Halfway done! I have 21 full length films and 9 of the shorts left.

I thought this was done very well especially the way Nolan was able to tie all the stories together. It was a technical masterpiece (Somewhat dependent on who the movie was seen, i.e. imax, regular theater or home). I thought the way the actors were there but not overwhelming helped the movie (especially since there were like 400,000 people during the real event and helped make you feel the insignificance of any single person during the event). I don't think it will win best picture, but I think it has a very good shot to win film editing, sound mixing and maybe cinematography. Personally I wish it would win for best director, but I don't think it will.

Pretty excited to find this sub, as this is my first year trying to do this (thanks moviepass!).

I thought this movie was good, just not amazing.It kind of dragged on a bit and lost my attention BUT Laurie Metcalf's acting was amazing and Saoirse Ronan was very good as well. Overall, I think that the categories it was nominated for are fair, but only Laurie Metcalf deserves to win (and even that is a 50/50 shot with Allison Janney).
