31st Critics Choice Nominations
Sinners pulled out a surprisingly large number of nominations while One Battle After Another did quite well as well. There are a few surprises here or there but mostly what we’ve been talking about so far this year. Nominations Tallies (17) Sinners (14) One Battle After Another (11) Frankenstein, Hamnet (8) Marty Supreme (7) F1,…

25th American Film Institute Top Ten
Jay Kelly is the only surprising inclusion in this list, especially since it seemed to have faded into obscurity since it’s release. Otherwise, mostly films we expected to see. Typically, the Academy’s list will include most of these but with that special award win, It Was Just an Accident will certainly be one of the…

97th National Board of Review Awards
Another major win for One Battle After Another. If they can pick up the National Society of Film Critics and Los Angeles Film Critics awards, that might be the end of the race. One surprising omission is Hamnet, which didn’t get into the top “10” list at all. A bit shocking for the one film…

41st Spirit Award Nominations
There was a time when the Spirit Awards were as far removed from the Oscar nominations as anything. In recent years, as the Academy has become more cognizant of indie work, that connection has merged. This year’s list is pretty far removed from the trend and reverts to its obscure selections bolstered by a handful…

91st New York Critics Awards
The New York Film Critics Circle remains idiosyncratic, taking mainstream Hollywood and blending it with non-English winners. The Jafar Panahi win is likely the result of the recent conviction he was given in absentia. The rest seem pretty standard for this group with a few winners likely to carry over but most not. Awards Tallies…

35th Gotham Awards
The Gotham Awards are usually idiosyncratic and these selections largely follow that trend with not-quite-indie One Battle After Another and Sinners pulling wins they wouldn’t have picked up in years past had they not removed their budgetary limitations for nominations. Though, you have to wonder when voting ended because the It Was Just an Accident…

38th European Film Excellence Nominations
They’ve added a casting director award but removed the award for visual effects. Not much to see here. Nominations Tallies (5) Bugonia, Siråt, Sound of Falling (3) Sentimental Value (2) Franz (1) Die My Love, Duse, The Stranger, The Voice of Hind Rajab The Nominations Best Casting Director Sentimental Value Siråt Sound of Falling Best…

9th Hollywood Creative Alliance Nominations (Full)
With their creative nominees announced last week and their full nominations today, we have the full info about the Astra Awards and they’ve really over-extended themselves to get as many nominees together as possible. The International Press Academy was the last organization that tried separating the supporting categories by drama and comedy/musical and even they…

16th Hollywood Music in Media Awards
Sinners won big while Diane Warren: Relentless likely secured an Oscar nomination from this win. That said, none of the winners here are guaranteed anything since this group is a relative neophyte in its Oscar correlations. Awards Tallies (3) Sinners (2) Diane Warren: Relentless (1) Avatar: Fire and Ash, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,…
