The People’s Choice Awards are, no question, the most reflective awards ceremony of what people actually like. There’s no panel of sneering critics and judges to give some indie film the nod over That Thing Everyone On Earth Watched.
It’s unashamedly populist, which of course, means that it is probably the best of the bunch. Not only that, but the awards are voted for by humans, as opposed to ‘experts’. It’s a lovely and wonderful thing, designed to irritate people like us.
