This is a somewhat more interesting set of nominations, even if it is flowing in the general current of the season for the most part. I like the love for Gosling and even Edgar Wright (despite my feelings on the film). Have a look at the full slate at The Circuit.

Favorite part: Edgar Wright
Second favorite nomination: Hawkes again!
Third favorite nomination: Breakthrough Performance nominees Moretz and Garfield have both of their respective 2010 films mentioned, while Wasikowska is apparently only nominated for her supporting role in The Kids Are Alright and not the $1 billion worldwide grosser she starred in. Guess the Detroit critics didn’t want their name showing up under Alice’s awards and nominations page on IMDB.
“Winter’s Bone”, is like an STD that won’t go away. I still don’t understand for the life of me, what was so great about the movie? I thought it was awful, and not worthy in any way of awards recognition.
Jackie Weaver and John Hawkes again!
And finally some Carey Mulligan, Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling love.
I’m glad to see some love for Scott Pilgrim, which I think is one of the most underrated films of the year. It’s also good to see John Hawkes’ name pop up again and a best actor list that does not include Robert Duvall in Get Low.
Minus the Bening/Manville snubbage, I’d be pretty content with these being the Oscar nominees.
Half empty these awards won’t show up in IMDB award page. In 2006 IMDB stopped taking additions for new awards, so don’t expect these nor the Houston Film critics (who announce tomorrow the 11th) to be on IMDB.
Even if it’s a lot of the same old, same old, I do love seeing John Hawkes and Greta Gerwig get a mention, both currently at the top of my lists. Also interesting that they found a spot for Carey Mulligan considering how fierce that category is this year.
No Annette Bening here? In fact, so far, she doesn´t win anything. Ouchh………….
Finally a mention for Gerwig, but who actually thinks she’s supporting?
