Gyllenhaal was better than everyone else nominated that year in the Best Actor category. He should have WON and he didn't even get nominated. Truly infuriating.
Absolutely not. That year was strong. I loved each and every performance starting from Eddie as Hawking, Keaton’s Birdman to Steve Carrell’s terrific take on the psychotic coach, Bradley’s Sniper and ofc the flawless Cumberbatch…. If Jake does this 1 year later he easily should have won either.
Toni Collette’s “Hereditary” is THE PERFORMANCE OF THE DECADE! She was phenomenal! This is the “Sophie’s Choice” performance of this generation. She should’ve being nominated and won. It’s ridiculous!
Toni Collette for Hereditary should be the biggest Oscar snub of all time IMO, it was criminal how she wasn’t even acknowledged! I’d also add Tilda Swinton for We Need to Talk about Kevin, Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers, Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattison for The Lighthouse, Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems, and Awkwafina for the Farewell.
Toni Collette missing a Best Actress nomination for her spectacular job in Hereditary has got to be the most frustrating, sad, and unbelievable thing to happen at the Oscars in recent years. It's even worse than Denis Villeneuve missing his nomination for Dune. As with every snub it's always important to think about it in context. In other words, if you put someone in you have to take someone out of the eventual nominees list. I'm happy to see you talked about who should've been replaced in many of your choices. Another great video!!
It’s not really unbelievable. The academy is always biased against horror films. “Get out” I think is the only recent horror film that was able to overcome that.
Right?! There was most definitely a huge vocal crowd that was upset over her not getting recognized. I feel like her performance and that movie kind of reinvigorated the conversation about horror movies never being recognized by the academy.
Completely agree. Toni Collete in Hereditary will go down as the biggest snub in history. She is astounding in that movie. Just minutes of her grief performance alone when she’s sobbing. I was floored. The genre bias really is egregious b/c Lupita in Us was also an incredible performance
I’m so glad that you used my suggestion!!! My Original list: My list 1: Amy Adam’s (Arrival) 2: Mila Kunis (Black Swan) 3: Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) 4: Miles Teller (Whiplash) 5: Toni Collete (Hereditary) 6: Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street/Babylon) 7: Taraji P Henson (Hidden Figures) 8: Lupita N’yongo (Us) 9: Diego Calva (Babylon) 10: Jake gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler)
The fact that Collette and Gyllenhall only have one academy award nomination each really is shocking to me they're two of my favorites, and the fact that Amy Adams hasn't won yet really gets to me. The movie you mentioned for each of their snubs are movies I'm a huge fan of. One performance that is incredibly underrated and is absolutely worth a nomination is Leo DiCaprio in Shutter Island. The movie itself was pushed back from a fall to a February release date and it was overshadowed by Inception, being another psychological Leo starring movie of 2010, but his performance in it is literally perfect. The dream sequences and the scene towards the end at the lake are haunting mainly because he sells it so well. Another one for best actor that I remember being upset about was JGL in 50/50. It's funny because that movie is rather personal to me in that I had a close family member get diagnosed less than two months after it was released but he sells the despair and hopelessness a cancer diagnosis so well.
From the outside you can say how someone Adams hasn't won yet. But then you see who won each year and it's comprenhensible. And that happens very often. Last year was shameful though.
Tilda Swinton - We need to talk about Kevin Emma Thompson - Saving Mr Banks Toni Collette - Hereditary Taraji P Hennson - Hidden Figures Delroy Lindo - Da 5 Bloods Emily Blunt - A quiet place Williem Defoe - The Lighthouse Ann Dowd - Mass Song Kang-ho - Parasite Hilary Swank - Conviction Nicole Kidman - Detroyer John Goodman - 10 Cloverfield Lane Aisling Franciosi - The Nightingale All to name a few
Great list!!! I wanna add: Emily Blunt - A Quiet Place and Mary Poppins Tilda Swinton - We Need To Talk About Kevin Jacob Tremblay - Room Jennifer Lopez - Hustlers Anyone from Parasite, esp Song Kang Ho (Dad) and Park So Dam (daughter)
Mine is definitely Toni Collette for Hereditary, such an amazing performance, The Academy should really start considering horror on The same level as other genres, same thing happened with Mia Goth for Pearl, which was very much deserving as well, Its kinda crazy to think that The last real best actress winner for a horror movie was Jodie Foster in The 90’s
In my Oscars snubs Danielle Deadwyler for Till is one I still haven't figured out and another one is Emma Thompson for Saving Mr. Banks , her performance in that film is brilliant and heartbreaking at the same time. She was getting nominated for almost everything that year. I wish that the Oscar 5 for best actress for this year could had the Sag 5. I love The Danish girl and Alicia Vikander is great in it and if she could had been nominated for best actress for both Ex Machina and The Danish Girl in the same year like they used to do back in the early days of the Oscars
Toni Collette is for me the number 1 Snub in recent years (Hereditary). Amy Adams is a strong second, because she didn’t have only one but TWO great performances in Arrival AND Nocturnal Animals. 3rd is Tilda Swinton for We need to talk about Kevin. This year, definitely Danielle Deadwyler !
happy to see Song Kang Ho make it in, Parasite is still probably my favorite Oscar winner in recent memory!! i wonder if he could've taken on Brad Pitt in supporting that year because there was so much love for Pitt and i think this was OUATIH's only win that night, but if 2023 proved anything its that the academy doesn't care about consolation prizes so a Song Kang Ho win could have been totally possible imo if the campaign and the nom were there
Essie Davis for the Babadook! She was incredible and received a handful of critics and festival noms for her performance. But the film never gained awards traction since it was horror :/
My number one is Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems. I can’t believe he was overlooked. I know that movie was either loved or hated, very divisive, but he was phenomenal!
That year it was stacked. Have you seen the nominees? Phoenix for Joker, Banderas for Pain and Glory, Driver for Marriage Story, DiCaprio fro OUATIH and Steven Price for The Two Popes. And the ones that got left out as well? Kang-ho for Parasites, Bale for FvF, Eagerton in Rocketman, Dafoe and Pattinson in The Lighthouse, DeNiro for The Irishman, Mackay for 1917, Pitt for Ad Astra. And then two "supporting" performances that could well have been leading and be nominated, Pitt for OUATIH and Pacino for The Irishman.
My list: 1. Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler) 2. Amy Adams (Arrival) 3. Toni Collete (Hereditary) 4. Lupita Nyong'o (Us) 5. Danielle Deadwyler (Till) 6. Timothée Chalamet (Beautiful Boy) 7. Andrew Garfield (The Social Network) 8. Tilda Swinton (We need to talk about Kevin) 9. Lady Gaga (House of Gucci) 10. Taron Edgerton (Rocketman) Honorable mentions: Lucas Hedges (Boy Erased) Taraji P. Henson (Hidden Figures) Leonardo DiCaprio (Djiango Unchained) Emma Thompson (Saving Mr. Banks) Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse) Jacob Tremblay (Room) Michael Fassbender (Shame)
Love this new series and those are some great picks. Other personal snubs I'd include are: Delroy Lindo for Da 5 Bloods David Oyelowo for Selma Jessica Chastain for Molly's Game Shailene Woodley for The Descendants Nicolas Cage for Pig Mia Goth for Pearl Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers Tom Hanks for Captain Phillips Margot Robbie for Wolf of Wall Street
So many great choices! Those Toni Colette, Lupita Nyongo, Danielle Deadwyler, and Amy Adams snubs still hurt! Especially since Amy got snubbed for her best performance! Agreed with Parasite for Song Kang Ho too. I would also add Ethan Hawke for First Reformed & Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers (her best performance since Selena & Out Of Sight, though I always knew the BAFTA snub, her tabloid persona, and mixed filmography would have set her back). Great top 10 list & a very creative presentation too!
