    4th UK Critics Nominations

    Their release window being different than the U.S., that explains the presence of two 2025 films and one that hasn’t been released stateside yet. The rest are pretty well expected nominees with the first showing for Kaouther Ben Hania and The Voice of Hind Rajab (at least recently). Nominations Tallies (7) One Battle After Another

    10th Hawaii Critics Nominations

    32 categories for such a small organization. Doesn’t seem necessary. They are also so small that their idiosyncrasies can secure nominations for otherwise ignored Seyfried in The Housemaid, though they largely stay with the current conventional wisdom in terms of nominations. Nominations Tallies (14) One Battle After Another, Sinners (10) Frankenstein (7) Sentimental Value (6)

    53rd Annie Awards Nominations

    Until now, you might have thought the competition was between KPop Demon Hunters and Zootopia 2 but with the Annie Awards, the most nominations is key to winning and it looks like Elio showed up everywhere in a bit of a surprise move.

    Box Office History (Week 1, 2026)

    Every week, we’ll take a look back at how Oscar-nominated films performed at the box office. Due to the lack of data prior to 1980, some of these early years may have minimal information.

    31st Critics Choice Awards

    The awards have wrapped up and many of the frontrunners won and several that weren’t leading may have pulled forward.
