Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP surprise. I probably wouldn't be "surprised" at an Unbroken or AMVY nomination.
So, Interstellar or Into the Woods.

So, Interstellar or Into the Woods. Unbroken's chances are not better than Interstellar or Into the Woods. It only would have been more likely had it become a leggy audience favorite at the box office, but that didn't pan out. A Most Violent Year does not seem to be on many prediction lists for the nominations, but I do suppose it is the best film here. Plus, you can only pick one, and you basically picked four.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom Out of those either Unbroken or A Most Violent Year. Gonna go with the former.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom Interstellar has been labelled with disappointment since it was released (unfortunately). Mr Turner and A Most Violent Year seem to lack the passion despite good reviews. Into the Woods seems too...Disney? Wild's buzz has been centered on Reese's performance, and absolutely nothing else. Inherent Vice is too divisive. So I'm gonna go with Unbroken. Despite its mixed reviews, the whole thing is so Oscar-baity, I could definitely see a good portion of voters being completely taken by it. It could possibly pull an Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom Unbroken. A War Horse-type nomination.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom Unbroken, though I'm really hoping for a nomination for A Most Violent Year.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom Of these? Wild. But if you wanted to go with truly unlikely movies Under The Skin  . That would be so damn cool.

Re: Unlikely Movie with best chance at a BP nom I always kind of figured Wild would be nominated, like The Blind Side.
