Best Actress: December

[with_one_voice]

The Critics Choice Awards are being televised on a network channel, The CW, for the first time, so they're selling out hard. They need viewers, now that they'll air on a channel that people watch (occasionally). Hence the inclusion of acting categories like Action (Christian Bale!) and Comedy (Meryl Streep!).

Ew.

Next year we should remove them from the gold rush. We shouldn't dignify them. The circuit shouldn't dignify them.

ETA: Opinion subject to change if they award Les miserables.

And Weisz just won the high-profile and important NYFCC yesterday, and history proves she's in a great position because of it.

And screeners for the film were sent out in early October.

And Weisz is campaigning (she was on THR Roundtable), and was even on Variety's SAG preview with a writeup from Ralph Fiennes.

And she's well-known, likable Academy Award Winning actress.

Don't get me too excited for it!
Let's not forget she also has a nomination from London critics from last season already! Honestly: I am already glad that she won at NYFFC, everything else would just make this even better but I don't get my hopes up for something more...yet.
With that being said I can see BFCA going for her?

It's not a first. They use to screen the awards on The WB before it became The CW.

I just realized if the action turn out to be true then Jlaw will be a double winner!

And Gina Carano could get a nod.

[Solarie]

I don't think so that it's the rul;. Let's be honest, do you think taht voters think especially in one category, 'oh well... she won NBR, let's not vote for her'. To me it looks like she's obviously winning now!
