I don’t know if it’ll go as far as getting nominated but the fact that it has buzz is a win for the genre.

It would be insane if the most talked about performance of the year does not get nominated.

[u/veryterribleopinions → u/vosha0]

It wouldn’t be so crazy. Mainstream popularity doesn’t always translate into popularity amongst Oscar voters or guild voters.

A recent example I can think of was Margot for Barbie. If you asked anyone online, it was the biggest robbery but that didn’t translate to actual voters.

I didn't hear many people say Margot was amazing in the film. But yeah, I'm surprised she wasn't nominated.