My Biggest Snubs: Taron Egerton - Rocketman 2019 Alan Rickman - Deathly Hallows Part 2 2011 Robert Pattinson - Good Time 2017 Johnny Depp - Black Mass 2013 Ralph Fiennes - Grand Budapest Hotel 2014 Emma Thompson - Saving Mr Banks 2013 Amy Adams - Arrival 2016 Carey Mulligan - She Said 2022 Timothy Spall - Mr Turner 2014 Jason Isaacs & Ann Dowd - Mass 2021 Mads Mikkelsen - Another Round Viola Davis - Woman King Andrew Garfield - Social Network Timothee Chalamet - Beautiful Boy Eddie Redmayne - Good Nurse All 3 Leads - Perks of Being a Wallflower
Not including the ones on this list (Because YES!) here are some other ones I’ll throw out: • Nicholas Cage - Pig • Entire Cast - Straight Outta Compton • Anne Dorval - Mommy • Ryan Gosling - Blade Runner 2049 • Aubrey Plaza - Black Bear • Willem Dafoe - The Lighthouse • Florence Pugh - Lady Macbeth • Simon Rex - Red Rocket • Dev Patel - Green Knight • Olivia Colman - Tyrannosaur • Aisling Franciosi, Sam Claflin, and Baykali Ganambarr - The Nightingale • Mads Mikkelson - The Hunt • Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems • Ruth Negga - Passing • Lubna Azabal - Incendies Edit: Forgot Logan Marshall Green - Upgrade
You almost got me there! I really thought for a second that you'd forgot to include Toni Collete's performance in Hereditary. I absolutely agree in all levels that she should've been nominated for this role. She's magnificent
My Top 5 Oscar Snubs ever since 2010: 1. Jake Gyllenhaal- Nightcrawler (Still makes me upset to this day that he got snubbed, just an exceptional and committed career best performance from him.) 2. Amy Adams - Arrival 3. Tom Hanks - Captain Phillips 4. Andrew Garfield - The Social Network 5. Taron Egerton - Rocketman (He did an incredible job playing Elton John from his singing and emotions. I thought he was way better than Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.) Honorable Mentions: Willem Dafoe - The Lighthouse Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems Lupita Nyong’o- Us Awkwafina - The Farewell Caitroina Balfe - Belfast Leonardo DiCaprio- Django Unchained (That skull scene alone should’ve gotten him nominated.) Claire Foy - First Man Elsie Fisher - Eighth Grade Charlize Theron - Mad Max: Fury Road (I would replace Jennifer Lawrence in Joy with Theron that year.) Albert Brooks - Drive
Great list! I would also add Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia, Kate Winslet in Ammonite, Jennifer Aniston in Cake and Emily Blunt in Sicario or A Quiet Place.
Thank you for another great video! I’m surprised you didn’t mention Hong Chau for “Downsizing,” despite being nominated for a ton of precursors that year. But perhaps it’s because “Downsizing” was not a well received film in general. Perhaps one day you can create a video how the academy tends to snub AAPI performances in general? You mentioned Song Kang-Ho, and it’s nice seeing Youn Yuh-Jung, Steven Yeun, and of course Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yeoh as of late, but some names that come to my mind that had buzz were Tsai Chin (Joy Luck Club), Awkwafina (The Farewell), Zhao Suh-Zhen (The Farewell), and THE ABSOLUTE WORST Zhang Ziyi for “Memoirs of Geisha,” who was nominated for every precursor and was so blatantly snubbed by the Academy!
Hong Chau is a goddess! She ate in The Menu too. Dolly De Leon (TOS), Gong Li (Memoirs), Michelle Yeoh (CTHD) and Maggie Cheung (Hero), Kim Hye-ja (Mother) snubs reek of bias.
Great list. The only one I would have mentioned was Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia however we all know she didn't get a nomination because of that train wreck of a press converse lmao. If your doing a 00s list for the snubbed acting categories I would suggest Naomi Watts (Mulholland drive) and Bjork (dance in the dark)
Oh my gosh, this is one of my favorite topics to talk about. I agree with ALL of these so hard (I haven’t seen Before Midnight or Drive but I’m sure you’re right). For Mass, Martha Plimpton is who really tore my heart out but as you said, everyone deserved the nom, as did the movie. Toni was the obvious number one so I knew you’d come through there. Also SO happy to hear shoutouts for Andrew in Social Network. My additions would be Awkwafina in The Farewell (simply incredible performance by a usually comedic actor) and, from the same year, Willem Dafoe in The Lighthouse (weird ass movie that I didn’t even love but I feel like his performance is undeniably awards-worthy). You continue to deliver!!!
Thank you for naming Julie Delpy. She was near perfection on Midnight. One I think who deserved an Oscar nom is Ralph Fiennes at The Grand Budapest Hotel. Toni Collette was absolutely robbed.
I'm glad you mentioned Ex-Machina because I still think Oscar Isaac deserved a Best Supporting Actor nomination. He was incredible in that movie with a very dynamic performance.
-For Nightcrawler Rene Russo and Jake Gyllenhaal..... especially Jake..... but that year was so strong with such great nominees...... -Matthew McConaughey for Interstellar -Amy Adams for Arrival (Best actress) and Nocturnal animals (Best supporting Actress) -Jessica Chastain for Miss Sloane -Ray Liotta for Marriage story -Toni Collette and Alex Wolff for Hereditary -Florence Pugh for Midsommar -Lupita Nyongo for Us -Anya Taylor Joy for VVitch -Sam Rockwell for JoJo Rabit or/and Richard Jewell -Emma Stone for Cruella (that monologue OMG!!) -Ryan Gosling for Blue valentine -Hailee Steinfeld for Edge of seventeen -Alicia Vikander for Ex machina and Light between the oceans -Rooney Mara for Una. -Cameron Diaz for Counselor (honestly her darkest role ever played brilliantly but the whole script was so messy....) -Andrew Garfield for Social network and/or Never let me go -Carey Mulligan and Keira Knightley for Never let me go -Keira Knightley for Anna Karenina -Anna Paquin for Margaret -Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg for Melancholia
Kirsten Dunst not being nominated for Melancholia is one of the snubs I remember being really upset about at the time, and it still annoys me. She was so wonderful in it. I also wish Never Let Me Go got more attention as while I can understand the film is not for everyone as it's quite melodramatic in tone (which I like but not everyone does) the performances are stellar and really elevate it. Possibly they just didn't know who to pick, but Keira Knightley would be my top choice. And with all the very correct outrage for Toni Collette not being nominated, it's also baffling to me that Alex Wolff wasn't in there either, he gave a unique and extremely effective performance that stays with me well after the film is over. When he dissociates in the car and afterward it feels completely real.
10. Andrew Garfield, The Social Network 9. Albert Brooks, Drive 8. Margot Robbie, Babylon 7. Toni Collette, Hereditary 6. Rosamund Pike, I care a lot 5. Colin Farrell, In Bruges 4. Jason Isaacs, Mass 3. Amy Adams, Arrival 2. Hugh Jackman, Prisoners 1. Jake Gyllenhaal, Nightcrawler
Besides the ones you've included on your list I believe these performances also deserve a shout: David Oyelowo (Selma), Ethan Hawke (First Reformed), Adam Sandler (Uncut Gems), Willem Defoe (The Lighthouse), Delroy Lindo (Da 5 Bloods), Florence Pugh (Midsommar), Ryan Gosling (Blue Valentine), James Franco (The Disaster Artist), Mads Mikkelsen (Another Round/The Hunt), Elsie Fisher (Eight Grade), Marcello Fonte (Dogman), Tom Cruise (Rock of Ages), Dakota Johnson (Cha Cha Real Smooth)
I 100% agree with you about Albert Brooks. I always thought of him as a comedic actor and for him to play the villain so well in Drive, it really blew me away.
