Precursor: 17th San Diego Film Critics (2012)
This is the kind of list I like to see. Other than a couple of names, there are no duplicates with other critics groups. Argo‘s dominance is heartening as is the double win for The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Sadly, I don’t think San Diego, one of the oldest critics groups that began proliferating…

They have a strict U.S. only selection process, which eliminates films like Amour, but the New Zealand-based The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey could be eligible, but was it too foreign for them?
