29th Critics Choice Awards
Neck-and-neck all night, Barbie and Oppenheimer were both potential winners, but with that Best Comedy category, too many voters probably voted Barbie there and if it had not, it might have won. While most of the winners were expected, Emma Stone and Paul Giamatti shook up the narrative and it will be an interesting road

14th Denver Film Critics Nominations & Awards
Denver’s critics are the first to go almost all-in on Barbie. Few other groups are going for something so mainstream, preferring the popular, but traditional Oppenheimer instead. An interesting choice. Awards Tallies (4) Barbie, Oppenheimer (3) Poor Things (2) Godzilla Minus One (1) The Creator, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, The Holdovers, Spider-Man: Across

21st Iowa Critics Awards
I have a few TBDs listed here, but I’m not so sure they will be announced. Two sources confirm the non-TBD selections, so it’s likely they won’t ever be announced. Having said that, The Holdovers clearly had a good run with this tiny group. Award Tallies (4) The Holdovers (2) Oppenheimer (1) Barbie, Killers of

8th Hawaii Critics Awards
The uber-small Hawaii Film Critics Society went with Barbie for their top film of the year, an outside-the-box choice. They also didn’t just toss it one award, giving it one shy of Oppenheimer‘s leading total. Award Tallies (5) Oppenheimer (4) Barbie (3) Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2) Ferrari, Past Lives, Poor Things (1) 80 for

40th Casting Society Nominations
The Casting Society’s nominations are an interesting batch just because it speaks to the power of casts and their casting directors. Casting is a category recognized at BAFTA but not the Oscars, which is surprising. It seems like a natural fit for the Academy. The Nominations Best Feature Big Budget Drama Casting The Color Purple

35th Producers Guild Nominations
These could very well be our Best Picture nominees. They seem to be the most commonly cited, rewarded, and predicted. The Animated Feature category, however, is unlikely to replicate with The Super Mario Bros. Movie the most likely to get left off. This likely means the end of the road for Air, The Color Purple,
