Here are my predictions:
Timbuktu
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Revenant
Sicario
Carol
1. The Revenant
2. Sicario
3. MAd MAx: Fury Road
4. The Hateful Eight
5. Bridge of Spies
6. In the Heart of the Sea
7. Carol
8.The Danish Girl
9. Son of Saul
10. Beasts of No Nation
11. The Assassin
12. MacBeth
13. Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens
14. The Martian
15. By the sea
16. Straight Outta Compton
17. Brooklyn
18. Spectre
19. Joy
20. Goodnight Mommy
Easily The Revenant (Chivo is a master), Sicario, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Hateful Eight, don’t know about the fifth though (definitely not Carol – totally overrated), likely The Assassin (which is the only saving grace about the film supposedly).
