Oscars 2015: 24 Snubs That Bugged YOU

''THE LEGO MOVIE just got snubbed for Best Animated Feature. What the actual hell?''—Benjamin

''Everything is not Awesome.''—Rick

''The Lego Movie was a very fun movie. It was hilarious. My husband, and I took the kids and watched in the theater. My son who is autistic sat in his seat mesmerized which NEVER happens. It is the first time he has been able to stay seated. It made me laugh and cry. It had a great message. It truly was awesome and I am disappointed it was not nominated.''—Stormy

''The Lego Movie was smarter and better-written than most ''live'' movies. Boo. Rooting hard for the Studio Ghibli film now in light of that snub.''—WoopWoop

''The Lego Movie snub is insane. How on earth could they overlook the most technically impressive and entertaining animated movie of the last few years?''—Jeff

''How does The Lego Movie get snubbed for Animated Feature? (must be the Academy regarded it as a 90 minute commercial for a toy line)''—Pie Fighter

''The Lego Movie was one of the best films of 2014. It was funny, heart-warming, and original. Yet it doesn't get a Best Animated Film nomination?! Animation branch of the Academy, you are dead to me.''—Drew Shaw

''The Lego Movie was snubbed because it makes fun of big business. Hollywood = Big Business."—Christopher Thomas

''Can't believe The Lego Movie didn't make it. Really?!? How to Train Your Dragon 2? Being the mother of a 10 year old, I get dragged to animated kids movies all year long. HTYD2 was a SNORE—the first one was so much better. Big Hero 6 was okay, but I feel like that was just the obligatory Disney ''fill in the blank'' nomination. The Lego Movie was witty, surprising, and touching, besides having incredible animation. So disappointed—was looking forward to the acceptance speech by Lord/Miller as being an Oscar watch highlight.''—Red

''Jen Aniston just can't catch a break! She deserved that nom :(''—Laura

''Jen Aniston and David Oyelowo's snubs hurt the most.''—Rockyxx19

''No nomination for Jennifer Aniston in Cake. I'll still be there for you Jen, when the rain starts to fall.''—NicholasT

''It's a travesty that Aniston got snubbed. She gave the best performance of the year with no make up too. She should have won for The Good Girl. Maybe Jolie campaigned against her behind the scenes?''—Jason

''The omission that bothered me the most was Jennifer Aniston for Cake, and I'm not even a fan of hers. My girlfriend dragged me to that movie against my will but I was genuinely impressed with Jennifer's performance. I didn't even know she had it in her.''—The Big Cat

''No VFX for The Hobbit???''—Bill

''Wow Selma got snubbed big time. The thing that puzzles me, is that it's nominated for best picture, but not anything else?!?''—Niko P

''The Selma snubs are completely baffling. Sooo if it's apparently not the acting or the screenplay or the directing that made it good, what led it to being Best Picture material??''—Jeff

''Selma has a 99% critics approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the highest score for any film, Ava Duvernay should have been nominated as Best Director for Selma, David Oyelowo should have been nominated for giving one of the best performances of the year as Martin Luther King Jr. in Selma, Bradford Young should have been nominated for Best Cinematography for Selma, & Carmen Ejogo as Coretta Scott King should have been nominated as Best Supporting Actress. Academy, this just ain't right.''—JE

''Both David Oyelowo and Ralph Fiennes snubbed? Boo on you, Academy! Boo, I say!''—Matt

''I [am] very upset Ava Duvernay did not become the first African American woman nominated for Best Director for Selma and David Oyelowo received no nomination for Best Actor as MLK. How could David Oyelowo play Martin Luther King Jr. so perfectly, so powerfully, and not get a nomination for Best Actor? He did the best he could. No one could have played MLK better.''—JE

''I'm glad Bennett Miller is nominated for directing Foxcatcher, which is one of those films the Academy loves, but done in a smart and non-exploitative way. He's an extremely smart director. What I don't understand—but sort of expected—is Morten Tydlum getting Ava DuVernay's spot in that category?''—EAP

''No David Oyelowo? Bradley Cooper instead????? Love me some Cooper, but American Sniper does NOT deserve 6 noms! Including Best Actor. WTF.''—Ten

''David Oyelowo was as brilliant in Selma as Daniel Day Lewis was in Lincoln (and he was playing a man we have all heard speak). Whatever historical debate is with the script, that shouldn't have been taken out on his performance. Shameful.''—H.H.

''Ignoring Selma for the boring Foxcatcher in various categories (best director, best actor, best screenplay) is a travesty. David Oyelowo was astounding and was the best actor of the year. The only consolation is the shunning of the vastly overrated Gone Girl.''—Damarco4u

''Ava DuVernay somehow made a historical drama that wasn't preachy or overly sentimental. Selma is authentic and visceral and she deserved a directing nomination.''—Sexy Jessica

''Life Itself wasn't nominated? Very surprising!''—Fender

''Where the hell is Life itself or Jodorowsky's Dune for best documentary?! I'm speechless! I know some people might have hated Roger Ebert, but c'mon, at least throw Jodorowsky's Dune a bone! Leaving two of this year's BEST movies out for best documentary is unforgivable!''—Monty

''Life Itself was a surprise. But I think Roger would have just smiled and shrugged.''—Stevesfm

''My heart aches about the snub of Life Itself. There are no words except: "Why?''—vitorusso

''I think, besides the snubs of Jake [Gyllenhaal] and Nightcrawler and the great Snowpiercer, the biggest snub was no Life Itself for doc.''—Joe

''Jessica should have changed her name to Meryl Streep, and she could have had a chance.''—Taylor

