Visual Category Madness... and Guild Nominees for Makeup/VES
This just in. Here's a quick Oscar chart update on all the Visual categories... (You can see the index of Oscar Predictions here - we're almost finished -- but of course everything gets taken down and rebuilt tomorrow - whew). I have worked through the sadness as I removed predictions for Carol in no brainer should be easy get categories like Production Design (seriously sometimes Hollywood make-a-me-crazy). The one I left in that I'm very worried about is Cinematography. It's one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. Watch them replace it with something basic like The Hateful Eight or The Martian (sigh).
MEANWHILE... The Makeup and Hairstylists Guilds and the The Visual Effects Society, which have much larger voting bodies than their correlatives within the Academy released their nominations so we'll share those after the jump if you're interested with a few comments on each...

I was worried there for a second but The Big Short did not get a "best hairstyling nomination" Fun to see something light and fluffy like Pitch Perfect 2 and Spy in here because light and fluffy films sometimes have skilled craftsmen on them, you know?

I call shenanigans. Drom the very beginning of American Horror Story's run it's been gaming categories at awards show. How is it eligible for both its commercials and the show itself? I mean come on now. Play fair.

I honestly don't know what these are. They aren't Broadway things. Are they touring companies and if so how do they decide which tours of the dozens of variations for various shows?

Interesting that San Andreas and Furious 7 made their nominee lineup here since neither made the finals for the visual fx oscar. There are only ten films remaining that the Academy can choose from tomorrow morning for the 5 visual fx nominations which are Ant-Man, Age of Ultron, Ex Machina, Jurassic World, Mad Max, Martian, Revenant, Star Wars, Tomorrowland and The Walk.

Everyone's favorite supporting actress "Judy" from the Revenant is nominated here. Wouldn't it be weird if that single scene netted the film an Oscar nomination? I suppose it's possible given how crazy some are for that movie. And that scene is startlingly convincing all told.

Carol deserves this and the Make-up Oscar for Cate's manicures alone.
how did simone's post-coital boob-obscuring farrah hair and mike milligans's tight afro on fargo miss the tv miniseries period hairstyling category??
I'm predicting THE REVENANT for visual effects for the HEREAFTER effect of one scene superbly done. Of course, there's also the bison heard, which I assume was CGI, the horse-over-the-cliff scene had to have had some in there, too.
