Countdown to Oscar Night: Best Film Editing

Photobucket

Nominees:
Argo
Life of Pi
Lincoln
Silver Linings Playbook
Zero Dark Thirty

History shows that this category has been the "technical" category pretty much reserved for the Best Pic front runners.  Argo and Lincoln really set themselves apart in my opinion for taking stories that could easily become mundane and creating tight, ultra-entertaining masterpieces.  I know the picture above doesn't really show "editing".  I just feel that anything I can do to bring attention to the greatness of Ben Affleck's direction is much deserved to make up for one of the worst snubs in recent Oscar history.

My Ballot:
Argo
Lincoln
Silver Linings Playbook
Life of Pi
Zero Dark Thirty

My Pick:
Argo

Shoulda Been Here:
Beasts of the Southern Wild