Love to see Toni, Danielle, Lupita, Ann and Jake in this list I would give also a nod yo Robert Pattinson for Good Time William Dafoe for The Lighthouse Patrick Stewart for Logan Mike Faist for West SIDE Story Catriona Balfe and Jamie Dornan for Belfast Anthony Ramos for In the Heights And the one that i think should have won her category but wasnt nominated is Olga Mereditz for In the Heights
This is my list: Michael Fassbender, Shame Matthew McC, Killer Joe Jake Gyllenhaal, Nightcrawler Amy Adams, Arrival Toni Collette, Hereditary Lupita Nyong'o, Us
Killer Joe is so damn underrated. I love that movie. 😂 Matthew M had a couple of really good movies that he should’ve been nominated for. Mud would be another one.
I would have included Jacob Tremblay for "Room". The scene where his character sees the world for the first time gets me every time and I think he should have been recognized for that superb - super mature - work!
It’s crazy to think there may not have been much enthusiasm for Till when Danielle WAS Till. Her performance is everything in that movie and was truly handed to the academy on a silver platter. Just egregious. I do wonder if it were in 6th or 7th place. In that case, since BP gets 10 slots, why not increase the acting slots? At least by one or two.
Not really. Black people didn't even like Till. They were so sick and tired of the characture of the broken black mother stereotypes. That's what Deadwyler played, if you saw Mamie irl she was nothing like Deadwyler played, that's why they embraced Woman King because it got to see Black women kicking butt and being awesome.
@harmenmoes9138 Gina Prince was critics choice and bafta nominated. Let's be real the woman King shoulda gotten anywhere upto 10 noms 1. Picture 2. Director 3. Actress 4. Supporting Actress 5. Score 6. Editing 7. Costumes 8. Hair and Make Up 9. Production Design 10. Song
I completely agree with you about Collette, Adams, Gyllenhaal (Rene Russo deserved one too), Dowd (and everyone in the cast) and N'yongo. I get disappointed as well in some of the choices, but I always justify it by feeling the voting is so close and one or two votes could knock them out of contention. Deadwyler should have been in as well, but I just don't get Michelle Williams at all (found her performance over the top hammy like the movie) and, if anything, she should have been supporting.
I loved Lupita in US. I also think Jennifer Hudson gave the best performance of 2021. To this day, Lupita and Jennifer are the only black actresses who scored Leading And Supporting nods from SAG (apart from Viola). But the Academy chose safed options. I do think if Jennifer was submitted in Musical/ Comedy she woulda won the Globe over Rachel Zegler
A new series, lucky us! Your videos are so cleverly and amusing written, and your presentation is charming and compelling. This video was a pleasure to watch, and you're so right, Gyllenhaal and especially the chimeric Toni Collette deserved more recognition for their roles.
I looked up Mass after watching your video because your description intrigued me. I adore both Ann Dowd and Martha Plimpton, so seeing that they did a film together is super exciting! One note though, the Wikipedia page for Mass says it premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. IMDB also has it dated 2021.
James McAvoy in Split. The dude just goes for it and gives what I think is the best performance of his career. Everybody knows that he should have at least been nominated.
I don't fully agree with Andrew Garfield. To be honest, for me, both of the main performances in The Social Network: Jesse as Zuckerberg, and Andrew as his friend, were not Oscar-worthy at all, and quite bland. But out of the two, Andrew was def the better one. Maybe he could have gotten in the place of Mark Ruffalo because Ruffallo's role in The Kids Are All Right wasn't an amazing one either, and it could be argued that Garfield's one was better. That is all as the nominations go in this category in 2011, but the supporting actor winner that year was absolutely spot on: Christian Bale in The Fighter is a masterpiece of a performance. He was better Dicky than Dicky!
The fact Drive 2011 didn’t get a best picture nomination meanwhile “Extremely loud & Incredibly close” somehow managed to sneak in. Probably one of the worst best picture nominees.
Love this list! One performance I would love to add (in my humble opinion) is Mia Goth in Pearl. Her performance was so dynamic I was absolutely glued to the screen. I wish horror films were recognized more in general, some amazing films over the past decade that fly completely under the radar. Honorable mentions to Naomi Watts in Mulholland Drive, Laura Dern in Inland Empire, and Sheryl Lee in Fire Walk with Me (as you can see I love Lynch)
i casually watched some of your other videos about acting awards and always wondered, if there might be one about missed oscar nominations and whether toni colette would be on it. abd lo and behold there is a video, AND SHE'S NUMBER ONE! i think about her incredible performance on a regular basis for years now, and how she deserved so much recognition for this stellar showing.
Great video - and I agree with you wholeheartedly especially about Toni Collette. Funnily enough when you were talking about horror movie bias I immediately thought of Toni and then there it was as your no. 1 snub. Agreed. It's ridiculous about the whole horror movie bias - it's an intense and emotive genre when done right but there are those, and I bet they are in the award show members that equate horror with slasher so it's immediately dismissed. What a shame. She is phenomenal in it and it's baffling how she was overlooked. You frequently mention good performances in so-so movies or movies that weren't popular. They cannot seem to separate the performance from the movie itself. And isn't the performance what they should be focusing on? My own personal outrage at Oscar snubs is Leslie Manville for Another Year - one of the most heart-breaking performances I have ever seen - the best portrayal of depression put on screen and apart from a Bafta nomination and some others, she was hideously overlooked.
Omggggg i am soooo happy you included Alicia for Ex-Machina!! I remember watching that movie and just being in awe of what she was able to achieve. I actually love the movie overall and believe it is a hidden gem most have never even heard of. But yeah she was pretty remarkable.
I agree Danielle Deadwyler should have been nominated but I’m positive she’ll be back in the Oscars race as it was announced she’ll be in the film adaptation of The Piano Lesson. This is an August Wilson play and Viola Davis is known for getting Oscar nominations for his work. So….🙏🙏🙏🙏
There's a lot of good buzz for that film especially because of the play which is in contention at the Tonys this year. She might finally get recognition for that film hopefully, it has a strong ensemble of actors too.
I really liked this video. Next time you do one can you also refresh our memory with what year each snub was as well as the other actors who were nominated? Just a suggestion, keep up the good work!
My top 10 1. Toni Collette - Hereditary 2. Géza Röhrig - Son of Saul 3. Everyone in Parasite 4. Michael Fassbender - Shame 5. Emma Thompson - Saving Mr Banks 6. Robert Pattinson & Willem Dafoe - The Lighthouse 7. Jake Gyllenhaal - Nightcrawler 8. Andrew Garfield - The Social Network 9. Bryce Dallas Howard - The Help 10. Nicole Kidman - The Paperboy
Lead Actress: -Taraji P Henson (Hidden Figures) -Hailee Steinfeld (Edge of Seventeen) -Saoirse Ronan (Mary Queen of Scots) -Emilia Jones (CODA) -Lily Collins (To the Bone) Supporting Actress -Lily Collins (Extremely Wicked…) -Margot Robbie (Mary Queen of Scots) -Bryce Dallas Howard (Rocketman) Lead Actor -Chadwick Boseman (Get on Up and Marshall) -Michael B Jordan (Creed) -Taron Egerton (Rocketman) Supporting Actor -Jamie Bell (Rocketman)
Honestly incredible picks, and I agree 100% with the top 10, especially the top 4 and most importantly Top 1, yeah, Toni’s performance is a once in a lifetime , how she portrait grief from a very human and real way, and part of why the movie is so draining and oppressive is because u FEEL what she’s feeling, is like the same feeling of going to a funeral in real life and seen the screams, the pain, it was all to real and she was by far the best acting that year, hell is one of the best performances I seen in my life, top 5 one
Shame is one of my all time favorite movies, and I often feel like I'm the only one who's seen it. It's so powerful and hauntingly beautiful but also tragic and Michael Fassbender gives the performance of a lifetime. He's one of my top favorite actors, so thank you for mentioning him 💜
Just found your Chanel love you mentioning brooks in drive that movie overall is so underrated honestly one of my favorite films of the last decade and i don't see nobody mention it
The Top 5 Acting Oscar Snubs from the 2010's that you left out Adam Sandler (Uncut Gems) Taraji P. Henson (Hidden Figures) Emma Thompson (Saving Mr. Banks) Tom Hanks (Captain Phillips) Tilda Swinton (We Need To Talk About Kevin)
Leslie Manville in Another Year is my number 1 snub. It's one of my favorite performances. So nuanced, funny, and depressing. Of course, Mike Leigh films don't get the recognition they deserve, but with a Best Original Screenplay nomination that year, she deserved a nomination. She got one for Phantom Thread, but she's better in Another Year. My #2 is Ben Foster not getting nominated for Hell or High Water. Bridges was good, but that was Foster's film. He deserved a nomination for Leave No Trace as well. #3 for me would be Joel Edgerton in Loving. It's such an understated role, totally lacking glamor and flash, but the subtle nuances and the way he just inhabits the role is really something. Negga was just as good and got a nomination.
