I'm more irritated than delighted by awards that announce some nominees now and some nominees later, and I'm confused by why they're breaking the nominations period into a split year (I know why festivals do this, because the festival is a fixed point and the award is designed to drive attention to the festival, but I can't yet tell why this awards program needs to), and I don't know why the formal announcement has more voting-policy discussion in it than it has material about the nominees. In the end, though, it's a pretty good list of nominees, and that's what matters. Congratulations to them all.
