Jan 23, 2018 By Christopher Roberts Jonny Greenwood

This morning the nominations for the 2017 Academy Awards were announced. Jonny Greenwood was nominated for Best Original Score for Phantom Thread and Sufjan Stevens was nominated for Best Original Song for “Mystery of Love” from Call Me By Your Name. Under the Radar’s #1 movie of 2017, Get Out, scored multiple nominations, including for Best Picture, Best Director (for Jordan Peele), Best Original Screenplay (also Jordan Peele), and Best Actor (Daniel Kaluuya). Other films nominated for Best Picture are Call Me By Your Name, Darkest Hour, Dunkirk, Lady Bird, Phantom Thread, The Post, The Shape of Water, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. Under the Radar favorites Blade Runner 2049 and Baby Driver both got multiple nominations in the technical categories. Below is the full list of nominees and the winners will be announced on March 4.

Notable snubs include James Franco for The Disaster Artist (he won the Golden Globe for the role, but may have been denied an Oscar nomination due to recent sexual misconduct allegations). And although superhero movies generally don’t do well at the Oscars, some thought that in the age of #MeToo Wonder Woman might have a shot for Best Director (Patty Jenkins), Best Actress (Gal Gadot), or even Best Picture, but it got zero nominations, even in the technical categories. Still, Greta Gerwig was nominated for Best Director for Lady Bird. Blade Runner 2049 was a long shot for Best Picture, but still it could be regarded as a snub that it didn’t get a nomination in that category. Also not nominated for Best Picture was I, Tonya. Martin McDonagh’s Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri was nominated for Best Picture and he received a Best Original Screenplay nomination, but he did not secure a Best Director nomination. Armie Hammer was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Call Me By Your Name. Holly Hunter wasn’t nominated for Best Supporting Actress for The Big Sick and the movie also was nominated for Best Picture (it had to make do with Best Original Screenplay). And no doubt there are many more snubs we aren’t thinking about.
