CoolioD1 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 What is NBR?National Board of Review. They're not even real critics tbh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieman Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 To be fair, they are film historians, filmmakers, students and enthusiasts. Just because they are not critics doesn't mean they can't have their say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 I know, of course, but it's odd that they are always lumped together with the critics awards even though they're not actual critics. Still, I'll add their winners to the thread anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 New York tomorrow, (what time?) I'll predict 0D30 to win there but that's just a blind guess, so whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Probably sometime early afternoon EST.Yeah. Everything was said and done by this time last year. Artist was announced to be BP at 10:11am PST (1:11pm EST)I'm thinking that Argo wins. Edited December 2, 2012 by riczhang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Either ZD30 or Les Miserables will win at NYFCC. Both of the films have the inside track based on their background. ZD30 is helped by the fact that the NYFCC went for United 93.I just want a very diverse set of precursor winners so everything is up for grabs.

riczhang Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Hoping for Riva for actress. It seems like she could be the consensus option. There are equally as many people who rave her as Lawrence, but she doesn't have any detractors while Lawrence while minimal in number has a few.Les Miserables winning BP at NYFCC would be awesome.

TLK Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I am rooting for Riva to win Best Actress. She needs to win a couple of critics choice awards in order to build momentum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
