    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.
