Awards -- San Diego Film Critics

I always find the San Diego critics to be a fun group to watch. Their choices are far more eclectic than most, and their nominees are always kinda fun. Nice mentions for a lot of the usuals, but also a few surprises. Nice mentions for Shutter Island, Scott Pilgrim, and The Town, among others. Here are the full nominees...

[Edit] They have now announced their winners, going with Winter's Bone in 3 categories including Best Picture. Love the editing win for Scott Pilgrim!
