 Re: Best performances of 2016 so far
But that was directed at a different person entirely. You seem to be working under the assumption that everyone must be consistent all of the time. That ain't the case.

 Re: Best performances of 2016 so far
Gadot is a good actress, not someone who I'd say should generally be winning awards for it, but there's just been a seriously lack of better for me this year so far. I'll probably see a decent amount 2016 films in the next 8 weeks or so, but right now I think she deserves a nomination. Bennett would win of the ones on my list right now.
Palmer was a true highlight in Hacksaw Ridge and I thoroughly enjoyed ST Beyond and Boutella was just great in it.

Yeah, if it's me he has a "problem" (  ).
