Where’s June Squibb!?!?
I’m happy about Brie Larson and Adele, though!
I love all the love for Short Term 12 and Brie Larson well deserved!!!!!
I adore, i love, i everything this group of critics only for the nomination for the best performane by a male actor in a leading role for the brilliant, the outstanding, the mesmerizing, the sensational performance by Mads Mikkelsen in “The Hunt”! No Chiwetel Ejiofor, no Robert Redford, no Matthew McConaughey, no Bruce Dern, no … can beat that performance in my Opinion! What a Performance!
Who won http://tiny.pl/qrzgd
Lmao Matthew…
@Paddy No it’s not eligible for next year because of release date.
Director, Actor and Supporting Actor shine, plus lots of Llewyn Love.
whats important here is that they chose some superb performances who are outside the race and its a shame they are absent from any predix and buzz. naming Mikkelsen (if the film was american, he d be a lock), Delpy(along with Adele and Larson, nice difference from the predicted indifference), Rockwell and MMC for Mud (whats it with him, no dallas buyers, no magic mike, dont get it) in an open category with two locks at this point, and scarlett with seydoux in a more crowded supporting female . wish it could matter and turn these performances as contenders but i guess it wont
Last year I wanted Ang Lee to be nominated for Best Director… he won.
This year I want Hayao Miyazaki to be the first director to get a Best Director nom for an animated film…
Before Midnight!!! Yeah,it´s my fav of the year so far
Happy to see Amy Adams in the list. but they didnt see TWOWS, right?
Matthew, would The Wolf of Wall Street be eligible for next year then?
A good day for Johnnie To fans!
3 Online Film Critics Society Awards nominations, including Best Picture! Best Film Not In the English Language, Best Editing
DRUG WAR makes #33 of Rotten Tomatoes’ Best of 2013!
it is one of the best foreign film this year, and much better than Hong Kong’s entry ‘THE GRANDMASTER’
@Alper – Find me a single “little tiny girl also hopeless” that can do the big fight scene with that many levels and that much power and I’ll show you a time machine that I invented in my basement
Most of us had not seen WOLF OF WALL STREET by balloting time. According to our bylaws, films must have been seen by at least 20% of the membership to be eligible, although that probably doesn’t matter because with less than 20% able to vote for it it probably wouldn’t get nominated anyway. Unfortunately our voting deadline was set last year, so there wasn’t much we could do. I wish we could have seen it in time for voting. But it is what it is.
Now THAT is a best actress line-up
Btw I also love how predicting which voting body votes for what isn’t completely bullshit, there’s almost a science and thinking back years of nominations. Every voting body is the same but also oh so different…depends on which filmmaker is in the mix.
I do see BFCA and HFPA going for Wolf.
@Alper, what do you mean “tiny”?
It’s obvious all these smaller critics groups are proceeding with their nominations and awards without having seen THE WOLF OF WALL STREET.
Munich still fared well enough under similar circumstances. And The Wolf of Wall Street has been well-supported by some groups so far. Plus it’ll likely be popular with audiences when released.
My favorite nominations so far if just for the inclusion of Julie Delpy and Oscar Isaac.
Blue is the warmest color is the most overrated movie of 2013.
Adele is just a little tiny girl also hopeless.
Cate Blanchett “the Goddess” will win.
Jerry, if I remember correctly Ellen DeGeneres was nominated by the Chicago Critics for Finding Nemo and Eddie Murphy was nominated by BAFTA for Shrek. Does Scarlett stand a chance though? Even if Lupita and Lawrence weren’t in the mix it’d be hard to say if they’d give the award just for vocal work…then again she was nominated for a reason.
It’s obvious all these smaller critics groups are proceeding with their nominations and awards without having seen THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. It is what it is, and it’s nobody’s fault of course. I’m sure their deadlines were set long ago, and nobody expects Scorsese and Schoonmaker to rush on account of critics awards (or any awards), but I’ve read whispers that Paramount could have been a bit more diligent about making screenings more widely available everywhere, at first it was a matter of Scorsese wanting certain standards met for the screenings and not many venues met his criteria, but once the ball was rolling, the distributor should have gone all out (screeners are not yet part of the picture). Apparently, a lot of SAG nominating-committee people didn’t get to see it either before their deadline which could hurt its chances, (Hill, Dicaprio and who knows if they all loved it as much as reported from that initial screening, Ensemble) I’m still betting both Hill and DiCaprio get SAG nominations to accompany their respective Golden Globe nominations, when we’ll have a better picture of its Oscar chances. Is Scorsese in for Directing nods from HFPA and BFCA?
@Kane – Thank goodness Foxcatcher wasn’t released. I’m a huge fan of everything Miller has done so far and would hate to see yet another film get tossed into the shuffle at this point. Can’t wait for next year.
@Jerry – I think that ScarJo is a contender, but will miss out ultimately due to academy bias. I would love so much to be proven wrong, but as you note, it has never happened before. Never even close. Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy, and later Ellen DeGeneres all had shots but missed out. Brilliant motion capture performances can’t even get in (Andy Serkis in LOTR or Rise of the Planet of the Apes), so a performance that you can’t see at ALL is a tough sell. Nonetheless, she’ll be in my top 3 s. actress performances this year, no question.
Question: Did they see “Wolf of Wall Street”? How telling is its omission here?
Nice to see Sally Hawkins for “Blue Jasmine.” The second-best performance in that movie.
Is Scarlett actually a contender for a nomination? Has that ever happened in the past? (No one for an animated movie unless I’m wrong… not even Robin Williams for the Genie.)
@Ricky, once Wolf of Wall Street is released I think it’ll throw the biggest wrench into the race. We only think we know what’s going on…can you imagine if Foxcatcher was released this year too?
I’m liking these nominees. This may be Mads Mikkelsen’s 1-stop-shop ala Sharlto Copley for District 9 but at least it gives just a hint of exposure. Same for Sam Rockwell. Abdi, though, is heading to the BFCA and maybe SAG…doubt the Globes. Here’s hoping it’s Oscar bound for him!
THE WIND RISES!!
MUSEUM HOURS!!
MADS MIKKELSEN!!
BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOUR!!
SAM ROCKWELL!!
SALLY HAWKINS!!
DRUG WAR!!

Well these were fun! It’s impossible to find a consensus at all in this race so far, which is just fantastic… but it is beginning to look like there are five films that stand any chance of winning Best Picture
12 Years a Slave
American Hustle
Her
Gravity
The Wolf of Wall Street
Right Behind:
Inside Llewyn Davis
Nebraska
Pretty soon, once Wolf has been more widely seen, we’ll be looking at those seven as locks I’m thinking. I do believe there are more surprises in store for us. For now, let’s just look at all the fun choices the OFCS made!
Best Picture: Drug War! Short Term 12! The Wind Rises!
Best Director: Miyazaki (!!)
Best Actor: Mikkelson, Phoenix, Isaac
Best Actress: Delpy, Exarchapolous, Adams, Larsen (wow)
Best S. Actor: McConaughey!, Rockwell
Best S. Actress: Hawkins, Johansson (YES), Seydoux (yesss)
Best O. Screenplay: Museum Hours
Best A. Screenplay: In the House, Short Term 12, The Wind Rises
Best Editing: Drug War, Her, Inside Llewyn David
Best Cinematography: The Grandmaster, The Great Beauty
I’ve reached the point where I no longer feel the need to be shocked by Her’s mentions everywhere. This makes me overjoyed.
They sure liked The Wind Rises. Nice of them to also include a second Miyazaki film (last year’s From up on Poppy Hill) in their animated lineup, even though it bumped out Ernest and Celestine.
