Vote for the 9th Annual Flickcharters’ Choice Awards!
For the ninth year, members of the “Flickcharters” discussion group on Facebook have submitted ballots in a number of categories to create The Flickcharters’ Choice Awards. In the past, Drive, Django Unchained, Gravity, Guardians of the Galaxy, Mad Max: Fury Road, La La Land, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Baby Driver have taken our top honors for Best Picture, and last year’s winner was A Quiet Place. As you can see from that selection, The Flickcharters’ Choice Awards are a mixture of critically-beloved films and crowd-pleasers that are typically overlooked for other end-of-the-year awards.
After collecting ballots throughout January, we present to you the nominees for the 9th Annual Flickcharters’ Choice Awards!
