Feeling awards season'd-out yet? I do hope not, because today, the Online Film Critics Society, of which I am a proud member (and prouder after our really rock-solid picks, if I may say so: A Separation for Screenplay; Brad Pitt in Tree of Life for Supporting Actor, and Carey Mulligan in Shame for Supporting Actress are especially satisfying). Some of the categories are, admittedly, stronger than others, but if only for our all-over-the-place love for Tree of Life, I'd be feeling pretty good about this.
To tease you, I present our nods for picture and director. The rest can be found on the OFCS blog.

Just a few rules so that everybody can have fun: ad hominem attacks on the blogger are fair; ad hominem attacks on other commenters will be deleted. And I will absolutely not stand for anything that is, in my judgment, demeaning, insulting or hateful to any gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion. And though I won't insist on keeping politics out, let's think long and hard before we say anything particularly inflammatory.
Also, sorry about the whole "must be a registered user" thing, but I do deeply hate to get spam, and I refuse to take on the totalitarian mantle of moderating comments, and I am much too lazy to try to migrate over to a better comments system than the one that comes pre-loaded with Blogger.
I have not seen Coriolanus, so I don't have any grounds but I'm still sad that the love for Vanessa seems to have dissipated. That list of best directors is solid, though, I've not seen The Artist but of the other four it's a list that's hard to argue with.
