96th Annual Academy Awards nominations thread

Barbie was absolutely a frontrunner until the academy just decided it wasn’t suddenly. That’s literally the entire point of the outrage 

 

No it wasn't. Oppenheimer and Nolan have been frontrunners throughout the season. They lined up more critical awards than several movies combined and then precursors (GG, CC). Gladstone seemed like the frontrunner until it became obvious it was Stone since Venice. Melton was leading critics awards and then the tite turned in RDJs favor. Randolph was so dominant throughout that everyone else was just fighting for 2-5 spots. It's Original script where Barbie and Holdovers had 50/50 shot but Anatomy spoiled it with GG win. 

 

It was never the frontrunner.

They snubbed the greatest superhero movie of all time too, can't forget

Yep, again because it didn’t fit their narrative of what can be worthy of the prestige awards. If certain boxes are unchecked, they’re still gonna be biased as hell nearly two decades removed from TDK

Don't think this was mentioned but BCoop did manage another three nominations today (Actor, Screenplay, producer in Picture), bringing his total up to 12. Assuming he isn't winning any of them this year, he might as well embrace the status of becoming known as The Most Nominated Person With No Wins at this point. :lol:

he too thirsty. people don't like the smell of desperation. AMPAS can't kick the historical icon habit so he got in but that's not enough for a win especailly when your competition is amiable (Giamatti) or chill (Murphy) without signs of thrist. Ofc everyone wants it but BCoop is screaming about it.

He's probably gonna need a really dead year like Leo had in 2015 where no one else was even remotely a threat to win.

Or ya know, do something award worthy. Leo did that many many times and didn’t win, this is not apples to apples comp.
