This stat doesn’t mean that much ever since the preferential ballot has been in place. Maybe you should’ve mentioned that or put an asterisk in your original post?

I can’t see Jojo Rabbit being snubbed for Best Picture at the Oscars. Or Marriage Story.

Look at that! I guess that Jojo Rabbit is sixth-going-on-fifth then.

Also, first-time feature nominees are Mati Diop for Atlantics, Alma Har’el for Honey Boy, Joe Talbot for The Last Black Man in San Francisco, Tyler Nilson and Michael Schwartz for The Peanut Butter Falcon and Melina Matsoukas for Queen & Slim.

That 5th spot is going to a female director due to backlash, I believe
