Historically, the 'Critics' Choice Awards' have been regarded as the most accurate predictor of the 'Academy Awards' nominations.

The 'Broadcast Film Critics Association' is the largest film critics' organization in the U.S. and Canada, representing more than 300 critics. The Broadcast Television Journalists Association, meanwhile, is the collective voice of almost 100 journalists.

The '22nd Annual Critics' Choice Awards' will kick off the award season December 11.(ANI)
