‘Saturn Awards’ 2019 – The New Look is a Hit!

'Avengers: Endgame' and 'Game of Thrones' big winners

Winners for the 45th annual Saturn Awards, honoring motion picture, television, home entertainment, and live stage productions, were announced Friday, Sept 13th at an exciting ceremony hosted by Aisha Tyler at the historic Avalon Theater in Hollywood. The show which is newly revamped was streamed across 8 online platforms. This is the only awards show that focuses on Sci-fi, Fantasy and Horror. I love that so much!

2019 was a fun, high tech and very different style for the awards show, which has been doing this for 45 years! Aisha Tyler was a great pick for the host.

“Welcome to the Saturn Awards. Tonight, we celebrate everything that used to get us kicked and beaten in school,” she joked to start the show.

It was not a big surprise that Marvel cleaned up, mainly with its 2019 blockbuster Avengers: Endgame, but also getting awards for Avengers: Infinity War, Spider-Man: Far from Home and even one for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. But if that’s not your thing, there were lots of other stars and awards that made the show worth watching.

Additional film acting awards went to Jamie Lee Curtis who won Best Actress for Halloween, Zendaya who took home the award for Best Supporting Actress in Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Josh Brolin who won Best Supporting Actor for Avengers: Infinity War.

HBO’s Game of Thrones won four of the television awards, while AMC’s The Walking Dead won three and Netflix’s Stranger Things won two awards as a streaming series. Supergirl took home the “Best Superhero Television Series” award, while HBO’s Westworld won for “Best Science Fiction Television Series” and Henry Thomas won “Best Actor in a Streaming Presentation” for The Haunting of Hill House.

Three awards that I was excited about were Nicholas Cage’s Mandy winning Best Independent Film release, A Quiet Place winning Best Horror and Bad Times at the El Royale winning Best Thriller!

There are absolutely too many winners to mention so please read the full list of awards at the end!

Here are just a few of the photos I took at the show. Enjoy!!
