OSCAR WATCH: BAFTA Nominations


Just when you thought this awards season was starting to make sense, the BAFTAs come along and throw everything into disarray again. Bright and early this morning (yes, I woke up for the announcement like a madman), the nominations for the BAFTA nominations were announced, with many frontrunners left on the outside looking in. Most notably, presumed locks Thomas McCarthy and George Miller were absent from the Best Director lineup, making way for Adam McKay to claim his first major nod of the season. Overall, it was "Carol" and "Bridge of Spies" leading the field with 9 nods apiece, but the biggest takeaway is that the Best Picture race has turned into a "Spotlight" vs "The Big Short" showdown. On Sunday we'll find out if the Golden Globes confirm this. Until then, here's the full list of BAFTA nominees:
