    A Star is Born was my favorite movie of those nominated, but Roma should win.

    this year feels like a regression to the mean after last year's wealth of surprise nominations for great stuff like Lady Bird, Get Out, Phantom Thread, Call Me By Your Name, etc.

    academy gotta overcorrect I suppose

    It clearly has a ton of other support around the Academy, though, and Cuaron is also the favorite for Best Director, which many still link to Best Picture. So I’m not counting it out yet.

    Original screenplay category is infuriating.

    Only one of the eight nominated films is fronted mainly by a white male lead. That’s pretty good in terms of representation at least.

    John David Washington is the biggest snub for me. Travesty that Mortensen gets in and he doesn’t.

  14. No Crazy Rich Asians, but Isle of Dogs gets nominated. I see you.

    At least Bao and Black Panther are getting recognition.

    cool that Spike Lee finally got nominated

    laughable and emblematic of the academy as a whole that it took 33 years since his debut for it to happen

    Nothing for “Eighth Grade” bums me out.

    It's chaos. Be kind. Prestigious

    I still need to see The Favourite and Bohemian Rhapsody, but A Star is Born is the only one of the eight films I actively enjoyed.

    Buddy Boy Prestigious

    I really hope Infinity War or Christopher Robin gets Visual Effects. The latter seemed to be really overlooked by many, but I thought it was a great movie.

    Won't You Be My Neighbor not getting a Doc nomination is the worst thing about this. Ugh.

    No Eighth Grade and no Hereditary. I had much higher hopes for Bo getting some kind of recognition. There are definitely a few categories that could have easily put them in.

    Black Panther really deserves Costume Design and Production Design. So imaginative and vibrant.
