 By Will Mavity As of yesterday, the IMDB forums will be shutting down after nearly 20 years of existence. Though there has been plenty of toxicity in recent years, the Movie Awards (previously known as Oscar Buzz) forum has been home to one of the internet’s most entertaining awards groups for more than a decade: The IMDB Critics Circle (or ICC). Founded for the 2006-2007 awards season, The ICC celebrates the best in the previous year’s films as the users of Movie Awards see it. Every year we receive between 70 and 120 ballots as part of the nominations round, and 100+ for the winners round. We began the 10-nomination concept for Best Picture before AMPAS, beginning instead in 2007. And we extended this lineup to all of the “big 8” categories. We also added in extra “below the line” categories: Ensemble, Choreography, Breakthrough Performance of the Year, etc. As the forum ends, this will be the awards’ final year. As we reflect on the negativity that thrived in the IMDB forums, let us not forget, something wonderful arose from those boards as well, an awards show that has long featured community contributions, In Memoriam montages, pranks, gags, and a rich history of shocks and upsets. As such, here are the nominees for the 2017 (and final) ICCs. For a list of previous ICC nominations and wins (some, particularly the early years are wild), go here Reviews are highlighted in yellow BEST PICTURE American Honey Arrival Jackie La La Land The Lobster Manchester by the Sea Moonlight Silence Toni Erdmann The Witch BEST DIRECTOR Maren Ade | Toni Erdmann Andrea Arnold | American Honey Damien Chazelle | La La Land Robert Eggers | The Witch Barry Jenkins | Moonlight Yorgos Lanthimos | The Lobster Pablo Larraín | Jackie Kenneth Lonergan | Manchester by the Sea Martin Scorsese | Silence Denis Villeneuve | Arrival BEST ACTRESS Amy Adams | Arrival Kate Beckinsale | Love & Friendship Annette Bening | 20th Century Women Sonia Braga | Aquarius Rebecca Hall | Christine Sandra Hüller | Toni Erdmann Isabelle Huppert | Elle Ruth Negga | Loving Natalie Portman | Jackie Emma Stone | La La Land BEST ACTOR Casey Affleck | Manchester by the Sea Jeff Bridges | Hell or High Water Adam Driver | Paterson Joel Edgerton | Loving Colin Farrell | The Lobster Andrew Garfield | Silence Ryan Gosling | La La Land Viggo Mortensen | Captain Fantastic Peter Simonischek | Toni Erdmann Denzel Washington | Fences BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS Viola Davis | Fences Kate Dickie | The Witch Lily Gladstone | Certain Women Naomie Harris | Moonlight Riley Keough | American Honey Nicole Kidman | Lion Imogen Poots | Green Room Molly Shannon | Other People Rachel Weisz | The Lobster Michelle Williams | Manchester by the Sea BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR Mahershala Ali | Moonlight Alden Ehrenreich | Hail, Caesar!
