As the precursor awards continue unabated until Oscar night, I’m going to be providing a weekly update highlighting the films that have won and lost momentum through the precursor awards (and in some cases other outside influences).

Oscar Morning: The Article (2022)
Every year, I try to decide if I want to stick to my tradition or go in a new direction. At over 6,000 words last year, and with very little time left this year, I’ve had to consider what’s best for me and for you. That many words is hard to read and I suspect…

Precursor: 23rd Vancouver Critics Nominations (2022)
Vancouver loves their Canadian films, which always get the most nominations, but strangely Women Talking didn’t do terribly well compared to the other nominees. Everything Everywhere All at Once tied in the regular categories with The Banshees of Inisherin right on its heels. Nominations Tallies (9) Riceboy Sleeps (7) The Banshees of Inisherin, Everything Everywhere…

Precursor: 64th British Academy Nominations (2022)
Can history repeat itself at the Oscars, these nominations might suggest it’s possible. A new adaptation of the classic novel All Quiet on the Western Front crushed its competitors to come up ahead in the BAFTA nominations. Proving that American films weren’t all they were cracked up to be, Avatar: The Way of Water and…

Precursor: 36th USC Scripter Nominations (2022)
One of the most accurate precursors, the USC Scripter award for Best Adapted Screenplay. A couple of major Oscar contenders are missing. Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story is the most injured by these selections, though After Yang, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Whale, and White Noise aren’t going to feel much better…

Precursor: 21st Visual Effects Society Nominations (2022)
There was no doubt that Avatar: The Way of Water would come out on top of this year’s VES nominations, but even 14 is unheard of, a staggering total that certifies there is no competition for James Cameron’s film. That the next three highest nomination totals are animated films with a fourth tied with The…

Precursor: 31st Annie Awards Nominations (2022)
While Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio was the top vote getter, the film Disney tried to bury on Disney+ has the last laugh, picking up a strong 7 nominations while the studios other big tentpoles only picked up two each. The number of nominations overall is a bit muted this year with more films picking up…
