Clara Movie Awards Choices Movies of 2016 All Fantasy Again

Clara Awards are separated into appropriate category based on genre!

If we didn't see it by January 1, it is not nominated! The only exception is that Marx Cards might have recommended it. Exceptions and additions could still be added in the 'drama' category as runners up.

The Nominees are:
Best Drama
Edge of Seventeen
Snowden
Sully
Deepwater Horizon
If the Oscars can pick three movies I've never even heard of, and cannot go see because they're not even playing, I can pick Edge of Seventeen. It best personifies this insane year.

Best Comedy
Keanu
Hail Ceaser!
Sausage Party
Deadpool
Barbershop The Next Cut
Although originally a fan idea, the movie becomes the most original comedy and super hero farce of the year, possibly of all time.

Best Horror Thriller
10 Cloverfield Lane
Blair Witch 3
Midnight Special
This movie was really, really nuts. The ending can be forgiven.

Best Fantasy
Star Trek Beyond
Rogue One a Star Wars Story
Midnight Special
The Jungle Book
Pete's Dragon
Star Trek will forever be first love, and there is almost a tie in Star Wars, so there was no chance with a Star Trek movie out this year that the other would win. Oscar will ignore it. I will not.

Best Action
Deadpool
Captain America Civil War
Doctor Strange
Hardcore Henry
Doctor Strange just has unparalleled special effects and needs to be mentioned at Oscar time. If not, they will lose the white bread fan boy audience.

Best Animated
Zootopia
Finding Dory
Moana
Secret Life of Pets
Kung Fu Panda 3
Kubo and the Two Strings
Best Picture of the Year is best Animated Picture of the year also, Zootopia, Disney's love letter to the Disney Afternoon, and to the Furries. It is perfection. It so personifies 2016.

Honorable Mentions
The Witch
13 Hours
Magnificent 7
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Out of the Shell
Magnificent 7 was not magnificent, but it was an honorable technical marvel.

The Trailer Lied
Suicide Squad
Batman v Superman
Rogue One
Although Rogue One did have scenes that were cut, Suicide Squad has whole character arcs cut! The hints of them were in that trailer.

Turd of the Year
Max Steel
We forgot about Jem, but who remembers that? Max Steel gets the brown poo. 

Best Visual Effects
Doctor Strange (the enfolding cities)
Rogue One (the beachhead battle, CGI people)
Star Trek Beyond (the Potempkin station)
Kubo and the Two Strings (that paper was stop motion)
Doctor Strange also walks away with visual awards, even though it was tough with Kubo and Beyond.
