2024 Gold Derby Film Awards nominations voting open! Support your favorite movies of the year
Nobody knows awards better than the experts, editors and users at Gold Derby, so we launched our own prizes for film in 2002 and for TV in 2004. Vote for your favorites in 22 categories for the Gold Derby Film Awards Nominations 2024. You can rank your top three choices in almost every category except for Best Picture, for which you can vote for five choices. Vote by clicking on a category above. Below: Grab contenders one by one from the left column and add them to the right column by clicking on the green + symbol. Arrange in the order you choose to vote (#1 is your top choice). Grab each entry and move it up or down. (Illustrated instructions are at the bottom of this post.) You have until the end of January 14 to make or change your final selections.
Register for a free Gold Derby account if you haven’t already. Visit our predictions center here. Then scroll down to “Gold Derby Film Awards Nominations 2024” and click the green box that says “VOTE” to make your choices in as many or as few categories as you like. This year there were blockbusters like “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie” out in full force, while smaller art-house films like “Past Lives,” “Anatomy of a Fall” and “The Zone of Interest” have also flexed their awards muscle and more recent movies such as “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Maestro,” “May December” and “Poor Things” are just now being seen. So make sure to support your favorites. Sometimes races are so close that one ballot is all it takes to make the difference between a nomination and a snub.

Voting for our awards has changed over the years. From 2002-2010 voting took place via secret ballot through our message boards. In 2011 voting moved to our predictions center, and while Gold Derby agreed with the Oscars from 2011-2013, our users have gone their own way most of the time since then.
In 2014 the Oscars went to “Birdman” as Best Picture, but we went with “Boyhood.” In 2015 the Oscars chose “Spotlight,” but we opted for “Mad Max: Fury Road.” In 2016 the Oscars surprised us by awarding “Moonlight” while we (like most other awards groups) picked “La La Land.” For 2017 the Oscars awarded “The Shape of Water,” while we gave top honors to “Call Me by Your Name.” And for 2018 we gave Best Picture to “Roma” while the Oscars preferred “Green Book.”
Gold Derby and Oscar agreed for the next two years: we both picked “Parasite” for 2019, which also went on to win our award for the best film of the decade, and then “Nomadland” won both for 2020. But there was another split for 2021: “The Power of the Dog” was awarded by Gold Derby, while “CODA” was the choice of the motion picture academy. Most recently, judging the films of 2022, both Gold Derby and the motion picture academy went with “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” Check out the complete list of winners from last year’s awards right here. All our winners for Best Picture are listed below.
