Boy, they really love Joker. I don't really get it, but to each their own.
Pleasantly surprised to see Margot Robbie get nominated for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood along with the expected nod for Bombshell. I'm guessing the Oscars will go for the latter when their nominations are revealed.
I am sure Robbie getting two supporting nominations over, say, Shuzhen Zhao, makes things look particularly bad.
Still, I don't think choices should be curated outside of merit, but it reflects both bias within the voting base and the limits of the demographics in question.
God I wish Margot would get nominated for Hollywood over Bombshell...won’t happen though.
Jlo and Awkwafina not getting nominated is dropping that ball certainly. Would have liked to see Song take the 5th supporting actor slot as well. Award shows are particularly horrible when it comes to nominating Asian actors. I’m sure there are others.
Acting nominees were also all white, no JLo, Antonio, or lupita nyong'o. People are gonna be mad
not to take away from your general sentiment, but antonio banderas is white lol
also, i am likely #1 fangirl of margot robbie on this website, but her getting 2 noms withinthesamecategory is a huge WTF
i’d get it if it was separate categories and both of the performances were truly showstopping (haven’t yet seen bombshell) but there was no way they couldn’t have given one of the noms to, let’s say, lopez..?? even if to make the category feel more varied?
