26th Film Music Critics Nominations
The Film Music critics have nominated a wide array of musical compositions for their awards. With multiple categories, it’s surprising that one of the Oscar nominees for Best Original Score (Killers of the Flower Moon) wasn’t nominated at all. Only two of them got multiple citations, Indiana Jones and Oppenheimer. It’s a good sign for…

44th London Critics Awards
I always find it interesting when the “best film of the year” doesn’t win corresponding awards for “best British/Irish film” or “best foreign language film” when also nominated. It makes it seem like it’s not the actual best film of the year but that others are better than it they just want to make a…

28th OFTA Film Nominations
The OFTA didn’t seem to shy away from Barbie like the Academy did, nominating it in several key categories the Academy ignored. That, on top of all of its non-Oscar category citations, allowed Barbie to top the record Titanic set back in 1997 for most nominations, by two. They don’t count the poster/trailer categories, so…

66th Grammy Awards
The Grammy winners we care about are always announced prior to the show. Here are those winners with Barbie out front with two. It’s possible Barbie picks up more wins throughout the night since the film has several nominations not just in these four categories. Award Tallies (2) Barbie The Awards Best Song Written for…

6th Latino Journalists Nominations
The Latino Entertainment Journalists Association, which has allowed its website to lapse making it difficult to come across these, put Barbie barely on top over Oppenheimer thanks to its three song citations. Poor Things and Killers of the Flower Moon also did well with Society of the Snow performing well in limited release. Award Tallies…

55th NAACP Image Awards Nominations
It’s no surprise that The Color Purple dominated these nominations. The overperformance of Rustin and They Cloned Tyrone, however, was not expected. There are also several TV programs in the below list because some of the categories are for both TV and film. As such, the nominations tallies for those titles are not accurate of…
