I kind of like this group, even if their bias towards anything Boston-set (or Massachusetts-set) is always apparent. Figured they'd go with Spotlight.

Especially considering that hers is the kind of role that particularly actors will understand and feel close to (those who have seen the movie know what I mean).

Charlotte Rampling is a surprise, probably to the guy doing the tweets as well as he neglected to post her win or maybe he's waiting for the recount on Alicia Vikander. Paul Dano's win is another poke in the eye of the film publicists as yet another Best Actor award goes to an actor being campaigned in support.

With Kristen Stewart continuing to pick up Best Supporting Actress awards I think we have to count her as a serious contender.
