I don't think there's a chance any of these get nominated, but if it happens, I'll throw a parade:

1. Gillian Jacobs, Don't Think Twice- Best Actress
2. Hunt For The Wilderpeople- Best Foreign Film
3. 10 Cloverfield Lane- Best Original Screenplay
4. Anya Taylor-Joy, The Witch- Best Supporting Actress
5. "I'm So Humble" from Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping- Best Original Song

2. Hunt For The Wilderpeople- Best Foreign Film
The actual category is Best Foreign Language Film. Plus it didn't make the shortlist of finalists.


3. 10 Cloverfield Lane- Best Original Screenplay
What about John Goodman for Best Supporting Actor?

I imagine Sing Street will get no nominations, so basically five categories it should be nominated in (take your pick Picture, Director, Song, Screenplay, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress).

Hail, Caesar! because it opened so early in the year.

Why, though? It's more or less a subpar episode of FAMILY GUY.

You must have a very excellent opinion of family Guy. Deadpool's script is phenomenal.

Can't believe I forgot to list...

Best Song - "Try Everything" by Shakira from Zootopia


This should be an obvious nominee, but "Cant Fight This Feeling" by Justin Timberlake from Trolls seems more likely.
