We knew that not just because of the film’s notable awards traction thus far, but also because of how the Academy works. This prestigious group usually throws its support behind several films in particular, resulting in some buzzed-about films and performances getting left behind, or "snubbed."

Oscars 2023 might witness new rounds of celebrations, accolades, and the usual reminiscence of the Slapgate fiasco.

The True Grit snub is spot-on. She was the star of that movie. I also don't like that Nolan got snubbed, Inception was a brilliant movie.
Why should you be at all surprised there were snubs or screw ups in the nominations? I stopped caring and watching the Academy Awards years ago when American History X wasn't nominated for anything aside from Best Actor for Edward Norton (which he didn't even win).
I lost my faith in the academy long ago and don't much care about what they say.
