I cheated with Rickman. He wins for every delicious little bit of his performances over all 8 films and for not giving him a win for “Sense and Sensibility” for good measure. He was good enough in this last installment to win anyway. When I first made these lists I didn’t have Chris O’Dowd in. I just re-watched “Bridesmaids” and couldn’t resist his charms so I booted Ben Kingsley from “Hugo”, just over Mortensen. All the other “Bridesmaids” mentions were there before the re-watch.Picture: “Midnight In Paris”, “Bridesmaids”, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2”, “Hugo”, “Weekend”

Admittedly, I cheated a little bit giving it to The Trip, because it is originally a TV series, but it is too good. Steve Coogan is absurdly underrated (though admittedly I didn’t like Alan Partridge that much). Rickman was my third place; almost my runner-up. As other people have said already, Supporting Actor was a great category.

Yay to the inclusion of Redgrave and Fiennes! I must re-watch Bridesmaids…I didn’t love it the first time except for Melissa McCarthy. A great choice there! She is always amazing.

Great choice, dude. He’s a great actor and he was amazing in that film. It’s a real shame they snubbed him.

Fiennes for Harry Potter is a nice addition as well. Julie Walters too! My favorite little but still huge moment in the whole thing is when she calls Bonham Carter a bitch, reminding me of Sigourney Weaver in Aliens! That and when Smith starts wielding her wand at Rickman like a warrior.

Michael Shannon is always great. Several times when creating these lists I left him off, wishing I had more room.

I love seeing all the mentions of “Margaret” & “Weekend”. Cullen & Fassbender were super close for me including them.

Thanks! I love that moment, too! (Well, both of them, but especially Walters.)