''Lorde for ''Yellow Flicker Beat'' was also snubbed. It seemed like popular artists were left out, except for ''Glory,'' which should win.''—stevesfm

''I like Lorde too. ''Yellow Flicker Beat'' was awesome!''—JE

''The Oscars always make Best Song a snoozefest. Where's ''Yellow Flicker Beat''?''—Annabelle

''No Screenplay nomination for Gone Girl. Wow!''—Ashleigh

''The Gone Girl snub for screenplay adapt is CRAZY.''—sa21

''No Gone Girl for best adapted screenplay. No Ava for Selma. This year's Oscars brought to you by misogyny.''—Laura

''Where the f*ck is Gillian Flynn's nomination for adapting her novel Gone Girl???''—Jim

''Disheartening that there are no female writers nominated for the screenplay categories. I think the best should be nominated, male or female, but I just wish there were more films with female perspectives out there. Flynn's dark and funny Gone Girl really should have at least received a nomination.''—Annabelle

''Flynn for Adapted Screenplay for Gone Girl, as well as Fincher for the directing nod. Like with Affleck and Argo a couple of years ago, he managed to make the film suspenseful and surprising even if you knew what was going on/what was going to happen."—Bsquared41

''Nightcrawler not nominated for acting or film, biggest snub for me.''—Alex

''I've seen all of the performances from the Best Actor nominees and Jake Gyllenhaal hands down beats all of them for Nightcrawler.''—mayorchapstick

''No Jake Gyllenhaal for Nightcrawler is the very definition of a snub. He?s a force in that movie."—Brain Stew

''I don't know what else Gyllenhaal could have done to get an Oscar nom. His performance was insane.''—Bolo Tie

''Where are you Jake Gyllenhaal? NOOOOOOO!''—Shannon Ryan

''Bradley Cooper for MURICA: The Movie over Jake Gyllenhaal for Nightcrawler? BOOOOOOO. Awful, just awful.''—Jackson Smith

''WHERE IS JAKE GYLLENHAAL FOR NIGHTCRAWLER?! That is all.''—Nono

''I will remember Jake Gyllenhaal's performance for years! Can't say the same for a couple of the best actor nominees. What do I know.''—Matty

''No Force Majeure for best foreign movie?! Are you kidding me???????''—justjack

''Tilda got snubbed?! WTF! Dear Academy, does Meryl Streep really need to be nominated every time she steps in front of the camera?! It is really starting to get annoying and tedious.''—Anonymous Girl

''Tilda had SUCH an amazing year, I really would have liked to see her get nominated over Streep (no offense to her).''—Mik

''The Oscars seem to ignore Tilda even though she won for Michael Clayton in years past. I can recall three movies on the top of my head where she was worthy of a nomination before this year's snubs: Julia, We Need to Talk About Kevin, and I Am Love. Somehow the Academy seems to avoid Tilda's fine performances?''—Steve

''Oh, please—do NOT get me started. Snowpiercer was probably the freshest, most original take on sci-fi since the original Matrix, and because Weinstein didn't get his way when he told the director to cut it for its U.S. release, he buried it like last week's garbage. If it wasn't for the word-of-mouth it got, nobody would have seen it at all. Feh.''—WoopWoop

''Snowpiercer is a sci-fi masterpiece on the level of Blade Runner and Brazil.''—Gotham Rules

''Amy Adams, nooooooooo!!!! She is incredible!! Why, Oscar gods? WHY?!''—Laura

''Amy Adams won the golden globe for best actress and not even a nomination here? Weird.''—The Hills Are Alive

''No one was expecting Big Eyes to sweep the awards, but not even best actress and song?''—Gotham Rules

''No Interstellar??? not watching Oscars!!!!''—Isi

''Again I feel Interstellar was neglected...best movie of the year...no doubt!''—Jes Jensen

''Interstellar deserved a nomination for Best Cinematography, Best Director, and Best Picture. The cinematography is brilliant and Christopher Nolan deserved a nomination for his work. McConaughey, Hathaway and Chastain were also amazing in it.''—Omiros Antoniou

''Ralph Fiennes was really incredible and should also have been nominated.''—MayorChapstick

''and how about Ralph Fiennes?''—elMksY

''Biggest snub of all—no nomination for the brilliant performance of Ralph Fiennes in Grand Budapest Hotel. He was that movie.''—Scandibaby

''Why isn't anyone mentioning Ralph Fiennes snub? His performance carried the entire movie.''—Martin

''Big Eyes snubbed for Best Song.''—Cooperjack141

''SMH. Sia & Lana Del Rey did not get nominated for Best Song for ''Opportunity'' (Annie) & Big Eyes.''—GE

''What? No Clint Eastwood for Best Director of American Sniper! I am taking an empty chair to the screening tomorrow in protest!''—charris9876

''Whiplash for Best Pic over Wild?! I don't think so! Wild was, by far, my favorite movie of the year and is an incredibly moving story about love, loss, and resilience.''—TomC416

''Rough year for Trent Reznor.''—Jonfw2

''Still not over the Fincher and Ross/Reznor snubs. Ugh!''—Laura

''Under the Skin, one of the most critically praised science-fiction, limited release movies of the year was also snubbed. Not a surprise, but, it's still painful. Scarlett Johannson was excellent in the movie. The cinematography and music score also earned wonderful reviews.''—Another Poster

''Miles Teller? Did his nomination get lost in the mail????''—Bolo Tie

''The editing in Birdman was the BEST! What the heck?!''—Laura

''Apparently the people who voted thought Birdman actually was filmed in one take and didn't need any editing. :)''—Darrin13

''Did the voters think that there was no editing involved in Birdman?''—Jace Bradshaw
