I really thought we might get a woman nominated for best director.

Oh I knew we wouldn't. I'm just shocked that Little Women is the only female directed movie recognized at all.

ETA: Oh oops I did accidentally overlook Tom Hanks who was in a female directed movie, but that is the only other one to be recognized this year.

I've yet to see Little Women but something tells me Greta Gerwig deserves to be there more than Todd Phillips.

Every single one of the best actress and best supporting actress nominees are women!!!!! What more do you want?!?!?!?!?

Harriet was directed by a woman as well but it was merely nominated for acting.

Ah I haven't seen Harret yet so I genuinely had no idea.

I wanted Awkwafina and JLo to get acting nominations this year, and they were both directed by women as well. In fact I'm FLOORED that The Farewell didn't receive A SINGLE FUCKING NOMINATION!

Also, is it just me or is it odd Ford v Ferrari is best picture nominated? I haven't seen it yet (just opened here) but it has no directing, writing or acting nominations. Normally best picture nominees are represented in the main categories.

If we're talking purely on direction and nothing else, I think Joker is at least in the conversation for best direction. I'd put it in over One Upon A Time In Hollywood. I'd put Little Women above both on directing though.

Ugh. I hadn't even noticed. That's bullshit.

Ford V Ferrari is perfectly fine. Nothing stands out about it but it's maybe better than the sum of its parts. I definitely wouldn't have nominated it for best picture. But it's worth watching.

Yeah but only two movies were made last year that were directed by women, right?

Before we get too negative with everything I just want to say what a great year this is for South Korean cinema. Not only was last year the 100th anniversary of South Korean cinema but Parasite is the first South Korean movie nominated for best international picture (formly best foreign language film). Not only that but it is also the 12th foreign film to get the best picture nod as well. In addition Bong Joon Ho is the first South Korean to be nominated for best director as well. This is all a big win for a great movie as well. Personally, I would have liked to see some acting nods for it as well but that production design nomination is a good call.

I also want to say that I'm glad Frozen 2 wasn't nominated for Animated Feature.

Has Spielberg pitched a fit yet about all the Netflix movies being nominated? Or is that only when it's GDT?

I'm also very happy for Florence Pugh getting nominated because I thought she was one of the standouts in acting this year.

Alfonso Cauron directed Roma, but your sentiment still stands.

Oof! My bad! I still haven’t seen it. I just remember all the hullabaloo. It’s just crazy—Cauron makes a Netflix movie (“This isn’t cinema!”), Scorsese makes a Netflix movie...crickets.

We know exactly the reasoning behind those crickets...

After Little Women was bizarrely shut out by the Globes, I'm glad it got lots of nominations here. And yes, I would have nominated Gerwig for director.

Joker is going to age very poorly, mark my words. It's a surface-level impressive movie that doesn't have the depth people think. But given the awards season to date, I knew it would get a lot of nominations here.

Meanwhile, the Documentary branch continues its trend of bizarrely leaving out some popular, critically-acclaimed doc because . . . reasons. (That would be Apollo 11 this year.)

I think we have to give him a bit more time to say something dumb about the future of movies. He didn't come out anti-Roma the same day the nominees were announced last year.

Now if Ford V. Ferrari somehow wins best picture...

I’m legitimately excited to see Parasite get some love and I hope it takes Joker out.

i don’t see how Joker was nominated for best adapted screenplay. I have not seen Little Women yet, but it clearly deserves the win here.

Ford V Ferrari was actively OK, I just don’t give a shit about auto racing.

basically, the academy has set up these awards to—surprise, surprise—largely be as bland as possible.

Should have mentioned Parasite, though given the awards season thus far it seemed clear that was getting a Best Picture nomination plus a bunch of others. This is a big landmark for South Korean cinema.
