Is anybody going to be happy when the Oscar nominations are revealed on Thursday and all of us self-declared award divas will no longer have to pay attention to any of the precursors? Seriously, I never thought I could get sick of awards seasons but oh my God!
Listen, I love foreplay but sometimes, you just need have to get to the point.
ANYWAY, here are the Cinema Audio Society nominees for the best achievements in sound mixing in 2014. Before anyone dismiss the importance of these nominees, consider that correctly guessing the nominees for the Academy Award for Best Sound Mixing could make the difference in your Oscar pool.
Or, it might not.
(By the way, Arleigh, when I’m tempted to fanatically follow next year’s awards season, remind me of this post. It might make all the difference!)
Anyway, here are the film nominees!
