The Online Film & Television Association celebrated its twenty years with its awards for 2015. Introducing the ranked Best Picture list and runners-up, the organization continues to show it isn’t interested in just predicting the Oscars. Mad Max: Fury Road, which isn’t on anyone’s radar as being a Best Picture frontrunner dominated these awards with 9 wins including Best Picture and Best Director. The acting categories were split between currently-projected Oscar winners and those who aren’t being predicted: Leonardo DiCaprio and Brie Larson versus Tom Hardy and Jennifer Jason Leigh. That isn’t to say their awards couldn’t become prophetic, but it seems unlikely.
