I regret not promoting Peck's film in the Adapted Screenplay race (which could have used more underdogs).

I thought I had narrowly escaped seeing The Disaster Artist.

Frantz would have had a better shot at an Overlooked nomination were I not so overly wary of stacking the category with my preferred choices.

I'm shocked that Faces Places didn't get nominated for Best Documentary. I wish it were out on VOD earlier.

I was tempted to throw an Art Direction vote Brigsby Bear's way, mainly on account of those bed sheets.

Song to Song was hindered in the Overlooked Film race by the fact that Malick already had a film nominated in the category previously (To the Wonder). I'm much more interested in catching up with Song to Song, though.
