This weekend will be huge for awards geeks like myself as the LA Film Critics announce their winners this Sunday, followed by the NY Film Critics on Monday. They are make or break awards bodies, and fortunately for the film world, they usually make fairly bold choices. I'd expect big pull for something like The Hurt Locker, A Serious Man, and maybe Up. For some reason I think both organizations will temporarily stop the Up in the Air sweep, as LA and NY don't always hold up to group think mentality. Here's a look back at their history:
