Last year in the lead up to the 2012 BAM Award Nominations I re-posted many nominees and winners of the previous BAM awards. While I did post a list of nominees, I did not post a list of winners. This was one I didn’t get to in time owing to some formatting changes I made. Below you will find the nominees and a winner listed below almost exactly as appeared on my MySpace blog and/or The Site That must Not Be Named the aforementioned follow-ups didn’t occur.

The Following are the BAM Award nominations and winners; for insight on why each category went the way it did please stay tuned. They reflect my opinion alone and are based solely on the films I was able to see during the course of the past calendar year. Due to the fact that year end releases are difficult, at times impossible, to see before the New Year comes there will be some older titles in the list. For a full explanation of this policy against the tyranny of release dates please go here.
