Well I was hoping that maybe just maybe American Sniper would win, even though the odds were against them

Same here. Clint Eastwood did a great job directing "American Sniper", too... just despicable that he wasn't even nominated.

As I have said in another posting, with “AS”, and with the criminal trial going on right now in TX, I also think the Oscars did not want to influnce the jury outcome.

But yes, not suprised that Clint Eastwood did not get the BD honors.
