With the first guild tech prize out of the box, it looks like the leaders are every bit as expected. Mad Max was an unsurprising victor in Best Drama Editing, while fellow Oscar Best Picture nominee The Big Short won in comedy. The leaders of the Best Animated Feature and Best Documentary Feature competition won their respective prizes as well. The Big Short seemed like an obvious choice, but had it lost to any other film, the press might have been bad enough to cut into its perception as the Oscar frontrunner. Meanwhile, a clean sweep of the tech guilds by Mad Max could give it a boost going into Oscar season, though a Best Picture win is still a long shot at this point.
