Skyfall is not only the highest grossing Bond film by a mile having topped $1 billion worldwide and nearing $300 million in the U.S., 
but it’s also the most critically acclaimed film in the series. I’m also stating here today that it will reap an Oscar nomination for Best Picture next week. Just how good of a shot does it have? I think a great one, especially with a nomination for the Producers Guild Award today. Skyfall becomes the first Bond film to be in the running for the PGA Award and joins Oscar front-runners Argo, Lincoln, Zero Dark Thirty, Silver Linings Playbook, Django Unchained, Life of Pi, and Les Miserables on the nomination list. Also getting nominated were the indie films Moonrise Kingdom and Beasts of the Southern Wild. I’d say the aforementioned 8 will all get Oscar nominations next week while the latter two are the most vulnerable to the films like The Impossible or The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. We will see… In the meantime, check out the PGA film nominees below and check back for the winners on January 26th.
