Full disclosure: We’re among the judges for the GayVN Awards this year, so we probably shouldn’t say anything more about the films that have been nominated and which we’ve posted about before—like “BuckleRoos” or “Lost” or “Perfect Fit” or the 11-time nominated “Wet Palms” (pictured). And we’ll try to ignore the embarassment of having said that Owen Hawk was a shoo-in for a Best Newcomer nod, when what we really meant was that he should be up for Best Performer (which he is). In the meantime, excuse us while we start plowing through this approximately 1,642 nominated titles we didn’t get a chance to inspect the box covers of fast forward through watch in depth before the awards on March 10. This may take a while.
See our much-abridged category listing and handy post directory (yes, we’re working on getting our search feature up and running again soon) after the jump.
