But isn't the category about box-office? You had a high-profile Oscar hopeful with a ton of talent involved, and it grossed less than 2m total. 

 

 

I just think after the less than stellar reviews came out, everyone stopped caring about it, and when it actually came time to vote for most disappointing run there weren't enough people who cared to remember or even consider voting it for it. It happens!

Better one: Emilia Clarke in Me Before You in Best Actress. Prepare thyself.

 

 

tbh fuck that movie.  Probably the 3rd worst of the year.

She looks like my high school English teacher.

I'd like some well-reasoned arguments for why rogue one's cinematography is bad. epic when it wants to be and some of the best use of handheld in a blockbuster ever. didn't vote for it but c'mon guys. 

 

NEON DEMON WAS BEST OF THE YEAR THOUGH.

[Goffe]

fucking travesty Neon Demon didn't get best cinematography

warcraft was really the most soul crushing movie i saw at the pictures last year. in the opening five minutes there was that sense of dread that washed over me when i realize i'm in for total garbage. total zone out from me around the 40 minute mark. randomly snapped back into it when GLENN CLOSE showed up for no reason other than i guess albert nobbs wasn't bad enough. dominic cooper always acts like he's in the school play. dude sucks.

 I totally don't remember Glenn Close at all.

Clearly everyone who saw Silence is on BOT.

[BadAtGender]

Mag7 should have gotten a cinematography nod. Even if it didn't get anything else exactly right, it nailed those American vistas just like a classic western.

I didn't have any problem with Rogue One's cinematography, but it also was far from the best. It's just pretty casual (how many more times will I use this tonight?)

[CoolioD1]

snubbed the best work of the year guys

 

[That One Girl]

No Swiss Army Man or Lobster for score, rip.

[4815162342]

Arrival gets nominated on the basis of Max Richter.

 

Never saw/listened to Kubo so can't judge.

 

Jungle Book's music was nice,

Glenn Close is who you hire if you want to get Meryl Streep but realize she's never going to do your blockbuster effects porn.

it's 'casual' because it's popular(?!?!?!?!) and he doesn't like it i guess.
