ooooops

missing jupiter ascending and cinderella? liking both those more than for nominee...

Star Wars.

Wait, Alexandre Despalt is out. I can't believe that.

I can. He won last year. Over Interstellar. He doesn't need one a second year in a row.

Sicario .

Carol's soundtrack was really beautiful...

Every year I hoped that somehow James Newton Howard would get a nomination for one of his Hunger Games scores, but no luck as the last one missed out again. Realistically I knew it was never going to happen but deep down I still hoped.
Extremely pleased with John Williams being nominated for The Force Awakens though; it's the one nomination I really hoped for (realistically speaking!) and would have been pained by it being excluded.
