Will we see a random nom like Bennet Miller's for Foxcatcher? Well, probably not. Right now I'm thinking: Barry Jenkins (Moonlight) Damien Chazelle (La La Land) Martin Scorsese (Silence) Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea) Ben Affleck (Live By Night) |

Dennis Villeneuve? |

He couldn't get one for the similarly well-reviewed Sicario. Not sure he'll get one for a sci-fi-flick, especially after they snubbed Ridley Scott last year or Nolan for Inception. |

Feel Pablo Larrain is in. Yes, Jackie is centered around Portman's performance, but the reviews make this more comparable to Capote and The Queen than say Theory of Everything. |

Seems like Jackie could be director friendly as well with some reviews praising the visual style and it not being a conventionally made biopic |

This is Damien Chazelle's year. |

How about Denzel? |

The difference is Arrival is actually a pretty good movie unlike Inception or The Martian. Hopefully that counts for something. |

I agree with the doc's lineup, but replace Ben Affleck with Jackie's Pablo Larraín. With Denzel in the immediate runner-up slot. |

Larraín isn't happening. But Denzel probably is. Jenkins, Chazelle, Lonergan and Scorsese all seem extremely likely. |

This is getting more and more interesting. Chazelle, Jenkins and Lonergan are in. The remaining two spots are up for grabs. I still think the Academy will nominate Scorsese for his passion project. The final spot will either go to Villeneuve or Mackenzie. |

Garth Davis has a chance to get in as well as Lion could be one of the five strongest films in Picture, plus the history of nominations for directing kids is pretty good |
