The lack of nominations for The Imitation Game is depressing. Cumberbatch and Knightley should have been nominated.

I’m bummed Knightley missed too, but if her sacrifice means Stewart’s placement, we made the right decision. Yeah, but I still think Knightley was better than at least four of the nominees: Arquette, Watts, Stone and Coon. The latter's nomination is especially puzzling to me. I loved Gone Girl, but did not even consider nominating her.

I just realized that Javier Braier got in. I did put him as my #1, but I thought he had missed (I just rewatched Wild Tales and was about to tell you all that you screwed up in snubbing him). I am so happy right now.

Her interactions with Affleck were really nice and it gave the film more emotional weight.

Choreography - There's The Raid 2 and then there's everything else. Hope it wins. It frickin' better.

Ensemble - Whoa, Guardians? Interesting... Kind of scraping the bottom of the barrel, ain't we? I say this as a fan of the movie, too, but there were better casts if you ask me. Chipping in to disagree. This is my favorite ensemble of the decade so far. Interesting. Again, I like the cast, they all worked well together, but I also base my choice in ensembles not just on the chemistry of the cast, but on the strength of the performances as well. To me, Saldana was just kind of there, Pace, Gillan, and Diesel all had nothing to do, so it's pretty much the Pratt, Bautista, and Cooper show. Which is nice, but when Birdman is released the same year where everyone gets equal opportunity to show off something AND there's that chemistry, that's what gets my win. But of course, this is just my personal opinion, obviously don't expect your mind to be changed lol. Just thought I'd back up my thoughts.

What you can't vote for The Leftovers so you vote for this. What did she do in Gone Girl? nothing. I asume some people live by the famous slogan Pay it Forward, so many options and..... that??

I'm surprised (not in a good way) by the Nightcrawler love. Also how did Cumberbatch and Redmayne missed the list?
