@4815162342 and @Bastien: It's down to you two!

Now that nearly every vote has been counted, I'll reveal a few clues:

 

Spoiler

• 8 spots are left to be filled. With 13 extra categories, most of the nominations you have seen above will be nominated. But which ones?
• One category is pretty much decided, regardless of how Bastien votes.
• Another is WAY too close. Each option is separated by exactly one vote. 
• 5 votes separate first and last in one category, versus a whopping 13 votes in another.
• In the event that Bastien's vote creates a tie, I will choose randomly which one advances. To avoid bias, in the event that a tie contains one of my own films, I will choose the other film.
