12 Years a Slave, American Hustle Dominate Critics’ Choice Movie Awards NominationsPosted by Wilson Morales
December 16, 2013
12 Years a Slave and American Hustle dominated the nominations for the 19th annual Critics’ Choice Movie Awards, with 13 nods each.
The best pic contenders are: “American Hustle,” “Captain Phillips” (six nominations), “Dallas Buyers Club” (three), “Gravity” (10 noms), “Her” (six), “Inside Llewyn Davis” (four), “Nebraska” (six), “Saving Mr. Banks” (four), “12 Years a Slave” and “The Wolf of Wall Street” (six).
The awards will be handed out Jan. 16, in a ceremony set to air live on The CW from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica and hosted by Aisha Tyler.
The organization, which consists of more than 250 television, radio and online critics, claims that, historically, the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards are the most accurate predictor of the Academy Award nominations.
Last year, eight of the org’s 10 best-picture nominees also earned Oscar nominations, a great batting average considering the Academy Awards only had nine best-picture slots. From 2009-2011 (when Oscar had more than five contenders for best pic), the Film Critics Assn. saw nine, nine and seven out of their 10 proceed to Oscar noms. From 2003-2008, when Oscar had five slots, all five of them had been included in the critics’ 10 choices.
