Precursor: 11th D.C. Area Film Critics (2012)
The accolades for Zero Dark Thirty continue to roll in. Anne Hathaway’s awards traction has finally begun, though it may be short-lived if other groups decide it’s not the kind of film for them. ParaNorman picks up another Animated Feature award and Philip Seymour Hoffman nabs his first. Award Tallies (3) Zero Dark Thirty (2)…

Precursor: 17th San Diego Film Critics Nominations (2012)
It’s strange that after all of this attention on Emmanuelle Riva that her name doesn’t appear on the Best Actress slate. They saw the film or it wouldn’t be in the Foreign Language race, but hers wasn’t included. Was it a decision not to highlight her without being able to recognize her co-star Jean-Louis Trintignant…

Precursor: 38th Los Angeles Film Critics Association (2012)
Taking a completely different approach than its East Coast counterpart, The Los Angeles Film Critics Association go completely unique directions, giving its top prize to Michael Haneke’s Amour, along with top prizes for Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress to The Master.

The Inbox (Dec. 1-7, 2012)
Every week, I get several press releases, screening invitations and other notifications from a handful of studio contacts. While I won’t be sharing any information regarding my screening invites, some of the press releases might be of interest to my readers, so I thought I’d start sharing them in toto with all of you. These…

Precursor: 11th D.C. Area Film Critics Nominations (2012)
Announcing their nominees a day ahead of their awards, D.C. has the quickest turnaround of all of the critics organizations that have nominations. Being so centrally located, it’s probably easier to get everyone to cast votes for the winners, though the internet makes it even more simple (if everyone’s already seen the nominees). With its…

Precursor: 1st Boston Online Film Critics
Association Awards (2012)A brand new awards group (I didn’t think there were any more to make) based in Boston, mirroring the online version of the New York critics. A few new entries are included, but this is largely a carbon copy of other groups with some very interesting selections in their top ten list. Award Tallies (4)…

Screener Watch: Disney, DreamWorks, Paramount
In a decade-long absence, Disney has not provided us with screeners. That changed this year Brave, Frankenweenie and Wreck-It Ralph. Granted, it’s only their animated slate, but it’s a start. DreamWorks sent over Lincoln and Paramount sent Flight. My weekend is dreadfully busy as it is. This just makes it worse.
