Critics’ Choice Movie Awards Nominations

RYAN: We sent in our recommendations for nominations and compiled with everyone else in the Broadcast Film Critics Association, today brings the announcement of all official nominees.

CAROLINE: It’s super exciting, kicking off awards season and being a part of the glamor of it all. 

RYAN: I have to say I’m glad of this list – no major surprises.  Lincoln leads with 13 noms, followed by Les Misérables with 11 and then Silver Linings Playbook with 10.

CAROLINE:  Impressive.  I just can’t believe Pitch Perfect didn’t make it in the Best Comedy category.

RYAN: Yeah that’s bogus.  Here’s the full list of nominees, which by the way, will also most likely reflect the Oscar nominations.
