OSCAR WATCH: Critics Choice Nominations


Once again, 12 Years A Slave and American Hustle rise to the top, taking the lions share of nominations. The Critics Choice nominations were announced this morning and both films lead the field with 13 nominations each! David O. Russell's film in particular is picking up heat, notably with Christian Bale asserting himself in the competitive Best Actor category.
