8th Online Female Critics Nominations
The online female film critics have spoken and it’s a surprisingly male-centric set of nominees. Many of the women-oriented films (other than The Substance and Anora) were largely ignored. Most of their selections are familiar, so it largely lacks a clear voice. Nominations Tallies (9) Conclave, The Substance (7) Anora (5) The Brutalist, Dune: Part…

14th Nevada Critics Awards
Nevada loves The Brutalist but didn’t mind a few other titles. Nothing really earth shattering here. Award Tallies (7) The Brutalist (2) Wicked (1) Conclave, Emilia Pérez, Flow, Sugarcane The Awards Best Film The Brutalist Best Animated Movie Flow Best Director Brady Corbet – The Brutalist Best Actor Adrien Brody – The Brutalist Best Actress…

28th Florida Critics Nominations & Awards
Florida’s film critics have tried very hard to do some unique things. Their list strikes me as trying too hard. They avoided some baity films but their back-ups were unusual and not in an intriguing way. This is perhaps one of their most alarmingly batty lists. Award Tallies (3) The Beast (2) Dune: Part Two…

WRITERS GUILD OF…

4th Critics Choice Super Awards
No film swept the specific genre categories with several films winning multiple awards. What will always be shocking is when a non-Best Picture nominee beats out a Best Picture nominee. Poor Things being so good it deserves a Best Picture nomination but not good enough to beat Godzilla Minus One? Preposterous. Awards Tallies (2) Godzilla…

4th Critics Choice Super Awards Nominations
With some odd category placements these nominations are a bit confusing. Nominations Tallies (5) Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One (4) Godzilla Minus One, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, Poor Things (3) Evil Dead Rise, M3GAN, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2) Blue Beetle, The Creator, Extraction 2, Nimona, Scream…

55th NAACP Image Awards
They might as well have named their awards the NAACP Color Purple Awards since that film absolutely dominated everyone else. It makes sense since the film was the only one that really seemed like an Oscar contender that wasn’t. Awards Tallies (11) The Color Purple (2) Brother, Creed III, Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (1) The…

28th Satellite Awards
The Satellite Awards went different directions in the craft categories but mostly provided minimal surprises. Award Tallies (4) The Holdovers, Oppenheimer (3) Maestro (2) American Fiction, Barbie, Poor Things (1) Bad Press, The Boy and the Heron, Killers of the Flower Moon, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Napoleon, The Zone of Interest The…