Ben Foster by this point is insanely overdue for Oscar recognition, he's constantly been putting out amazing but underrated work. I hope he gets the Sam Rockwell treatment.
@@navidhudson7065 I've been a fan of Foster since Six Feet Under. I knew he was a special talent back then. I also loved his work in Galveston. Rockwell was long overdue too. Foster had never really had that great role that broke out into the public eye until Hell or High Water was a big success. Hopefully he will get another great role that plenty of people see.
@@MattrickBT Yeah I first saw him in the teen flick Get Over It and it's insane how far he's come ever since. He definitely got more notices after Hell or High Water, this year he was overlooked for that Will Smith drama Emancipation which he seemed like a contender at one point. Hopefully his Oscars chance will come closer.
Yes, this list is perfect! I'd say the cast of "Mass" had an uphill battle especially the cast members would be considered Supporting but both Dowd and Plimpton wete astonishing. With lesser actresses they would have been one note performances! Also, you left out Lily Tomlin in "Grandma" she was campaigned in Supporting but she was the title character and in every scene in the film and should have received a lead nomination!
One I never see get brought up is Daniel Bruhl in Rush. It’s a very calculated performance where Bruhl is basically expected to play a real-life person as a borderline sociopath, but he absolutely nailed it - and got nominated at both the Golden Globes and the BAFTAs for it. But the film ended up going empty-handed on Oscar night.
I absolutely agree with your picks, especially Toni Collette, Lupita Nyong'o and Jake Gyllenhaal. Others that I think should have been nominated as well include Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin), Jeremy Renner (Wind River), Mia Goth (Pearl), and Patton Oswalt (Young Adult).
I met Alicia Vikander at a party shortly after her Oscar win. And I congratulated her for the Oscar, but said "You were great, but you actually deserved an Oscar for Ex Machina instead." Vikander is for the record very friendly, extremely humble and has no diva antics whatsoever.
@@TheAwardsContender She took it well, whereas her PR manager was shocked. But she was super friendly, too. Did not see the convo taking that turn, though, but was happy to hear that someone actually had seen "Ex Machina".
Thank you for mentioning Julie Delpy in this video. She is often overlooked but she is a brilliant actress who has a natural gift. She is so good that it does not seem like she is acting. What a great talent!
My number one snub of the 2010s is Taraji P. Henson for Hidden Figures. Her performance as Katherine was astounding, and I've never understood how the Academy could snub her, especially seeing how Octavia Spencer got nominated for the same movie.
Great video. Love the new series. I would add Daniel Kaluuya in Get Out and Michael B Jordan in Black Panther. For Kaluuya, it is not the biggest snub since he is my favorite supporting actor, an Oscar winner in the post 2000s, but still. For MBJ it is. He could also get for Creed. One of the best actors of the new generation.Oh and this year Claire Foy in Women Talking. Chills. I can't believe how she wasn't in the supporting actress race.
@Davidjimv Kaluuya (sic) did get the nomination for Get Out, but only because the Academy dropped Kevin Spacey from the slate. But I agree overall that horror is SUCH an overlooked genre where actors give great performances. It's also a proving ground for the likes of Patricia Arquette (Elm Street #3), Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey (who were both in the same TX Chainsaw Massacre film) just to name a few.
Hereditary is brilliant. Hard to watch doesn't stop war movies for being nominated every couple of years. Saving Private Ryan the first 15 minutes was harder to watch than most horror movies.
Vikander’s work in Danish Girl gets so much shit because of the Ex-machina love but she did beautiful work in Danish Girl. Yes, it may have been “typical” but not undeserving. I will die on that hill.
Not really, it gets shit because it’s category fraud. She is 100% not supporting in the film, she’s definitely a co-lead to Redmayne. She has damn near as much screen time as he did. Same with Rooney Mara in Carol that year.
@@poett8875 yeah, I'm over the whole category fraud thing. I don't care so much about where a performance is honored as much as whether or not the quality of the performance is even worth honoring.
I've always respected your reviews Bryan. I agree with you 90% of the time. It's because you give such in-depth analysis that I haven't even thought of myself. But this vid is something I truly truly 100% agree! Toni Collette and Amy Adams, I felt those performances. And much to my dismay come Oscar's nomination when they weren't announced. Hopefully Adams win soon and at least a nomination for Collette also. Another runner-up maybe is Emily Blunt. She had good performances recently yet still no nominations. Her stint on A Quiet Place should have given her a nom among others.
Briaaaaaannnnnn!!!!! If you were here id hug you then invite you to a drinking sesh where all we talk about are movies!!! Love from the Philippines!!!❤❤❤❤
Gyllenhaal was better than everyone else nominated that year in the Best Actor category. He should have WON and he didn't even get nominated. Truly infuriating.
Jake's a terrible actor, Razzies are the only awards he deserves to get.
Absolutely not.
That year was strong.
I loved each and every performance starting from Eddie as Hawking, Keaton’s Birdman to Steve Carrell’s terrific take on the psychotic coach, Bradley’s Sniper and ofc the flawless Cumberbatch….
If Jake does this 1 year later he easily should have won either.
@@arontamas5639 I agree that the majority of the performances were great. Gyllenhall was better.
You can’t compare performances
But Micheal Keaton was great in Birdman I thought
Hard disagree. He's one of those actors I cannot take seriously because you can ALWAYS see the wheels spinning.
Toni Collette’s “Hereditary” is THE PERFORMANCE OF THE DECADE! She was phenomenal! This is the “Sophie’s Choice” performance of this generation.
She should’ve being nominated and won. It’s ridiculous!
Agreed!!
Indeed! It’s truly a once in a lifetime performance. She was robbed!
Just watching her in the clips are intense. Got the chills just like the first time I saw the movie.
They always hate on horror movies. It's a shame too. There're a lot of great horror movie performances that never get the credit they deserve.
Scale it back now.
Toni Collette for Hereditary should be the biggest Oscar snub of all time IMO, it was criminal how she wasn’t even acknowledged!
I’d also add Tilda Swinton for We Need to Talk about Kevin, Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers, Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattison for The Lighthouse, Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems, and Awkwafina for the Farewell.
Great picks!
Toni Collette missing a Best Actress nomination for her spectacular job in Hereditary has got to be the most frustrating, sad, and unbelievable thing to happen at the Oscars in recent years. It's even worse than Denis Villeneuve missing his nomination for Dune.
As with every snub it's always important to think about it in context. In other words, if you put someone in you have to take someone out of the eventual nominees list. I'm happy to see you talked about who should've been replaced in many of your choices. Another great video!!
It’s not really unbelievable. The academy is always biased against horror films. “Get out” I think is the only recent horror film that was able to overcome that.
@@poett8875 I always thought JoBeth Williams deserved a nomination for her work in Poltergeist. It's always been that way, sadly. :-(
Right?! There was most definitely a huge vocal crowd that was upset over her not getting recognized. I feel like her performance and that movie kind of reinvigorated the conversation about horror movies never being recognized by the academy.
Yay, thank you, Jonathan!
@@TheAwardsContender Will you make more snubs video's?
Toni Collette 100% agree. One of the most underated Aussie actors
Love her!
Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia deserved an honorable mention
Just saw that movie for the 1st time. As great as Kirstin was, I thought Charlotte Gainsbourg was every bit her equal. Powerhouse performances!
I agree 100% on Toni Collette. What happened there? She is crazy talented and under appreciated. That was one of the best performances of all time!
Agreed!
Completely agree. Toni Collete in Hereditary will go down as the biggest snub in history. She is astounding in that movie. Just minutes of her grief performance alone when she’s sobbing. I was floored. The genre bias really is egregious b/c Lupita in Us was also an incredible performance
Agreed!!
Jake Gyllenhall in Nightcrawler is a magnificent performance, Oscar worthy . Never been better .
I’m so glad that you used my suggestion!!!
My Original list:
My list
1: Amy Adam’s (Arrival)
2: Mila Kunis (Black Swan)
3: Andrew Garfield (The Social Network)
4: Miles Teller (Whiplash)
5: Toni Collete (Hereditary)
6: Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street/Babylon)
7: Taraji P Henson (Hidden Figures)
8: Lupita N’yongo (Us)
9: Diego Calva (Babylon)
10: Jake gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler)
Yeah Taraji should’ve totally gotten a nomination for Best Actress!
omg Miles Teller for whiplash is such a good one! Sooo overlooked he was amazing
Great picks!
Yaaaaas to Number 2
Taraji was ROBBED
The fact that Collette and Gyllenhall only have one academy award nomination each really is shocking to me they're two of my favorites, and the fact that Amy Adams hasn't won yet really gets to me. The movie you mentioned for each of their snubs are movies I'm a huge fan of.
One performance that is incredibly underrated and is absolutely worth a nomination is Leo DiCaprio in Shutter Island. The movie itself was pushed back from a fall to a February release date and it was overshadowed by Inception, being another psychological Leo starring movie of 2010, but his performance in it is literally perfect. The dream sequences and the scene towards the end at the lake are haunting mainly because he sells it so well.
Another one for best actor that I remember being upset about was JGL in 50/50. It's funny because that movie is rather personal to me in that I had a close family member get diagnosed less than two months after it was released but he sells the despair and hopelessness a cancer diagnosis so well.
Great picks!
From the outside you can say how someone Adams hasn't won yet. But then you see who won each year and it's comprenhensible. And that happens very often. Last year was shameful though.
Tilda Swinton - We need to talk about Kevin
Emma Thompson - Saving Mr Banks
Toni Collette - Hereditary
Taraji P Hennson - Hidden Figures
Delroy Lindo - Da 5 Bloods
Emily Blunt - A quiet place
Williem Defoe - The Lighthouse
Ann Dowd - Mass
Song Kang-ho - Parasite
Hilary Swank - Conviction
Nicole Kidman - Detroyer
John Goodman - 10 Cloverfield Lane
Aisling Franciosi - The Nightingale
All to name a few
Love these!
Yeah someone remembered Aisling franciosi. She was breathtaking in the Nightingale!
Great list!!! I wanna add:
Emily Blunt - A Quiet Place and Mary Poppins
Tilda Swinton - We Need To Talk About Kevin
Jacob Tremblay - Room
Jennifer Lopez - Hustlers
Anyone from Parasite, esp Song Kang Ho (Dad) and Park So Dam (daughter)
Good picks!
Great picks, except Lopez
Mine is definitely Toni Collette for Hereditary, such an amazing performance, The Academy should really start considering horror on The same level as other genres, same thing happened with Mia Goth for Pearl, which was very much deserving as well, Its kinda crazy to think that The last real best actress winner for a horror movie was Jodie Foster in The 90’s
So true!! Horror shouldn’t be tossed aside!
In my Oscars snubs Danielle Deadwyler for Till is one I still haven't figured out and another one is Emma Thompson for Saving Mr. Banks , her performance in that film is brilliant and heartbreaking at the same time. She was getting nominated for almost everything that year. I wish that the Oscar 5 for best actress for this year could had the Sag 5. I love The Danish girl and Alicia Vikander is great in it and if she could had been nominated for best actress for both Ex Machina and The Danish Girl in the same year like they used to do back in the early days of the Oscars
Thanks for watching!
Toni Collette is for me the number 1 Snub in recent years (Hereditary). Amy Adams is a strong second, because she didn’t have only one but TWO great performances in Arrival AND Nocturnal Animals. 3rd is Tilda Swinton for We need to talk about Kevin. This year, definitely Danielle Deadwyler !
All great performances!
So happy to see Julie Delpy on your list! I think she was robbed for Sunset and Midnight. Such beautiful performances.
I love her so much!
happy to see Song Kang Ho make it in, Parasite is still probably my favorite Oscar winner in recent memory!! i wonder if he could've taken on Brad Pitt in supporting that year because there was so much love for Pitt and i think this was OUATIH's only win that night, but if 2023 proved anything its that the academy doesn't care about consolation prizes so a Song Kang Ho win could have been totally possible imo if the campaign and the nom were there
Thanks for watching!
Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood also won an Oscar for Best Production Design.
Essie Davis for the Babadook! She was incredible and received a handful of critics and festival noms for her performance. But the film never gained awards traction since it was horror :/
YES, great pick!
My number one is Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems. I can’t believe he was overlooked. I know that movie was either loved or hated, very divisive, but he was phenomenal!
Ooooh, good one!
That year it was stacked. Have you seen the nominees? Phoenix for Joker, Banderas for Pain and Glory, Driver for Marriage Story, DiCaprio fro OUATIH and Steven Price for The Two Popes.
And the ones that got left out as well? Kang-ho for Parasites, Bale for FvF, Eagerton in Rocketman, Dafoe and Pattinson in The Lighthouse, DeNiro for The Irishman, Mackay for 1917, Pitt for Ad Astra.
And then two "supporting" performances that could well have been leading and be nominated, Pitt for OUATIH and Pacino for The Irishman.
Overlooking Mr. Sandler in that film is unforgivable!!!
Adam should have been nominated and I would have added Eric Bogosian for Best Supporting Actor
James McAvoy for SPLIT. I walked out of that movie flabbergasted by his performance. Haven’t watched the Oscars since…
GREAT performance!
My list:
1. Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler)
2. Amy Adams (Arrival)
3. Toni Collete (Hereditary)
4. Lupita Nyong'o (Us)
5. Danielle Deadwyler (Till)
6. Timothée Chalamet (Beautiful Boy)
7. Andrew Garfield (The Social Network)
8. Tilda Swinton (We need to talk about Kevin)
9. Lady Gaga (House of Gucci)
10. Taron Edgerton (Rocketman)
Honorable mentions:
Lucas Hedges (Boy Erased)
Taraji P. Henson (Hidden Figures)
Leonardo DiCaprio (Djiango Unchained)
Emma Thompson (Saving Mr. Banks)
Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse)
Jacob Tremblay (Room)
Michael Fassbender (Shame)
Great picks!
Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!! Your list is amazing! I can't agree with you more!!
Nodding in agreement the whole way through, but in the back of my mind I’m thinking “Brian’s not gonna leave off Toni”. You did our girl proud ❤
I was thinking about it too 🤭
Oh yes, I was never forgetting her!
Love this new series and those are some great picks. Other personal snubs I'd include are:
Delroy Lindo for Da 5 Bloods
David Oyelowo for Selma
Jessica Chastain for Molly's Game
Shailene Woodley for The Descendants
Nicolas Cage for Pig
Mia Goth for Pearl
Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems
Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers
Tom Hanks for Captain Phillips
Margot Robbie for Wolf of Wall Street
Lots to talk about for sure!!
So many great choices! Those Toni Colette, Lupita Nyongo, Danielle Deadwyler, and Amy Adams snubs still hurt! Especially since Amy got snubbed for her best performance! Agreed with Parasite for Song Kang Ho too. I would also add Ethan Hawke for First Reformed & Jennifer Lopez for Hustlers (her best performance since Selena & Out Of Sight, though I always knew the BAFTA snub, her tabloid persona, and mixed filmography would have set her back). Great top 10 list & a very creative presentation too!
