If you had the power to create a short-list of ten nominees for every category (except best picture), what would they be? Let’s make it interesting and say that the five Oscar nominees take up five of those slots, so you only get five choices to add.

I’ll start.

Best Editing (to add to shortlist):
Creed
Steve Jobs
Youth
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl
The Assassin

Best Actor:
Michael Caine, Youth
Abraham Attah, Beasts of No Nation
Andrew Garfield, 99 Homes
Michael B. Jordan, Creed
Jason Segel, The End of the Tour

etc.
