Ten Shocking Omissions from the 2025 Oscar Nominations | Festivals & Awards | Roger Ebert
Briefly

The Oscar nominations this year featured a mix of predictable and surprising snubs. Hosted by Bowen Yang and Rachel Sennott, the announcements recognized nominees, some of whom were inaccurately omitted. Notable exclusions included Marianne Jean-Baptiste, who received critical acclaim yet garnered no nomination attention. Other expected snubs were observed, leaving many fans disappointed. Despite the Academy's choices, the article emphasizes the enduring nature of beloved films, regardless of nominations, and suggests a lack of engagement from voters due to external factors like the Los Angeles wildfires.
The biggest and most unfortunate snub of the day is Marianne Jean-Baptiste, who was awarded Best Actress from every major critics group in the country.
As always, there were surprises both good and bad; that's the way it goes when ten thousand people collectively vote based on their taste.
