Forget the Oscars, and don't bother with the BAFTAs, because the Jameson Empire Awards 2014 are just around the corner, and the full list of nominees, as chosen by you, is now here. Have alook at the full shortlist below and then you can vote for the winners.

Leading the reader-voted pack is The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug, with seven nominations, then 12 Years A Slave, with six. Close behind is Captain Phillips and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, both with five nominations, and after that Gravity, which has four.

Captain Phillips director Paul Greengrass will receive this year's Empire Inspiration Award. The Jameson Empire Awards will be presented on March 30 in London at a wildly glamorous and only slightly anarchic ceremony.
