By Matt Neglia As heard last week on The Next Best Picture Podcast, we have decided to unveil our NBP Film Awards weekly, leading up to the Oscars. The first week of awards primarily has to do with both visual and audio elements, so there will be a lot of pictures and links to help you along. Our first awards are “Best Movie Posters,” “Best Movie Trailers,” “Best Original Song,” “Best Original Score” & “Our Most Anticipated Films Of 2017.”
