Anyone else feel Star Wars' nom here is more of an in-joke (the first movie was famously saved in the edit)? Another case of "it'd be nice to see it win", although I'm highly doubtful J.J. Abrams' restart will get anything. Editing's one of those categories that can often throw out a wild-card, or otherwise surprise you (I was ecstatically shocked when Whiplash won it last year), but based on what's here, the best bet is Mad Max - that action, man. So fluid.
