With nine wins, Mad Max: Fury Road was the biggest winner of the night (which will cheer Watcher Rhys up no end), including Best Director. No surprises seeing DiCaprio and Larson take the lead acting honours. Spotlight taking Best Picture is also interesting, as a lot of early prognostication pointed to a sweep for The Revenant. 

After a very busy week last week (and thanks for your patience if you're not a fan of the awards season stuff), things get a bit quiet now - the next awards season post will be after the Producers' Guild Awards on January 23rd, with the SAG Awards a week later on January 30th.
