Contenders that either seemed not set in stone, up in the air or unlikely that you stuck your guns with so hard that nomination morning, you were justified?

Tom Hardy, The Revenant
Rooney Mara, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
Jonah Hill, The Wolf of Wall Street
Jackie for Best Original Score
“Everything is AWESOME” from The Lego Movie, Best Original Song
Whiplash for Best Picture
The Lobster for a Best Original Screenplay
Marion Cotillard, Two Days, One Night
Joaquin Phoenix, The Master
Terrence Malick, The Tree of Life for Best Director

Mine for this year are:
Holly Hunter, The Big Sick
Luca Guadagnino, Call Me By Your Name for Best Director
Armie Hammer, Call Me By Your Name
“Mystery of Love” from Call Me By Your Name, Best Original Song
I, Tonya for Best Original Screenplay
Baby Driver in both Sound Categories

Bennett Miller for Foxcatcher as well. You're probably good to go on Hunter and Baby Driver in Sound Mixing.

In the Loop for Screenplay
EDIT: How to Train Your Dragon in Original Score. I set up circles for that one.
Sally Hawkins in Blue Jasmine

And Villeneuve. I want Villeneuve in Director. That’s my one wish.
And Andy Serkis

I also had mad faith in Fury Road being the juggernaut it turned out to be.
	Good morning, Oscar Buzz. I'm listening.

It's still logic-defying that she got in but God speed.

Moonlight For Best Picture. Over LA La Land. And I'm happy.

Birdman for BP win too, plus Dragon Tattoo winning something.

im just praying that TSoW sets a record for nods (ie a shannon surprise cuz that's literally the only thing its not being predicted for a nod rn lol but not specifically bcuz of shannon) and Phantom Thread gets a fucking SLEW of nods (and I want that jay dude to rejoin just for the day of nominations if it happens)