Thank you so much!

Excellent picks!!
You almost got me there! I really thought for a second that you'd forgot to include Toni Collete's performance in Hereditary. I absolutely agree in all levels that she should've been nominated for this role. She's magnificent
She is amazing!
My Top 5 Oscar Snubs ever since 2010:
1. Jake Gyllenhaal- Nightcrawler (Still makes me upset to this day that he got snubbed, just an exceptional and committed career best performance from him.)
2. Amy Adams - Arrival
3. Tom Hanks - Captain Phillips
4. Andrew Garfield - The Social Network
5. Taron Egerton - Rocketman (He did an incredible job playing Elton John from his singing and emotions. I thought he was way better than Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.)
Honorable Mentions:
Willem Dafoe - The Lighthouse
Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems
Lupita Nyong’o- Us
Awkwafina - The Farewell
Caitroina Balfe - Belfast
Leonardo DiCaprio- Django Unchained (That skull scene alone should’ve gotten him nominated.)
Claire Foy - First Man
Elsie Fisher - Eighth Grade
Charlize Theron - Mad Max: Fury Road (I would replace Jennifer Lawrence in Joy with Theron that year.)
Albert Brooks - Drive
Great picks!
Great list! I would also add Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia, Kate Winslet in Ammonite, Jennifer Aniston in Cake and Emily Blunt in Sicario or A Quiet Place.
Yes, love these picks!
Yes to all 4!
Jennifer Aniston not being nominated for Cake was a shock.
I agree with Kirsten Dunst 💯!!
Thank you for another great video! I’m surprised you didn’t mention Hong Chau for “Downsizing,” despite being nominated for a ton of precursors that year. But perhaps it’s because “Downsizing” was not a well received film in general. Perhaps one day you can create a video how the academy tends to snub AAPI performances in general? You mentioned Song Kang-Ho, and it’s nice seeing Youn Yuh-Jung, Steven Yeun, and of course Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yeoh as of late, but some names that come to my mind that had buzz were Tsai Chin (Joy Luck Club), Awkwafina (The Farewell), Zhao Suh-Zhen (The Farewell), and THE ABSOLUTE WORST Zhang Ziyi for “Memoirs of Geisha,” who was nominated for every precursor and was so blatantly snubbed by the Academy!
Hong Chau is a goddess! She ate in The Menu too. Dolly De Leon (TOS), Gong Li (Memoirs), Michelle Yeoh (CTHD) and Maggie Cheung (Hero), Kim Hye-ja (Mother) snubs reek of bias.
At least Hong Chau was finally nominated this year for The Whale
Great picks!
Great list. The only one I would have mentioned was Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia however we all know she didn't get a nomination because of that train wreck of a press converse lmao. If your doing a 00s list for the snubbed acting categories I would suggest Naomi Watts (Mulholland drive) and Bjork (dance in the dark)
Yes, good point!
parasite ladies should’ve filled the best supporting actress category. It would’ve been better over whatever they nominated.
That would’ve been awesome!
Oh my gosh, this is one of my favorite topics to talk about. I agree with ALL of these so hard (I haven’t seen Before Midnight or Drive but I’m sure you’re right).
For Mass, Martha Plimpton is who really tore my heart out but as you said, everyone deserved the nom, as did the movie.
Toni was the obvious number one so I knew you’d come through there. Also SO happy to hear shoutouts for Andrew in Social Network.
My additions would be Awkwafina in The Farewell (simply incredible performance by a usually comedic actor) and, from the same year, Willem Dafoe in The Lighthouse (weird ass movie that I didn’t even love but I feel like his performance is undeniably awards-worthy).
You continue to deliver!!!
Yay, glad you enjoyed it!!
Thank you for naming Julie Delpy. She was near perfection on Midnight.
One I think who deserved an Oscar nom is Ralph Fiennes at The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Toni Collette was absolutely robbed.
She’s so great!!
There’s plenty in mind that I can think of…
•Toni Collete - Hereditary
•Michael B Jordan - Black Panther
•Lupita Nyong’o - Us
•Jennifer Lopez - Hustlers
•Jason Mitchell - Straight Outta Compton
•Awkwafina - The Farewell
•Taron Egerton - Rocketman
•Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems
•Jacob Tremblay - Room
•Taraji P. Henson - Hidden Figures
•Janelle Monáe - Glass Onion
•Emily Blunt - A Quiet Place
Yes, excellent picks!
I'm glad you mentioned Ex-Machina because I still think Oscar Isaac deserved a Best Supporting Actor nomination. He was incredible in that movie with a very dynamic performance.
Yes, he was snubbed as well!
-For Nightcrawler Rene Russo and Jake Gyllenhaal..... especially Jake..... but that year was so strong with such great nominees......
-Matthew McConaughey for Interstellar
-Amy Adams for Arrival (Best actress) and Nocturnal animals (Best supporting Actress)
-Jessica Chastain for Miss Sloane
-Ray Liotta for Marriage story
-Toni Collette and Alex Wolff for Hereditary
-Florence Pugh for Midsommar
-Lupita Nyongo for Us
-Anya Taylor Joy for VVitch
-Sam Rockwell for JoJo Rabit or/and Richard Jewell
-Emma Stone for Cruella (that monologue OMG!!)
-Ryan Gosling for Blue valentine
-Hailee Steinfeld for Edge of seventeen
-Alicia Vikander for Ex machina and Light between the oceans
-Rooney Mara for Una.
-Cameron Diaz for Counselor (honestly her darkest role ever played brilliantly but the whole script was so messy....)
-Andrew Garfield for Social network and/or Never let me go
-Carey Mulligan and Keira Knightley for Never let me go
-Keira Knightley for Anna Karenina
-Anna Paquin for Margaret
-Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg for Melancholia
Kirsten Dunst not being nominated for Melancholia is one of the snubs I remember being really upset about at the time, and it still annoys me. She was so wonderful in it. I also wish Never Let Me Go got more attention as while I can understand the film is not for everyone as it's quite melodramatic in tone (which I like but not everyone does) the performances are stellar and really elevate it. Possibly they just didn't know who to pick, but Keira Knightley would be my top choice. And with all the very correct outrage for Toni Collette not being nominated, it's also baffling to me that Alex Wolff wasn't in there either, he gave a unique and extremely effective performance that stays with me well after the film is over. When he dissociates in the car and afterward it feels completely real.
Love these, thanks!
10. Andrew Garfield, The Social Network
9. Albert Brooks, Drive
8. Margot Robbie, Babylon
7. Toni Collette, Hereditary
6. Rosamund Pike, I care a lot

2. Hugh Jackman, Prisoners
1. Jake Gyllenhaal, Nightcrawler
Great picks
@@TheAwardsContender thanks 👍
Besides the ones you've included on your list I believe these performances also deserve a shout: David Oyelowo (Selma), Ethan Hawke (First Reformed), Adam Sandler (Uncut Gems), Willem Defoe (The Lighthouse), Delroy Lindo (Da 5 Bloods), Florence Pugh (Midsommar), Ryan Gosling (Blue Valentine), James Franco (The Disaster Artist), Mads Mikkelsen (Another Round/The Hunt), Elsie Fisher (Eight Grade), Marcello Fonte (Dogman), Tom Cruise (Rock of Ages), Dakota Johnson (Cha Cha Real Smooth)
Great picks!
Great video as always. Totally agree about Hereditary and Nightcrawler’s acting performances.
Thanks so much!
I 100% agree with you about Albert Brooks. I always thought of him as a comedic actor and for him to play the villain so well in Drive, it really blew me away.
Toni Collette should have a handful of Oscar nominations- i think she’s one of our best actresses and should very well be named an Oscar Winner
Andrew Garfield was my favorite thing about The Social Network.
Ann Dowd is amazing in everything she's in.
