Here goes:

1. Alejandro G. Iñárritu – The Revenant

2. Ridley Scott –The Martian

3. George Miller – Mad Max: Fury Road

4. Steven Spielberg – Bridge of Spies

5. Denis Villeneuve – Sicario

This one could turn out many different ways. McCarthy, McKay and Haynes could all be in there.
If Danny Boyle found his way onto the list I would be pretty happy, as unlikely as it may be.

That's where the problem lies. I care too much about these pointless awards and so when
extraordinary work isn't being recognized appose to mediocre work I get annoyed.

Betting Todd Haynes gets a directing nod from the Academy instead of McKay.
