SOUND EDITING Nominees

Will win: Gravity
should win: All is Lost (does the most with the least I think) because Gravity has other places to win
CAPTAIN PHILLIPS GRAVITY THE HOBBIT 2 ALL IS LOST LONE SURVIVOR
         
Egregious Omission? I really think WORLD WAR Z should've been here. Gets as much mileage from its sound as All is Lost or Gravity do.
