Well today, the nominations for Critics Choice (or Broadcast Film Critics Association) Awards 2012 were announced. Lincoln leads with 13 nominations (a record) followed by Les Miserables with 11 Silver Linings Playbook with 10, Life of Pi with 9 while Argo, The Master and Skyfall tied with 7 nominations each. If you look at the nominations for acting categories, it looks like this is what the Academy might go with. Actors from Skyfall like Judi Dench and Javier Bardem got in too and also Matthew McConaughey got nominated for Magic Mike. Both Flight and Looper showed up in Original Screenplay category while the much deserving The Perks of Being a Wallflower got nominated for Adapted Screenplay as well. Just like Peoples Choice, they have separate categories for Action/Comedy/Sci-fi-Horror too! I am overall pretty pleased by their picks and it might just present a clearer much closer account of what the actual Oscar race might turns out to be.
