those are the usual categories star wars gets nominated for. the fact that a new hope got the best picture nom was kind of a fluke.
dunno why they gave them editing, the editing in tfa was worse than literally every other star wars movie ever made, including the holiday special and droids/ewoks.
also, ford didn't do a fucking thing worthwhile in the movie. he felt more like indiana jones than han solo.
what's shitty is that the film got a nom for best original score, but this is by far the worst star wars score and not a very good williams score. even his other scores that have basically been recycled material (tintin for example) were better than tfa's.
