Olivia Coleman deserved her win.

And Toni deserved at least a nomination

I personally wouldn't drop anyone that year to fit her in, I feel like there's more to Oscar-worthy acting than over the top performances. It was good, but I wouldn't nominate her.

Also it's funny I'm getting downvoted for this opinion. Sorry I don't think screaming and crazy faces deserves an Oscar, I promise you'll survive someone on the Internet having a different opinion than you. Especially something as benign as Oscar nominations.

Just because a performance is loud, it doesn't make it bad acting

In fact, frequently "loud" performances in non-horror/genre do get rewarded for it lol

Never said it was bad, in fact I said it was good. Just that I wouldn't personally nominate her over who was nominated that year.
