Best Sound Mixing
Arrival
La La Land
Hacksaw Ridge
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

Screw this category.....  It should be one of my favorites because it is the category that awards mixing the live recorded sounds during filming. This is THE category of music-centered movies as past winners include Dreamgirls, Whiplash, Slumdog Millionaire, and Les Miserables. My problem centers around the nominators silly love of one Michael Benjamin Bay.... I have suffered through two Transformers movies and now 13 Hours because of this category....  Still, it should be a slam-dunk win for La La Land if just for the scene above. If you've seen the movie, you know what I mean. If you haven't, go see it... tonight...  Happy Valentines!

My Ballot:
La La Land
Arrival
Hacksaw Ridge
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

My Pick to Win:
La La Land

Shamefully Snubbed:
Sing Street