Albert Brooks in Drive is brilliant.
Also A Most Violent Year.
Oscar Isaac needs an Oscar. Ex Machina to start. Drive. A Most Violent Year ,Dune,Star Wars.. among others .
Agreed!
Love to see Toni, Danielle, Lupita, Ann and Jake in this list
I would give also a nod yo Robert Pattinson for Good Time
William Dafoe for The Lighthouse
Patrick Stewart for Logan
Mike Faist for West SIDE Story
Catriona Balfe and Jamie Dornan for Belfast
Anthony Ramos for In the Heights
And the one that i think should have won her category but wasnt nominated is Olga Mereditz for In the Heights
This is my list:
Michael Fassbender, Shame
Matthew McC, Killer Joe
Jake Gyllenhaal, Nightcrawler
Amy Adams, Arrival
Toni Collette, Hereditary
Lupita Nyong'o, Us
Killer Joe is so damn underrated. I love that movie. 😂 Matthew M had a couple of really good movies that he should’ve been nominated for. Mud would be another one.
Great picks!
I would have included Jacob Tremblay for "Room". The scene where his character sees the world for the first time gets me every time and I think he should have been recognized for that superb - super mature - work!
It’s crazy to think there may not have been much enthusiasm for Till when Danielle WAS Till. Her performance is everything in that movie and was truly handed to the academy on a silver platter. Just egregious. I do wonder if it were in 6th or 7th place. In that case, since BP gets 10 slots, why not increase the acting slots? At least by one or two.
If Riseborough not the twitter acting marketing campaign had was Deadwyler nominated!
Not really. Black people didn't even like Till. They were so sick and tired of the characture of the broken black mother stereotypes. That's what Deadwyler played, if you saw Mamie irl she was nothing like Deadwyler played, that's why they embraced Woman King because it got to see Black women kicking butt and being awesome.
@@SoulKnightKing But, The Woman King was not even in costumes nominated. And Till would be here. And Robbie & Lawrence were absolutely not nr. 6
@harmenmoes9138 Gina Prince was critics choice and bafta nominated. Let's be real the woman King shoulda gotten anywhere upto 10 noms
1. Picture
2. Director
3. Actress
4. Supporting Actress
5. Score
6. Editing
7. Costumes
8. Hair and Make Up
9. Production Design
10. Song
@@SoulKnightKing The Woman King deserved alone an costume nom
Michael Fassbinder is absolutely my #1 pick. He’s absolutely amazing.
Love his performance!
Great list I'd add Adam Sandler for Uncut Gems and Jason Mitchell for Straight Outta Compton personally
Good picks!
I completely agree with you about Collette, Adams, Gyllenhaal (Rene Russo deserved one too), Dowd (and everyone in the cast) and N'yongo. I get disappointed as well in some of the choices, but I always justify it by feeling the voting is so close and one or two votes could knock them out of contention. Deadwyler should have been in as well, but I just don't get Michelle Williams at all (found her performance over the top hammy like the movie) and, if anything, she should have been supporting.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
I loved Lupita in US. I also think Jennifer Hudson gave the best performance of 2021. To this day, Lupita and Jennifer are the only black actresses who scored Leading And Supporting nods from SAG (apart from Viola). But the Academy chose safed options. I do think if Jennifer was submitted in Musical/ Comedy she woulda won the Globe over Rachel Zegler
Good picks!
I LOVE Elizabeth Moss!!! And I'm going to check out The Invisible Man, since you said Moss gave an Oscar-caliber performance!I respect your opinion!
Yay, love her so much!
Mia Goth in Pearl is unreal... I hope she plays Shelley D in a biopic in X she was totally serving 3 Woman
Which btw 3 woman Shelly should have been nominated and sissy
Mia Goth deserves to be on this list
Yes!!
@@TheAwardsContender she’s amazing
A new series, lucky us! Your videos are so cleverly and amusing written, and your presentation is charming and compelling. This video was a pleasure to watch, and you're so right, Gyllenhaal and especially the chimeric Toni Collette deserved more recognition for their roles.
Yay, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I looked up Mass after watching your video because your description intrigued me. I adore both Ann Dowd and Martha Plimpton, so seeing that they did a film together is super exciting!
One note though, the Wikipedia page for Mass says it premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. IMDB also has it dated 2021.
James McAvoy in Split. The dude just goes for it and gives what I think is the best performance of his career. Everybody knows that he should have at least been nominated.
I don't fully agree with Andrew Garfield. To be honest, for me, both of the main performances in The Social Network: Jesse as Zuckerberg, and Andrew as his friend, were not Oscar-worthy at all, and quite bland. But out of the two, Andrew was def the better one. Maybe he could have gotten in the place of Mark Ruffalo because Ruffallo's role in The Kids Are All Right wasn't an amazing one either, and it could be argued that Garfield's one was better. That is all as the nominations go in this category in 2011, but the supporting actor winner that year was absolutely spot on: Christian Bale in The Fighter is a masterpiece of a performance. He was better Dicky than Dicky!
Nah bruh you were watching the anti social network😂
Jake Gyllenhaal and Toni Collette snubs still infuriate me..... It's absolutely baffling that they didn't even get nominated
Toni Collette gave THE horror movie performance of our time.
I know, right?
The fact Drive 2011 didn’t get a best picture nomination meanwhile “Extremely loud & Incredibly close” somehow managed to sneak in. Probably one of the worst best picture nominees.
Yes, Drive should’ve done better at the Oscars!
Love this list! One performance I would love to add (in my humble opinion) is Mia Goth in Pearl. Her performance was so dynamic I was absolutely glued to the screen. I wish horror films were recognized more in general, some amazing films over the past decade that fly completely under the radar. Honorable mentions to Naomi Watts in Mulholland Drive, Laura Dern in Inland Empire, and Sheryl Lee in Fire Walk with Me (as you can see I love Lynch)
Thank you!!
i casually watched some of your other videos about acting awards and always wondered, if there might be one about missed oscar nominations and whether toni colette would be on it. abd lo and behold there is a video, AND SHE'S NUMBER ONE! i think about her incredible performance on a regular basis for years now, and how she deserved so much recognition for this stellar showing.
Great video - and I agree with you wholeheartedly especially about Toni Collette. Funnily enough when you were talking about horror movie bias I immediately thought of Toni and then there it was as your no. 1 snub. Agreed. It's ridiculous about the whole horror movie bias - it's an intense and emotive genre when done right but there are those, and I bet they are in the award show members that equate horror with slasher so it's immediately dismissed. What a shame. She is phenomenal in it and it's baffling how she was overlooked. You frequently mention good performances in so-so movies or movies that weren't popular. They cannot seem to separate the performance from the movie itself. And isn't the performance what they should be focusing on? My own personal outrage at Oscar snubs is Leslie Manville for Another Year - one of the most heart-breaking performances I have ever seen - the best portrayal of depression put on screen and apart from a Bafta nomination and some others, she was hideously overlooked.
Manville is amazing!! Thanks for your informative comment!
Omggggg i am soooo happy you included Alicia for Ex-Machina!! I remember watching that movie and just being in awe of what she was able to achieve. I actually love the movie overall and believe it is a hidden gem most have never even heard of. But yeah she was pretty remarkable.
came across you, in several posts previous to this.. that I've watched in *3* days.. like you lots! 😊 Thank you!! ❤
I agree Danielle Deadwyler should have been nominated but I’m positive she’ll be back in the Oscars race as it was announced she’ll be in the film adaptation of The Piano Lesson. This is an August Wilson play and Viola Davis is known for getting Oscar nominations for his work. So….🙏🙏🙏🙏
There's a lot of good buzz for that film especially because of the play which is in contention at the Tonys this year. She might finally get recognition for that film hopefully, it has a strong ensemble of actors too.
Fingers crossed!!
I really liked this video. Next time you do one can you also refresh our memory with what year each snub was as well as the other actors who were nominated? Just a suggestion, keep up the good work!
