I'm getting quite upset learning how bizarre are the nominees in the two guilds that announced today as not only seems guilds will not agree with critics (nothing new here, still had to comment) but now the Producers also snubbed Carol. Inexplicable a s film is one of the best this year for the outstanding cinematography, actors performances, the director and amazing tech specs. Are the guilds reacting to the story? I do not know, but it's a big omission in this list.Yes, for the past eight years, the Producers Guild's choice for Best Picture went on to claim the top prize at the Oscars so Mad Max: Fury Road, Brooklyn and Straight Outta Compton received much needed boost while Carol, Room and The Hateful Eight were snubbed and if we believe stats then also probably their chances for winning Oscars top honor has diminished to nilch. Still I wish that Guilds and the Academy members behave different and next week we will learn if my wish will or will not be reality.
