Bold Prediction: Mad Max, Inside Out, and Star Wars win all of the things. Creed and the Martian also win alot of the things. 

[CoolioD1]

b4 anyone votes for best villain watch While We're Young and see the real Adam Driver performance that's pure evil.

[Kalo]

Do we have to fill our prediction lists, like for BP you have 10 slots, must we list 10? and do we need to list them in order?

[Ezen Baklattan]

You need 10, but they shouldn't be in order.

[Kalo]

Alrighty, made an early list, time to start binge watching 2015 films, in between showings of TFA of course.

[Blankments]

DAISY RIDLEY FOR EVERYTHINGGGG

[Blankments]

Also, can we have clarification at the beginning on if we need to rank any categories  

[Blankments]

Also no Doc, Horror, or Foreign cats?

I feel like these categories didn't add an awful lot last year, so we're forsaking them. Plus, most of us haven't seen a lot of the docs and foreign films.
