MOONLIGHT WINS FIVE SOS CRITICS TALLY AWARDS

They're not always the most reliable, but you can usually count on the critics to make the smart choices. Moonlight wins five awards from the Screen On Screen Critics Tally awards, which compiles the results of dozens of critics groups and polls and assigns those results specific points values.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD WINS FIVE SOS CRITICS' TALLY AWARDS!

Nearly three months after the first critics group announced its choices, here are the results of the 2015 Screen On Screen Critics' Tally. Carol claims the most nominations with eight, but wins none, as the competition is steamrolled by Mad Max: Fury Road, which wins five of seven nominations. Of the five films nominated for Best Picture, only three appear on Oscar's list of eight, and neither The Big Short nor The Revenant, each tipped to win Oscar's top award by many pundits, appear here. The only category to perfectly match the Academy's is Leading Actor, where Eddie Redmayne secures a nomination for The Danish Girl despite his co-star Alicia Vikander missing; never mind, she wins the Supporting Actress award for Ex Machina. These awards were devised by assigning point values to awards and polls from critics groups, with more influential groups carrying greater values to less influential ones.

THE 2013 CRITICS TALLY - 12 YEARS A SLAVE WINS BEST PICTURE

Would you like to know how deep my obsession for this thing runs? Kk, here it is: each year, I make a comprehensive tally of all of the major critic organisations' choices for the best of 2013. I assign each of their picks a score, with the ultimate score for a win in any category or on any list being 10 points. From there, based on a value I assigned to each individual group, I multiply these scores by as much as 10, thus weighting the overall results in favour of the more influential (slash intelligent) groups.
