Welcome to the Awards Circuit Community Awards Voting Station. We are diving back in time to revisit films and performances that might have deserved more recognition than previously thought. The next year in question is 2002, the year Rob Marshall’s “Chicago” triumphed at the Oscars over Stephen Daldry’s “The Hours” and Roman Polanski’s “The Pianist.” Do you feel the same way now? or do you feel something entirely different should have been in serious consideration? The great thing about these votes, is YOU are the deciding factor. Perhaps Steven Spielberg’s “Minority Report” is worthy of consideration or Alfonso Cuaron’s “Y Tu Mama Tambien.” Go for it!
Here are some rules for the voting process of the longlists:
- You can only vote ONE time per CATEGORY. Make it count.
- In every category, you can only choose FIVE contenders per category including a write-in for a film or performance that IS NOT LISTED. The “BEST SCREENPLAY” category you can choose TEN contenders but the five highest receiving ORIGINAL and ADAPTED SCREENPLAY films will be named as nominees. (In other words, choose five Original and five Adapted)
- Any write-in’s for a film that is already listed WILL NOT count towards that film.
- Voting will be open until Saturday, March 30, 2012 @ midnight. Use this time to catch up on all the films.
- The Staff will reveal their top ten films the following week after voting is closed and the nominees will be revealed. And of course, the Davis Award Nominees and Winners will be unveiled.
We are also welcoming FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION advertisements from YOU, the Reader! Campaign for your favorite films from 2002 and get the ball rolling for a film or performance that went forgotten. You can include them in the comment section as well as send them in where I will PLACE THE ADS ON THE SITE! Get some fame in the process!
Looking forward to all the ads and all of your selections!

Best picture isn’t showing up on the ballot. Is this intentional?
FYC: Best Supporting Actor – Robin Williams in Insomnia
Y Tu Mama Tambien for best foreign language dude!!!!!!!!!!!!??????
FYC: Y Tu Mama Tambien for best cinematography
Some of the best and most understated long shots in movie history!
FYC:
Hero for best cinematography! Need I explain why?
Naomi Watts for best actress! She carried the movie and made The Ring watchable.
And am i the only one thinking DDL should be supporting despite what all major awards say! I mean he was the villain of the movie for god’s sake.
FYC: Dennis Quaid for supporting actor! and Patricia Clarkson for supporting actress.
I rarely dive in to put out my own FYC, but I’ll make an exception for Campbell Scott’s amazing lead performance in Roger Dodger…
Also…Ryan Gosling was phenomenal in The Believer, worthy of some Best Actor consideration as well.
When Spielberg met Philip K. Dick and fused a bit of Hitchcock, I was in movie-going heaven watching “Minority Report.” J’Taime. Not voting, but if I were….that’s what it’d be for every possible category.
The Hours for Original Score. How Philip Glass isn’t an Oscar winning composer I just can’t understand.
The two biggest FYCs I’d throw out are for Mabriel Verdu (Best Actress) for “Y Tu Mama Tambien”, and Jeremy Renner (Best Actor) for “Dahmer.” I don’t think they’d make much headway, but I’m personally pulling for them.
If BP had 10 movies:
Adaptation
About Schmidt
Chicago
Catch Me If You Can
Far From Heaven
The Hours
Minority Report
Y Tu Mama Tambien
Talk To Her
Gangs Of New York
Road to Perdition just seems to be so underrated and underappreciated. It definitely gets my vote for Best Film of 2002, as well as Cinematography, Supporting Actor (Paul Newman) and Score (Thomas Newman). Though that said, 2002 was a great year with so many fantastic movies. I don’t expect ‘Road’ to make the nominations, but great film nonetheless.
What award year does Manic qualify for? It made the festival rounds in 2001, had a late year UK release in 2002, and was a limited release in the US during 2003. It’s one of my very favorite movies, so I’ve always wondered which Oscar season it qualified for.
2003
Don’t forget Best Actor for Edward Norton in 25th Hour. It’s one of his finest performances.
FYC

Awesome choices, would have loved to seen a nomination for Christopher Nolan for directing Insomnia and Hillary Seitz for Adapted Screenplay but great choices overall!
