With the Critics’ Choice Awards announcing winners last night, the critics awards portion of awards season is essentially over. With 80 percent of the groups providing either nominees or runner-ups in addition to wins, we’ve decided to tabulate the results from each group into rankings category by category of who received the most mentions throughout the season.
To be clear…THESE ARE NOT PREDICTIONS. These are a ranking of who has the most critic group mentions throughout the season. Seeing such a broad consensus from so many different people can be telling as far as what a large voting body like the Academy may go for yes. But this is not set in stone. The Academy will undoubtedly differ from the critical consensus. Nonetheless, it’s fun to see who has the most mentions on the critics’ circuit.
One other thing I want to mention: This is a tally from critics groups only. No guild associations, no Golden Globes, no BAFTA’s, no Indie Spirits. Just critics groups.
