We asked the movie lovers of the BuzzFeed Community to tell us about the films and performances they think were snubbed by the Oscars this year. Here are their nominations for what and who should have been nominated!
1. Lupita Nyong'o definitely deserved some academy acknowledgment for her performances as BOTH Adelaide and Red in Us.
2. While Jojo Rabbit raked in six Oscar nominations (including Best Picture), Sam Rockwell missed out on Best Supporting Actor and Taika Waititi wasn't nominated for Best Director.
3. Despite getting nearly 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, Dolemite Is My Name didn't get a single nomination.
4. Many Marvel fans thought that Avengers: Endgame deserved more than a single nomination for its visual effects.
5. While Cynthia Erivo was nominated for Best Actress for her role in Harriet, the film was definitely overlooked in other categories.
6. Although it got a 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, Blue Story got zero recognition from the Oscars or any other major awards show.
7. Tom Hanks, who is genuinely one of the nicest guys on the planet, snagged a nomination for his work in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, but director Marielle Heller got zilch.
8. Despite making the short list for Best International Feature Film, Truth and Justice ultimately went unnominated.

21. Willem Dafoe didn't get nominated for The Lighthouse, but the film still got an Oscar nomination for its cinematography.
22. Midsommar, in addition to being a very awkward date movie for heterosexual couples, was a horror masterpiece and absolutely deserved some nominations.
