 You guys think Hans can surpass John Williams and Ennio Moricone ?
He surpassed Ennio in terms of Oscars but I find it hard to believe that a legend like Ennio only has 8 nods.

I think he can claim himself as 2nd best composer in the history. It's almost impossible to catch up with a god like John.
For me, other than those two, he has yet to surpass Vangelis.£

Baby Driver wins editing, Desplat wins score.

At this rate "Dunkirk" will probably be this year's "Arrival" (i.e. win Best Sound Editing and that's it)

What a freaking disappointment this award's season has been. Even more disgusting is "Shape of Water" doesn't deserve Best Score at ALL (or Best Director for that matter)

It only has picture, director and cinematography left. Which means Dunkirk will go home empty handed at the British academy awards. If you told me this six months ago I would not have believed you.

Wait it lost sound?
What beat it for sound?

EDIT: Again, politics is absolutely disgusting.
Wonder if the "not having enough minorities" complaint hurt it?

You're right, sound is also left. It just lost production design and VFX.

In theory it *should* win sound.
Still that's really disappointing it lost Editing, esp. since the BAFTAs are very good at predicting that category.
