The Social Network may not have swept the critics awards and polls in 2010 like other movies did before it, but its Best Picture dominance was unlike anything seen ever before or since. Four Critics Consensus Awards for the David Fincher drama, and three for Christopher Nolan's Inception, including beating The Social Network to Best Editing, an award for which it was bizarrely snubbed chez Oscar. The Academy agreed with the critics in all four acting categories, though. 2010's CCA nominations can be viewed here, and its award winners in full below.
