Precursor: 3rd Seattle Critics Nominations (2018)
Another decent showing for First Man. Does this mean the film will be performing better at the Oscars? Unlikely as the five nominations the film got were below the line (save Claire Foy). The Favourite did incredibly well, as did Roma, Black Panther, and If Beale Street Could Talk. Mission: Impossible – Fallout even managed…

Precursor: 24th Broadcast Critics Nominations (2018)
Aided by the comedy categories, The Favourite pulled in the most nominations of the year with Black Panther doing incredibly well as well. First Man gets the first serious attention it’s received all season with double-digit nominations. Roma didn’t do nearly as well as the others, but had a solid run, though Green Book was…

Precursor: 13th St. Louis Critics Nominations (2018)
In a three-way tie for most nominations, The Favourite, A Star Is Born, and Vice were the big winners in these awards with Roma, BlacKkKlansman, and If Beale Street Could Talk also doing well. There are a handful of unusual selections, but for the most part this list follows the conventional narrative. Nominations Tallies (8)…

Precursor: 3rd New Mexico Critics (2018)
When we talk about minor critics awards, this group springs to mind since this is only their third year and they don’t pull up easily in search results on Google. That said, they have gone out of their way this year to look nothing like anything else out there. Sure, The Favourite did incredibly well,…

Toronto is also head-over-heels for Roma, but also gave equal attention to The Favourite and First Reformed. Steven Yuen continues to merit strong attention for Burning. A dark horse contender for a Supporting Actor nomination? Maybe. Award Tallies (2) The Favourite, First Reformed, Roma The Awards
