* I've yet to see The Danish Girl or The Big Short so I can't really judge those performances yet. But this is who I think will win.

My mistake, The Revenant has the most nods.

 

[kvz5]

Looks like Scott was the casualty of the BD snub.

Leo's ability to always get his co-stars supporting nods is amazing.

How Jeniffer Lawrence made the Best Actress list I don't know. But Brie Larson has that Oscar in the bag.

 

[vanson]

revenant also no writing nod.. which makes it very unlikely for Best Picture. I think Titanic is the only movie that ever won without the writing category.

 

[Boom]

Miller needs to win over Inarritu. That's all I ask.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Way to go, Sly!

 

[Supernova]

I hope Fassbender gets it over Leo honestly. I hate to say it I was just bored by the revenant and by the time it got going I was just not into it. I think Stallone has it for his category.

 

[Schlosser85]

While I'm pleasantly surprised to see Tom Hardy get a nomination, his dual role in Legend was far more Oscar-worthy, IMO, than his role in The Revenant. But Legend wasn't anything special as a movie, and got weak reviews and little exposure.

 

[jmc]

Stallone winning would bring so many people joy who have grown up watching his movies.

 

[CaptainWagner]

It stinks that Scott was snubbed for Director. And if they had to go with a suprise pick there, why not Ryan Coogler instead of the guy from Room. I had never heard his name in Director talk before now...

I'd also like to point out the sheer insanity of Writings on the Wall getting a nod over See You Again.

 

[vanson]

I hope Fassbender gets it over Leo honestly. I hate to say it I was just bored by the revenant and by the time it got going I was just not into it. I think Stallone has it for his category.

thats exactly how I felt about Revenant. Especially those pretentious flashbacks, those dragged so much -_- ..

 

[Schlosser85]

I'm surprised Depp for Black Mass isn't there.

 

[AnneFan]

How Jeniffer Lawrence made the Best Actress list I don't know. But Brie Larson has that Oscar in the bag.

Yeah, no idea either.

 

[kvz5]

Sly's got this.

Unfortunately the category fraud with Vikander and Mara opened up 2 spots for her to sneak in.

 

[kvz5]

I just realized that Sorkin was snubbed.

 

[Boom]

They only went with eight BP nominees?

That makes the Carol snub look worse.

 

[SKYpz]

Way to go, Sly!

Hell yeah

He and Leo deserve one!

 

[Drz]

I really hope Mad Max wins most of the awards with Bryan Cranston winning best male lead from Trumbo.

 

[kvz5]

They only went with eight BP nominees?

That makes the Carol snub look worse.

Yeah. I expected no Haynes but I was hoping for a BP nod.

Is Oscarssowhite and oscarssomale trending already?

 

[Fallen Angel]

Sly's got this.

Good ole category fraud. Got to love it! I'm just happy she ain't winning this time.

 

[Rocketman]

Wow, the Academy got it right for once. Best Picture and Best Director for Mad Max!! Go George!

 

[Dark Victory]

Usually I ***** and moan like a little **** about the Oscar nominations, but I think this list is pretty fair. Slightly bummed that Charlize Theron didn't get a nomination for "Mad Max", although it's awesome the movie's up for ten awards, especially best director and best picture. I'm pretty sure I was rolling my eyes at fans who expected her to get a nomination when the movie was initially released anyway.

More surprised that Carol didn't get nominated for best pic or best director. Also, Brooklyn for best picture? What the ****?

 

[Ipodman]

I'm really shocked that Inside Out didn't get nominated for Best Picture.
Why is it 8 nominations anyway? Shouldn't it be 10?
