With all the industry news this week, it seems lame to still be reporting on the critics wins, but here we are with what I do believe are the last two stragglers in the bunch.
GEORGIA FILM CRITICS
Nothing too interesting to see here, and I'm still holding out hope that Stallone lands that Oscar nom after his strong critics run, even if it seems like Rylance is now the one to beat in that category for sure. Snobby, snobby industry voters.

CENTRAL OHIO FILM CRITICS
Not much to note here either, except another win for Benicio Del Toro, who may be a late breaker in that category, after having landed a BAFTA nom today for Sicario. He is undoubtedly the best part of that movie, so I'm really crossing my fingers for that one too.