Will factor this in when I make future videos in this series!

Honestly incredible picks, and I agree 100% with the top 10, especially the top 4 and most importantly Top 1, yeah, Toni’s performance is a once in a lifetime , how she portrait grief from a very human and real way, and part of why the movie is so draining and oppressive is because u FEEL what she’s feeling, is like the same feeling of going to a funeral in real life and seen the screams, the pain, it was all to real and she was by far the best acting that year, hell is one of the best performances I seen in my life, top 5 one
Agreed, thanks for watching!
Shame is one of my all time favorite movies, and I often feel like I'm the only one who's seen it. It's so powerful and hauntingly beautiful but also tragic and Michael Fassbender gives the performance of a lifetime. He's one of my top favorite actors, so thank you for mentioning him 💜
They really need to add a Best Horror category to the Oscars line-up. Agreed with your entire list.
Just found your Chanel love you mentioning brooks in drive that movie overall is so underrated honestly one of my favorite films of the last decade and i don't see nobody mention it
The Top 5 Acting Oscar Snubs from the 2010's that you left out
Adam Sandler (Uncut Gems)
Taraji P. Henson (Hidden Figures)
Emma Thompson (Saving Mr. Banks)
Tom Hanks (Captain Phillips)
Tilda Swinton (We Need To Talk About Kevin)
Good picks!
Leslie Manville in Another Year is my number 1 snub. It's one of my favorite performances. So nuanced, funny, and depressing. Of course, Mike Leigh films don't get the recognition they deserve, but with a Best Original Screenplay nomination that year, she deserved a nomination. She got one for Phantom Thread, but she's better in Another Year.
My #2 is Ben Foster not getting nominated for Hell or High Water. Bridges was good, but that was Foster's film. He deserved a nomination for Leave No Trace as well.
#3 for me would be Joel Edgerton in Loving. It's such an understated role, totally lacking glamor and flash, but the subtle nuances and the way he just inhabits the role is really something. Negga was just as good and got a nomination.
Ben Foster by this point is insanely overdue for Oscar recognition, he's constantly been putting out amazing but underrated work. I hope he gets the Sam Rockwell treatment.
@@navidhudson7065 I've been a fan of Foster since Six Feet Under. I knew he was a special talent back then. I also loved his work in Galveston.
Rockwell was long overdue too. Foster had never really had that great role that broke out into the public eye until Hell or High Water was a big success. Hopefully he will get another great role that plenty of people see.
@@MattrickBT Yeah I first saw him in the teen flick Get Over It and it's insane how far he's come ever since. He definitely got more notices after Hell or High Water, this year he was overlooked for that Will Smith drama Emancipation which he seemed like a contender at one point. Hopefully his Oscars chance will come closer.
Love your picks!
Yes, this list is perfect! I'd say the cast of "Mass" had an uphill battle especially the cast members would be considered Supporting but both Dowd and Plimpton wete astonishing. With lesser actresses they would have been one note performances! Also, you left out Lily Tomlin in "Grandma" she was campaigned in Supporting but she was the title character and in every scene in the film and should have received a lead nomination!
Love Tomlin!
Yes easily Tomlin over Lawrence that year.
I will never get over Toni Collette snub..,, ever 😢
So frustrating!!
You know who should be of diego calva for babylon his performance in babylon was so good, marvelous performance. I wish that nominations him
Yes, good pick!
Thanks
Totally agree with you about Toni Collette. Spectacular performance!!
Love her in Hereditary!
One I never see get brought up is Daniel Bruhl in Rush. It’s a very calculated performance where Bruhl is basically expected to play a real-life person as a borderline sociopath, but he absolutely nailed it - and got nominated at both the Golden Globes and the BAFTAs for it. But the film ended up going empty-handed on Oscar night.
Yes, good one!
Till is a great film. It is a history film and Danielle Deadwyler deserved an Oscar win for her brilliant performance in Till.
Agreed!
But that Best Actress race this year was between Cate Blanchett and Michelle Yeoh with Yeoh ultimately winning the Oscar.
I absolutely agree with your picks, especially Toni Collette, Lupita Nyong'o and Jake Gyllenhaal. Others that I think should have been nominated as well include Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin), Jeremy Renner (Wind River), Mia Goth (Pearl), and Patton Oswalt (Young Adult).
Good ones!
I totally agree with you on your #1 snub. It pissed me off too.
It’s such a spellbinding performance!
I met Alicia Vikander at a party shortly after her Oscar win. And I congratulated her for the Oscar, but said "You were great, but you actually deserved an Oscar for Ex Machina instead."
Vikander is for the record very friendly, extremely humble and has no diva antics whatsoever.
Haha, that’s so funny!
@@TheAwardsContender She took it well, whereas her PR manager was shocked. But she was super friendly, too. Did not see the convo taking that turn, though, but was happy to hear that someone actually had seen "Ex Machina".
Can we get a video on Toni Collette please? I feel like she should have many more Oscar nominations by now
Will definitely get to that one!
🎬You hit the nail on the head with your commentary across the board.
Aww, thanks!
Thank you for mentioning Julie Delpy in this video. She is often overlooked but she is a brilliant actress who has a natural gift. She is so good that it does not seem like she is acting. What a great talent!
Don't Forget Benicio Del Toro's role in Sicario. His acting in the 3rd act was the best.
My number one snub of the 2010s is Taraji P. Henson for Hidden Figures. Her performance as Katherine was astounding, and I've never understood how the Academy could snub her, especially seeing how Octavia Spencer got nominated for the same movie.
Michael Fassbender is excellent in Shame.
Great video. Love the new series. I would add Daniel Kaluuya in Get Out and Michael B Jordan in Black Panther. For Kaluuya, it is not the biggest snub since he is my favorite supporting actor, an Oscar winner in the post 2000s, but still. For MBJ it is. He could also get for Creed. One of the best actors of the new generation.Oh and this year Claire Foy in Women Talking. Chills. I can't believe how she wasn't in the supporting actress race.
Daniel Kalooya was nominated for Get Out
Glad you enjoyed it!
@Davidjimv Kaluuya (sic) did get the nomination for Get Out, but only because the Academy dropped Kevin Spacey from the slate.
But I agree overall that horror is SUCH an overlooked genre where actors give great performances. It's also a proving ground for the likes of Patricia Arquette (Elm Street #3), Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey (who were both in the same TX Chainsaw Massacre film) just to name a few.
Hereditary is brilliant. Hard to watch doesn't stop war movies for being nominated every couple of years. Saving Private Ryan the first 15 minutes was harder to watch than most horror movies.
Yes, agreed!
Vikander’s work in Danish Girl gets so much shit because of the Ex-machina love but she did beautiful work in Danish Girl. Yes, it may have been “typical” but not undeserving. I will die on that hill.
I agree with you on that one
Not really, it gets shit because it’s category fraud. She is 100% not supporting in the film, she’s definitely a co-lead to Redmayne. She has damn near as much screen time as he did. Same with Rooney Mara in Carol that year.
Fair enough!
@@poett8875 yeah, I'm over the whole category fraud thing. I don't care so much about where a performance is honored as much as whether or not the quality of the performance is even worth honoring.
I've always respected your reviews Bryan. I agree with you 90% of the time. It's because you give such in-depth analysis that I haven't even thought of myself. But this vid is something I truly truly 100% agree! Toni Collette and Amy Adams, I felt those performances. And much to my dismay come Oscar's nomination when they weren't announced. Hopefully Adams win soon and at least a nomination for Collette also.
Another runner-up maybe is Emily Blunt. She had good performances recently yet still no nominations. Her stint on A Quiet Place should have given her a nom among others.
He spells his first name Brian.
Thanks for your kind words!!
Briaaaaaannnnnn!!!!! If you were here id hug you then invite you to a drinking sesh where all we talk about are movies!!! Love from the Philippines!!!❤❤❤❤
Aww, you’re so sweet! Glad you enjoyed the video!

Yes!!!
