  • Precursor: 17th Austin Critics Awards (2021)

    Another victory for The Power of the Dog with a strange discrepancy with their official top ten, which put Pig on top, which would explain its 3 awards. Awards Tallies (5) The Power of the Dog (3) Pig (2) Drive My Car, The Mitchells vs. the Machines The Awards

  • Precursor: 26th San Diego Critics Awards (2021)

    The Power of the Dog came out on top at San Diego, but wasn’t nearly as fond of it as their northern neighbors in San Francisco. A lot of unusual choices that haven’t reflected often in other groups. Awards Tallies (4) The Power of the Dog (2) Dune, Licorice Pizza, Mass, Parallel Mothers The Awards

  • Precursor: 20th San Francisco Critics Awards (2021)

    Winning all but one award for which it was nominated, The Power of the Dog outright dominated all other films, winning eight with no other film earning more than one award. Clearly a good day for Jane Campion’s film. Awards Tallies (8) The Power of the Dog The Awards

  • Precursor: 6th Seattle Critics Nominations (2021)

    Even against a technical juggernaut like Dune, which scored well with Seattle critics, The Power of the Dog still managed to dominate with one more nomination than Denis Villeneuve’s film. The Green Knight and Titane also did well with these nominations, but what’s most notable is that Belfast, without star Jude Hill, would have earned…

  • 94th Oscar Preview: Precursor Winners & Losers, Week 6

    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). We went from dullness over a two-week period to an influx of critics awards flooding our minds this…

  • Precursor: 79th Golden Globe Awards (2021)

    With all the negative buzz hanging around the Golden Globes, you have to wonder if some of these winners would have been the same in a normal year? Were they trying to say something by picking Will Smith or Ariana DeBose? Unfortunately, we might never know for sure. Their selections have become invariably tainted and…

  • Precursor: 56th National Society of Film Critics Awards (2021)

    Not much of interest here as they seem overly focused on ignoring American films in favor of foreign ones. Even the season-dominant The Power of the Dog struggled. Award Tallies (4) Drive My Car The Awards

  • Precursor: 6th Chicago Independent Critics Awards (2021)

    Another one on the board for Jane Campion and her film, which is mostly steamrolling competition this season. Awards Tallies (3) The Power of the Dog (2) The French Dispatch, Passing The Awards

  • Precursor: 20th San Francisco Critics Nominations (2021)

    The Power of the Dog outdistances Dune by three while Drive My Car and West Side Story do quite well as well. Nominations Tallies (9) The Power of the Dog (6) Dune (5) Drive My Car, West Side Story (4) The Green Knight, Licorice Pizza, The Lost Daughter (3) Belfast, Flee, The French Dispatch, Passing,…

  • Precursor: 26th San Diego Critics Nominations (2021)

    Belfast comes out on top in a rarity for the black-and-white drama, the only film to secure double-digit nominations. Nominations Tallies (12) Belfast (9) Dune (8) The Power of the Dog (7) Mass, Nightmare Alley (6) CODA (5) In the Heights (3) Don’t Look Up, Parallel Mothers The Nominations

  • Precursor: 11th Georgia Critics Nominations (2021)

    The Power of the Dog topped Licorice Pizza and West Side Story with Dune doing surprisingly weakly against them. Nominations Tallies (10) The Power of the Dog (8) Licorice Pizza, West Side Story (6) Dune (5) CODA, The Green Knight (4) Belfast, Flee, Mass, Titane (3) Encanto, The Tragedy of Macbeth The Nominations

  • Precursor: 6th Hawaii Critics Nominations (2021)

    The three big contenders for top nominations at the Oscars this year came out on top in a tie for Hawaii’s nominations. We’ll see what film comes out on top, but the surprise showing for Last Night in Soho isn’t going to be it. Nominations Tallies (10) Belfast, Dune, The Power of the Dog (9)…

  • Precursor: 20th Columbus Critics Awards (2021)

    Columbus critics proved that they have the power of love for The Power of the Dog and less so for Licorice Pizza. Nominations Tallies (8) The Power of the Dog (3) Licorice Pizza The Nominations

  • Precursor: 16th Oklahoma Critics Awards (2021)

    The Power of the Dog is the best in six categories, including Best Director, but not good enough to top Best Picture? Dubious. Award Tallies (6) The Power of the Dog (3) Licorice Pizza The Awards

  • Precursor: 10th North Carolina Critics Nominations & Awards (2021)

    North Carolina’s film critics released their nominations and winners today without any really huge surprises. The top two nominees came in first and second in the win count, though in reverse order with The Power of the Dog losing out to Dune by three nominations, but then topping it by one win. Nominations Tallies (13)…
