Well that eliminates Budapest. I don't think its too bad for Boyhood though, since the writing isn't why the movie is popular.

Very interested to see if Whiplash love extends to Best Adapted Screenplay. The Imitation Game seems such a dull winner for a writing award, but most sites seem to be predicting it.

Graham Moore has an annoying voice.

Graham Moore bringing the party up a notch!

In all honesty, probably the best speech of the night.

I've heard other people had the same problem. It wasn't just my theater.

Interstellar's dialogue is often mixed relatively low compared to the sound F/X and score. In the name of a certain immersion. I believe Nolan has said this himself.

No, many theaters had a problem calibrating their sound systems to adapt to Interstellar's mix. It wasn't the film's fault. When I saw it in RPX I heard every line of dialog perfectly. Your theater's sound system is just shitty.

Amazing that I have never had this problem in another film. Must be the theater.

I got Birdman right and I narrowed down adapted screenplay to Imitation Game and Whiplash and picked wrong.

I saw it twice, in a regular theater and in IMAX - I had issues hearing different parts multiple times.

I thought Birdman would get directing and Boyhood would get picture, but I don't think that looks likely at this point.
