Oscar Precursors?

For those of you keeping your eye on the Oscar season, and considering what movies to take in over the holidays or put in your queue, this is the big week of critics awards. Yesterday we saw the American Film Institute's Top 10 (and check out their tv top 10 - Big Bang! Glee!), the Los Angeles Film Critics' picks, the New York Film Critics Online (not the big New York critics group), and the Boston film critics favorites announced. The New York Film Critics Circle will announce its award winners today, and the Golden Globe nominees will be announced tomorrow. I'm happy to see so much love for Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker and the occasional love for The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Coraline, and (500) Days of Summer, but I'm also reminded that there quite a lot of things I still need to see.

UPDATE: And the New York Film Critics Circle speaks - Picture & Director for The Hurt Locker and Kathryn Bigelow, Actress going to Meryl Streep, Actor to George Clooney, the Supporting Awards go to Mo'Nique and Waltz (who seem to be winning those prizes everywhere), Screenplay goes to In The Loop, and Animated Film goes to The Fantastic Mr. Fox.
