    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Why is he claiming that Gerwig got no nomination? Is he stupid?

Best Picture goes to the person as a Producer, not a Director.

So, yeah, if it wins, she'll be on stage for producing the film, but not directing it.

She's also nominated for best screenplay and Barbie really doesn't deserve an Oscar for the directing anyways

I dunno, the musical numbers and the giant beach battle look to have been pretty challenging from a directing perspective.

I'm not saying it's badly directed but in comparison to Poor Things, Killers of the Flower Moon and Anatomy of a Fall it's lacking. And I thought it was better than Oppenheimer, but not for the directing.
