Best Scene: The Commandant prepares the men to attack.
9. Stanley Tucci in Spotlight - Tucci, much like the majority of the cast of spotlight, gives a realistic portrayal of a man in the film's story, and only stands when it aids this story.
Best Scene: "You don't know the half of it"
8. Adam Driver in Star Wars: The Force Awakens - Driver creates a most unusual yet still very effective and complex villain
Best Scene: Kylo and Han.
7. Emory Cohen in Brooklyn - Cohen gives an extremely charming performance that is essential the film's success, as he flawlessly avoids the various potential pitfalls of his technically simplistic character.
Best Scene: Tony and Ellis the night after the dinner with Tony's family.
6. Michael Sheen in Far From the Madding Crowd - Sheen gives a very moving performance in his portrayal of a man whose emotions reveal themselves, for better or worse, after being shown a hint of love.
Best Scene: Boldwood joins Bathsheba in song.
5. Benicio Del Toro in Sicario - Del Toro is appropriately chilling in his depiction of a cold killer, yet is particularly compelling in revealing the man behind the actions.
Best Scene: A family dinner.
4. Oscar Isaac in Ex Machina - Isaac is wildly entertaining yet also appropriately enigmatic as his odd tech genius who he plays as though he's a real BRO at heart.
Best Scene: "Have you tried dancing with her?"
3. Walton Goggins in The Hateful Eight - Goggins gives quite the impressive performance, as he's hilarious, incisive, and somehow makes a friendship between a racist Sheriff and a black bounty hunter believable.
Best Scene: Reading the Lincoln Letter.
2. Richard Jenkins in Bone Tomahawk - Jenkins is completely unrecognizable in his funny yet heartbreaking portrayal of a real old timer of the old west.
Best Scene: The flea circus.
1. Nicholas Hoult in Mad Max: Fury Road - Good prediction Psifonian. This year is simply amazing, and having to choose between them is absurdly difficult. I could go so many different ways for my winner, since I love all these performances. I could go with any performance in my top 12 and they'd be deserving. My top two came down to the two performances that I've found myself quoting the most incidentally. I could easily switch at any time. Hoult is outstanding in his compelling and entertaining portrayal of zealotry, then is quite heartbreaking in his depiction of a loss of this blindness.
Best Scene: A promised trip to Valhalla.

Louis: Can I have your ratings and thoughts on McCarthy, Byrne and Statham in Spy.
I didn't expect to see Anthony Bourdain in the lineup:)
Louis: Does your 4s end with Sean Harris in Macbeth.

I was really hoping for Hoult, but Hardy's a great choice too.
1. Segel
2. Tremblay
3. Hardy
For what it's worth, my honorable mentions are Fassbender, Depp and Russell.
Once again, because Bateman and Mendelsohn are requests and you gave your thoughts and rating on Reynolds:
1. Jordan
2. Courtenay
3. Segel
Alternates include the Love and Mercy duo and the Compton 3.
Louis: For your Nominations page, Michael Sheen has 2.
2009 Lead Actor: The Damned United - #8
2015 Supporting Actor: Far From The Madding Crowd - #10
Hoult is my favorite, but I am happy Hardy has a win.

Kinda wished Hoult won but Hardy is a great choice.
Surprisingly pleased to see Stallone at #3 :D
Also Sturridge is way too high ;)
"Anthony Bourdain in The Big Short". Ha, that's awesome.
1.Tremblay
2.McKellen
3.Depp
As for my predictions for the winners, pretty certain Hardy, Fassbender and Dicaprio are making the top 5. Remaining 2 places could be any of McKellen, Segel, Courtenay, or Tremble.
*Tremblay
Or even Bateman, Mendhelson.
I have this man at the top of my interests simply because I have no idea whether you liked him or not, plus I think Black Mass was a one off and Depp will go back to the current Depp as opposed to the old one so expect Depp to stay on 3 Oscar noms for the time being.
1. Johnny Depp
2. Tom Hardy
3. Ian McKellen
I would certainly be very interested to see a Depp review. I remember Louis saying he was saving Damon and Depp not only because they could be nominated, and wonder if Depp's gone up or down, like Damon, in his books.
1. Michael Caine in Youth (5/5)
2. Ian McKellen in Mr. Holmes
3. Jason Micthell in Straight Outta Compton (4/5)
Where is Michael Shannon placed?He gave one of the best performances of the year
1. Jordan
2. Fassbender
3. Tremblay
Louis: I'm changing my preferences, as my hopes for Attah are futile.

Louis: Can I have your ratings and thoughts for each performance that didn't make the lineup.
Louis: I know you already gave me your thoughts for Heston in Apes and Soylent Green and McQueen and Robinson in The Cincinnati Kid, but you forgot the ratings. What are your ratings for these four performances?
Luke:
McCarthy - 3.5(Her performance went a bit like the film's as a whole for me in that I really liked it for the first hour or so, but then it just kind of ran out of gas, mostly I think because the action itself wasn't done in a particularly funny way. McCarthy I found enjoyable in being just sort of friendly while being a master spy. I found her fake tough act less amusing I must admit, though I still liked her just fine)
Byrne - 3(I suppose I'll commit slight blasphemy in that I did not love this performance I liked it just fine, but I guess I never found her spoiled brat routine THAT funny.)
Statham - 4(Very funny since he plays it so straight as though his hapless "hero" is indeed the usual Statham badass. I could listen to him list of his various awesome achieves all day. Every line of his was made pure gold by Statham's appropriately extreme delivery)
Anonymous:
4 for Robinson. 3 for the rest.
1. Depp
2. Foster
3. Tremblay
DEPP IN BLACK MASS!
Louis: Although he was never considered for the role, do you think that Massey would work as Father Mapple?
I think he would have worked well in that part.
I'm really interested about the possible lineup.
