For some reason I doubt HP won’t get squat, especially in the FX categories.
Clayton, are you seriously trying to tell me that a film having a BFCA rating of 93 (HP) will not get nominated for a single award? I’m not expecting an Oscar Best Pic nomination, but your own organization gave the film a rating of 93. And now according to you, it’s not going to get even a single nomination? In that case, I have to ask you: Did you even rate the film properly? And if yes, then please justify the “93-rating-and-zero-nominations” scenario. I don’t understand this.
Also just from a ratings stand point. These awards are televised. It would be suicide not to nominate it.
I’m expecting it to get nominated in most of the technical categories, that would be about 6 or 7 nominations, and if the BFCA is generous enough, an Acting Ensemble nomination as well.
