Bear assault not a best scene contender in your eyes? 

 

I put the Bear as Best Supporting Actress.

[4815162342]

Room finally comes to my local theater this weekend. Definitely gonna see that.

 

Other than that, may be able to watch a film or two via Netflix.

[Jake Gittes]

I would have nominated the bear for something if she had actually killed Di Caprio. Goddammit, bear, YOU HAD ONE JOB

[Goffe]

I still have a couple movies to see, so I probably won't send my ballot until right before the deadline. 

 

Spotlight, Room, Macbeth, The Hateful Eight and Sisters I won't have the opportunity to see them before the deadline.

[CoolioD1]

worked out a ballot. may add or remove stuff if big short blows my dick off but this is what it looks like rn

God, after last year, that's such a boring, mainstream ballot from you.

[TalismanRing]

I'm filling out my Boffys and have realized I'm falling into Oscar voting traps voting for films and performances that are more Oscar kind of work than the ones I actually enjoyed more and yet I still can't stop myself.  Must try harder.

I know it's a disgrace but I've been a busier man this year w/ less time for the smaller pictures. if u gave me until next january I'm sure I'd have a much cooler ballot. 

[CoolioD1]

btw saw the big short it's good but it won't factor into my ballot anywhere so you can take that as is. do i need to send it as well or can u just use that? @Spaghetti

[Ezen Baklattan]

I'll just PM it to you.

[chasmmi]

Theoretically the plan was to have seen the following before the deadline and make a decision:

 

Big Short

Goosebumps

Carol

Spotlight

The Walk

Unfriended

Black Mass

Sicario

Room

Brooklyn

Goodnight Mommy

Southpaw

Paper Towns

Crimson Peak

American Ultra

Self/Less

The Intern

 

As it stands, it is unlikely I watch 17 films in 4 days for a variety of reasons. Will just PM a list as close to the deadline as I can get away with.
