I find this year's nominations VERY surprising.

At no point did I feel much passion for Spotlight here on the boards and it grabbed Editing AND Picture noms, despite none of the actors being nominated.

It Follows has a VERY passionate fanbase. I think, almost everyone who actually saw it, voted it in many categories. I firmly believe that had enough people seen it, it would have made it into Best Editing, Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture as well.

On the other hand, there was a distinct lack of passion for The Martian and The Revenant. Neither really was in contention for BP. Both appeared on many ballots, but usually ranked quite low. At least 15 films got more points for Best Picture than The Revenant, including Kingsman: The Secret Service and Carol.

Room was the exact opposite and kinda similar to It Follows. Lots of passion from those who have seen it. I guess that kinda explains its Oscar nom for Best Picture.

pretty bad for The Revenant, even though we're very different voting body than Oscars I feel like now we can safely eliminate it from BP win contention.

We really spread the wealth this time.

Only six for The Revenant is pretty bad actually. Who knows, maybe it will come out empty-handed.

Great job again Lecter!

And despite surprises in some individual categories, we again ended up not being that different from critics consensus for BP. The six nominees ended up No. 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, and 11th on http://criticstop10.com/. It shows when you get to over 30 votes, regardless how loud the individual voices may be, the nominees do converge.

Never bet against the laws of Statistics and normal distribution. :)

In fact, having more insight, I can tell that 12 (!) out of WOKJ's Top 13 picks for Best Picture are in that website's Top 14 films. The Hateful Right is the only outlier at #26.

The one film (and everything about it), that WOKJ really didn't embrace was Brooklyn.

I have a feeling Mad Max is going to beat Inside Out. But I will go Inside Out all the way on my ballot.
