Phoenix here, AAFCA here. Additionally, “Winter’s Bone” won the top honor with the San Diego critics.  Check out that intriguing list of winners here.  Still waiting to hear what won Best Documentary and Best Foreign Language Film, though.  Moving right along…

    Apparently San Diego’s picks are also up. Winter’s Bone’s the winner.

    Nice to see Kristin Scott Thomas show up somewhere. Who’d have thought it’d be in Phoenix?

    It seems the Globes and AAFCA both bowed down to Wahlberg power.

    OH MY GOD, a movie NOT called The Social Network won Best Film from a critics’ group?!?!?

    Happy to see Manville win (even if it is in supporting) and something besides Social Network take a best picture award.

    Kris, hate to bring this up, but… the tag is not properly written on The Circuit’s page.

    On the bright side, it kinda looks like if everybody had won at everything. ☺

    I love the nominations from Pheonix. However, the exclusion of Kidman irritates me slightly. And from that slight irritation, the thing that grates the most is the fact that I cant choose an actress to substitute her with (I haven’t seen all the performances nominated, but they’re all so god damned talented!)

    Good to hear Aronofsky’s name quite a bit.

    Phoenix certainly has the most different parade of winners by far.

    Andrej: Just now seeing your comment. Seems to be working fine. Maybe you caught it in the middle of the update.

    I’ve tried on two computers with Chrome and Explorer and it still looks bold everywhere.

    Checking out the source code, it looks like the tag you used for the winners is not correctly written. Here’s a screenshot: http://goo.gl/neSR9

    No, Kris. It really doesn’t. On the last half of the page (from Best Director Category for SAN DIEGO FILM CRITICS down) has everything in bold.

    Oh wow.. San Diego Film Critics has by far the most interesting nominations and winners! Would be in Heaven if I got to see something like that at the Oscars.

    That is so bizarre. It looks perfectly fine on Safari and Firefox and the code is indeed written correctly, but I see that in Chrome some glitch is screwing it up. WTF? I’ll have to get into it. Sorry guys.

    Weird. Should be correct now, though.
