I'm going to do some nominations for my top four movies and will probably come back to post some individual nominations with more detail. Mad Max: Fury Road  George Miller created what many would consider to be a perfect action movie. The editing, the plot, the setting, the characters, and the art design are all perfectly executed in order to produce what are probably the best car chases in film and a grand spectacle that will be remembered and studied for years. The film that has won a few best picture contests so far and will undoubtedly go on to sweep the Golden Globes and Academy Awards. It's so good it almost got banned from these awards? Roflmao Best Picture Best Director: George Miller Best Film Editing: Margaret Sixel Best Makeup and Costuming Best Original Score: Junkie XL The Echoplex Award for Art Design The Golden Winnebago: Best Trailer The Michael Bay Award for Best Noises or Lack Thereof (Sound Design) Best Action Choreography Best Adapted Screenplay: George Miller, Brendan McCarthy, Nico Lathouris Best Visual Effects Best Cinematography: John Seale Star Wars: The Force Awakens  Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, the eleventh Star Wars movie, had a lot of expectations to meet. Thankfully, The Force Awakens ended up being a solid, entertaining release that provided plenty of space-fantasy adventure and spectacle. Of particular note is the fantastic creature and character designs that nail the Star Wars aesthetic while bringing something new to the universe. Best Makeup and Costuming The Echoplex Award for Art Design The Golden Winnebago: Best Trailer Best Visual Effects Ex Machina  Ex Machina is an original film in the science fiction genre, a pleasant surprise in a year of franchise films and sequels, that managed to impress and be one of the best films of the year. The movie relies on its three very talented performers and luckily they knock the material out of the park. The film has picked up a few nominations here and there during the awards season, but still not enough recognition in my mind. Best Picture Best Director: Alex Garland Best Actor in a Leading Role: Domhnall Gleeson Best Actor in a Supporting Role: Oscar Isaac Best Actress in a Leading Role: Alicia Vikander Best Ensemble Cast Best Original Screenplay: Alex Garland CineD MVP: Domhnall Gleeson (Ex Machina, Brooklyn, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, The Revenant) CineD MVP: Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., The Danish Girl) It Follows  I generally do not watch or even enjoy horror movies, but I found myself going to see this film based on good word of mouth and it became one of my favorite films of the year and one of my favorite horror movies ever. This movie has a novel concept and is quite gorgeous. Best Picture Best Director: David Robert Mitchell Best Original Score: Disasterpeace Best Original Screenplay: David Robert Mitchell Best Cinematography: Mike Glouakis

Sent my nominations in. I left some categories blank because I didn't see any or enough eligible films, and I only nominated from the films that I did see. I also had some trouble coming up with nominees for Best Supporting Actress, I didn't see Carol or The Danish Girl but that wouldn't have mattered if I had because those are cases of category fraud anyways. Would it be kosher to post the nominations we sent?

Vegetable posted:The list had loving Domhnall Gleeson, it wasn't a very competitive category I will not allow Domhnall Gleeson to be besmirched in this way. Though I will note that the actual Best Actor winner, Jacob Tremblay, was not on the list.
