Oscar Season Schedule

It’s hard to believe another year of awards have begun. This coming week, the very first precursors announce their nominations (Film Independent’s Spirit Awards). So, in prep of the upcoming glut of precursors, here is a schedule of those soon-to-come events. Since I am unable to verify several dates, I have had to make estimates based on last year’s dates. So, here’s what’s coming up:
