Critics Choice Nominations and UPDATES

So, the movies page is underway.  Check it out.  Now.

Other than that, the Critics Choice Nominations were released.  Here's a quick look at Best Picture:

What's in:
Birdman
Boyhood
Gone Girl
The Grand Budapest Hotel
The Imitation Game
Nightcrawler
Selma
The Theory of Everything
Unbroken
Whiplash

What's out:
Foxcatcher
A Most Violent Year
Inherent Vice
Into the Woods
American Sniper
St. Vincent

Only surprise is the shutout of Foxcatcher.  Other than that pick nine of those films and those will probably be the Oscar nominees.

The CCA's have six acting nominees, so they encompassed pretty much everyone that the Globes and SAG awards have already touched upon.

It's also important to note that this is the first major award show that nominates for technical categories as well, so we get a glimpse into categories like Editing and Cinematography, before the guilds put out their nominations.  You can see the whole list of noms in the Critics Awards section.

So, for a couple weeks, I'll be signing off to watch an abhorrent amount of movies.  Hope you're doing the same.  Happy viewing!!
