Guild Nominations: Editors

The American Cinema Editors announced their nominations announced their nominations yesterday, and, well, the five pictures nominated in the drama category are the same five films nominated by every other group. It's really becoming redundant. Have some imagination, people! Oy. I expect four of these five making it to an Oscar nomination, and the fifth slot going to a film that wasn't nominated here at all. My guess, Iron Man. Let me just add, how the hell did Mamma Mia! get a nomination in the comedy category? It's editing was horrible. Shouldn't editors know good editing. I mean really.

The Nominees:

Drama:
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - Angus Wall & Kirk Baxter
The Dark Knight - Lee Smith
Frost/Nixon - Mike Hill & Dan Stanley
Milk - Elliot Graham
Slumdog Millionaire - Chris Dickens

Comedy:
In Bruges - Jon Gregory
Mamma Mia! - Leslie Walker
Tropic Thunder - Greg Hayden
Vicky Cristina Barcelona - Alisa Lepselter
WALL-E - Stephen Schaffer
