WHEW, that’s a long list!

But we’re not finished just yet. Because there are some glaringly obvious snubs! Most obvious are for Wicked: For Good! While Cynthia and Ariana managed to snag Lead and Supporting Actress noms respectively, the film was not nominated for Best Picture. Instead, it was relegated to the Box Office Achievement category — and director Jon M. Chu was completely left off the list!

Speaking of Box Office Achievement, Superman, A Minecraft Movie, and Lilo & Stitch — the only billion dollar film of 2025 — were completely shut out.

There was also no room for Jay Kelly in the Best Motion Picture category, despite multiple actor noms, and NOTHING for Jennifer Lopez’s Kiss of the Spider Woman, Sydney Sweeney’s Christy, the Bradley Cooper-directed Is This Thing On?, or anything for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, Roofman, and A House of Dynamite… and MUCH of the Sinner’s cast was shut out!

As for TV, The Last of Us only managed to secure an acting nom, while The Gilded Age was nowhere to be seen.

So, what are YOUR thoughts?? Be sure to let us know in the comments down below!
