Are u going to update the rest of the categories?
I’m working on it. I had a catalog of potential 2016 contenders and details about them that I spent hours on, it unfortunately got deleted. That’s life. Expect the remaining categories in the next few days.
I think that it will at least get one for the score and the production design, might not win as per usual but I think it could be competition
It’s very possible. Right now there are so many potentially good films out there that edge it out, but the field will narrow more and more as time goes on.
Have some of my comments been deleted?
I see them. However, since this is a page and not a post. Comments get deleted each year. But yeah, I still have all yours showing.
This website is the only award website which still hasn’t recognised Fantastic beasts and where to find them. Every website predicts at least 2-3 except in here it is not considered? thoughts?
