Alicia Vikander should have gotten her Oscar for Ex Machina.

Willem Dafoe should have won for The Lighthouse.

Uncut Gems should have been nominated for a ton of stuff, but especially Best Actor and Original Score.

I actually did feel bad for Ben Affleck not getting nominated for Argo. Just felt kind of petty at the time, even though I liked The Town more.

I second you on that one, my friend. One of my favorite performances of any actor last year.

I agree. Every instance of the branch snubbing the DGA winner has looked really petty tbh.

I’d also have given Bradley Cooper a Directing nom for ASIB; he could’ve easily taken McKay’s place. Not the biggest snub but I don’t think it’s been mentioned yet.

Lupita Nyong’O for Lead Actress (Us).  Especially THIS since she was the Best Actress in 2020.

With Ben Affleck winning directing for Argo everywhere, Oscars snubbing him for Best Director was a PURE SHOCK.

David Oyelowo for Lead Actor (Selma)

Hong Chou (Downsizing) for Supporting Actress.  It was shocking she didn’t get nominated.

Alfre Woodard for Lead Actress (Clemency)

I’m okay with this, because now Jane Campion can have the honor of being the first woman nominated twice.
