 Re: Best Director 2014
I think Nolan, Linklater, Iñárritu and Tyldum seem very very likely right now. The fifth spot is up for grabs between Miller, Jolie, Eastwood, Fincher and Burton.

 Re: Best Director 2014
I'm beginning to think this category will have an oddball nomination, a la Benh Zeitlin.

 Re: Best Director 2014
I can't imagine a third BP/BD-split in a row. If Linklater wins, Boyhood will also win.

 Re: Best Director 2014
Wait, where the hell did Clint Eastwood come from here?! I thought Algren was thinking he would get in for Jersey Boys. I had no idea he was directing American Sniper.
Wow, I'm seriously shocked. The man is in his 80s. Slow down, Clint.

 Re: Best Director 2014
A really competitive category. Linklater, Iñárritu, and Tyldum look to be locks (although there is really no lock in this category after what happened a couple of years ago), and Duvernay looks very strong given her film's reviews, then you still have Fincher/Jolie/Eastwood. Think Nolan is pretty much certain to not getting nominated though.

 Re: Best Director 2014
I don't know if Tyldum is such a lock. He is not overdue, it's a relative newcomer and has done mostly TV work. I did like Headhunters, but as you said, if Affleck and Bigelow didn't get nominated a couple of years ago, who knows what will happen.
Right now I see Linklater, Iñarritu and Duvernay in. Tyldum almost there and Fincher, Eastwood, Marsh and the big unknown, Jolie, fighting for the last spot.
