28 days...6 hours...42 minutes...12 seconds
Casey Affleck - Manchester By The Sea



The most dominated category by far. Affleck was in the lead from the start and no one came close to matching his votes. How wide of a margin? Affleck received 21 votes. Second place received 4 votes.



Affleck. Of course. That is one of the greatest performances of the last 20 years to say the least.

Actors and actresses, especially the Oscar baitey types, often act merely on the outside. Rarely do we see a performance these days - and in a major popular film - hold such an inner, subtle personal performance. So fragile and humane. Affleck speaks with his body language throughout almost all of the film. Sometimes it's just one second of a look from the eyes. Other times it's a flinch. And sometimes it's merely the way the line is delivered.



You can't win an argument just by being right!

Wow. I better see it then.



I think I voted for BvS... It was so awful. Suicide Squad is pretty much equally awful if not more, but BvS just dropped the ball harder in my opinion. At least that one left me most angry and with a worse taste in my mouth.

La La Land



Manchester By The Sea




Yes, another tie. Both of these films received 10 votes each. It was a close race the entire time with Manchester By The Sea taking an early lead. La La Land was able to claw its way back and both tied. Arrival wasn't too far behind with 7 votes and Silence right behind it with 6. Surprise nomination The Nice Guys received 1 vote.
