It's quite difficult to care about this announcement when mourning the loss of Alan Rickman, but the 2016 Oscar nominations have been unveiled, and here's the full list (and some comments):
Best Picture
Brooklyn
I honestly though Star Wars and Carol would have got a nomination, but The Revenant is going to win anyway.
Best Actor in a Leading Role
Bryan Cranston - Trumbo
Matt Damon - The Martian
Leonardo DiCaprio - The Revenant
Michael Fassbender - Steve Jobs
Eddie Redmayne - The Danish Girl
Sweet, Michael Fassbender got his second nomination. Too bad for his this is DiCaprio's year. I feel like Michael B. Jordan is missing here.
Best Actress in a Leading Role
Cate Blanchett - Carol
Brie Larson - Room
Jennifer Lawrence - Joy
Charlotte Rampling - 45 Years
Saoirse Ronan - Brooklyn
Wait... where the hell is Rooney Mara? Also, I love J-Law but seriously? Can't they do the Oscars without her?
Best Directing
Adam McKay - The Big Short
George Miller - Mad Max: Fury Road
Alejandro G. Iñárritu - The Revenant
Lenny Abrahamson - Room
Tom McCarthy - Spotlight
Error 404 - Todd Haynes and Quentin Tarantino not found.
Best Foreign Language Picture
Embrace of the Serpent (Colombia)
Mustang (France)
Son of Saul (Hungary)
Theeb (Jordan)
A War (Denmark)
Best Original Score
Sicario
Best Original Screenplay
Straight Outta Compton
I'm surprised to see "Straight Outta Compton" and "Inside Out" here as I am to not see "The Hateful Eight".

Best Adapted Screenplay
Brooklyn
Best Production Design
Best Visual Effects
Star Wars: The Force Awakens
I'm trying to picture the faces of those at Marvel: all that money and not even a nomination.

Best Film Editing
The Big Short? Seriously?
Best Actress in a Supporting Role
Jennifer Jason Leigh - The Hateful Eight
Rooney Mara - Carol
Rachel McAdams - Spotlight
Alicia Vikander - The Danish Girl
Kate Winslet - Steve Jobs
And there she is, Rooney Mara. Weird because when I saw 'Carol', a week ago, I had the impression she was leading along with Cate Blanchett. Never mind.
Alicia Vikander got nominated for "The Danish Girl" and not for "Ex Machina"? What kind of witchcraft is that?
And Jane Fonda is missing.
And Jane Fonda is missing.
Best Actor in a Supporting Role
Christian Bale - The Big Short
Tom Hardy - The Revenant
Mark Ruffalo - Spotlight
Mark Rylance - Bridge of Spies
Sylvester Stallone - Creed
If Stallone wins over Hardy and Rylance the world's gonna end. By the way, where is Idris Elba?

This is going to be a tough one!
This is going to be a tough one!
Best Original Song
Earned It (The Weeknd) - Fifty Shades of Grey
Manta Ray (J. Ralph & Antony) - Racing Extinction
Simple Song #3 (Sumi Jo) - Youth
Til It Happens to You (Lady Gaga) - The Hunting Ground
Writing's on the Wall (Sam Smith) - Spectre
If Spectre's shit song wins, I might as well kill myself. "Earned It" is a good song but "Love Me Like You Do" is better and should have been here.
Bottom line: "The Revenant" basically got all the nominations and Tarantino was completely snobbed. So what do you think about the noms? Let me know in the comments below!
