The Producers Guild of America has announced their nominations for the PGA Awards and it's hard not to agree with every movie on the list. All of the ones I've seen are great films, and the ones I haven't seen I've heard are amazing. The only two on the list I haven't watched are The Artist and The Descendants, both of which I'm looking forward to seeing. I'd love Hugo or War Horse to take home the top prize though. Those were my two favorite movies of 2011. The winners will be announced on January 21st, 2012; check out the full press released with the list of nominations below and tell us what you think!

Owen Wilson, Alison Pill in Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris The biggest surprise among the Producers Guild of America (PGA) Theatrical Motion Picture nominations was the inclusion of George Clooney's political drama The Ides of March, which hasn't exactly been a critical favorite or a runaway box-office hit. Also in the running for the Darryl F. Zanuck Producer of the Year Award in Theatrical Motion Pictures are nine other narrative features, including Steven Spielberg's War Horse, Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris, Michel Hazanavicius' The Artist, and Martin Scorsese's Hugo. [Full list of PGA Award nominations.] Left out of the race were Terrence Malick's Palme d'Or winner The Tree of Life, Tomas Alfredson's Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive, Clint Eastwood's J. Edgar, David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method, and Stephen Daldry's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Not to mention Lars von Trier's Melancholia,...

The mainstream media grants little-to-no attention toward the PGA Awards, but their influence over the Academy and the Best Picture nominees is absolutely impossible to refute. IndieWIRE points out that, in the past four years, all the recipients of the top Oscar prize have been victorious with the PGA; if that weren’t enough — when, let’s be honest, it should be — nine out of last year’s ten nominees were recognized by the group.
They’re kind of a big deal, is the point that needs to be communicated.
Because of that, though, the 2012 selections raise a couple of eyebrows. No one is surprised to see The Artist, The Descendants, War Horse, or even Hugo stake their claim — it’s very likely that one of the four will win Best Picture — yet, with those previously-stated facts in mind, the recognition of Bridesmaids, The Ides of March, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo...

Here's your best indicator yet as to what the crop of nominations for the Best Picture Oscar is likely to be. The Producers Guild of America (PGA) has announced its nominations for 2011 awards, which will be doled out on January 21. The ten films nominated for the PGA's top honor include expected pictures such as The Artist, The Descendants and War Horse. There are no real surprises, but the growing Oscar chances for The Help won't be hurt by getting a PGA nomination (would be slightly wild to see Chris Columbus, a producer on The Help, with an Oscar), and Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris makes an appearance on the list, too. There are a couple surprises, though, in the form of Bridesmaids and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo -- the Judd Apatow and Scott Rudin effects in full force there. With 5-10 Best Picture nominations possible for this year's Oscars,...
