The Academy finally dropped its 2024 Oscar nominee list on Tuesday morning. Amongst this list are a variety of exciting nods and shocking snubs.

Once again, both Barbie and Oppenheimer are going toe to toe in the cinematic Thunderdome. In July, these films were released on the same Friday, pitting against each other for the top box office opening. In this case, Oppenheimer seems to have beaten out Barbie for the most nominations at thirteen categories compared to Barbie’s eight. Still, there is a chance that Barbie could beat out Oppenheimer and go home to Barbieland with the Best Picture or Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay).

In addition to this Barbenheimer: Second Chapter, the Oscars also feature several unique nominations in filmmaking. For instance, Godzilla: Minus One was nominated for Best Visual Effects, making it the first Godzilla movie to be recognized by the Academy. In response to this nomination, director Takashi Yamazaki posed with his crew members in a photo on X (formerly known as Twitter), excitedly proclaiming, “We did it!!!!!” Later, Toho shared a video of Yamakazi holding a Godzilla figurine and thanking the audience for supporting his film.

Lily Gladstone and Martin Scorsese were nominated for Best Actress and Best Director for their work on Killers of the Flower Moon. Not only is Scorsese the most nominated living director, but Gladstone is the first Native American actress to be nominated for a lead role in the Oscars.

However, there have been a variety of snubs that are either surprising or somewhat hilarious. For instance, Leonardo DiCaprio and Greta Gerwig were praised for their work in Killers of the Flower Moon and Barbie but were passed on nominations. In contrast, while Nimona, who Disney notoriously shelved for allegedly not fitting their brand, was nominated for Best Animated Feature, Disney’s Wish, which was intended to celebrate its 100th anniversary, was completely ignored. While Pixar still had Elementals nominated for the same award, the irony is amusing to many animation fans who connected more to Nimona while deriding Wish.

Again… It is such HILARIOUS poetic justice that the film that was denied completion by Disney for “not fitting the brand” ends up nominated for Best Animated Feature while Wish, the brandiest Disney brand film to ever brand, ends up getting snubbed…#FizzVsComics #Nimona https://t.co/ODlor4MR4a pic.twitter.com/WgqoJ76LhB
