wig who was blatantly spoofing the scifi genre as the
worst fuckin actor!!!"
And on... "i've got a fucking degree in
performance and out of FOUR YEARS of films it's ME who is the worst actor
above those clowns and schmucks?!?" |
