There was just like one guy laughing at the trailer when I saw it in front of The Revenant with a pretty full crowd. Everyone else seemed annoyed/uncomfortable.
McCarthy has grown on me. Always found her overrated, but loved her in Spy and even found myself laughing in The Boss trailers. Not sure what happened, but looks like I may officially be on the McCarthy hype train now.
Remember when that one filmmaker of that one superhero movie wanted us to believe Maggie Gyllenhaal was beautiful and even put a line in the script to try to convince people?
If you're asking preference, J Law easy. She's not breaking any new ground with the performance, but I can't bear just the idea of sitting through the nausea of the smarmy word vomit that will no doubt by Schumer's acceptance speech.

For a grand total of 58. Granted we won't have that of course, but it is insane we even have that many with long shot potential, and that is before counting any little indie or Oscar breakout no one can predict. We could definitely hit 40+ this year.
The Walk may not have as much special effects as the others, but what is there basically blow all the others away. Should for sure be getting nominated, but again can see it snubbed for The Revenant. Unless JW doesn't make it.
Between Room, Brooklyn, SOC, Sicario, and TFA all strongly vying for those last few spots Inside Out's chances to sneak in are way too far gone even with 10 noms. Hell, even with 12 noms.
