Recently, on one of my favorite subreddits, r/movies, user asked, " " and movie lovers came through with some truly criminal-level snubs! So, with that in mind, here are just a few of the most popular actors, movies, and other award snubs shared, starting with OVERALL FILMS: 1. (1985) "It was majorly snubbed, I think. It should have won Best Picture, and Whoopi Goldberg and Danny Glover were deserving of awards for their performances. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 2. (1998) "I think we all know should have lost 'Best Picture' to . " Here's a glimpse at the film: 3. (2005) "It should have won 'Best Picture' over in 2006. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 4. (1997) " not even getting nominated for Best Foreign Language film was a huge snub. In my opinion, it was more groundbreaking than any other Studio Ghibli film. Incredibly mature and philosophical, jaw-dropping animation, beautiful art direction, no character is inherently evil or bad. I don't think animated feature was an award until 2001. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 5. (1980) "The answer is always this losing 'Best Picture' to . " Here's a glimpse at the film: 6. (2014) "It was, at the time, extraordinarily innovative, funny, touching, and genuine. My husband and I both cried in the theater when we saw it. We couldn't stop recommending it to other adults. However, its only Oscar nomination was for its intentionally stupid song. For it to not even be nominated in any meaningful category was the beginning of my total disenchantment with the Oscars. It felt like they dismissed the entire thing as a Lego ad and called it a day. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 7. (2008) "It should have won 'Best Picture. ' It was such a well done movie that also to include superheroes. That's it. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 8. (1989) "It not being nominated for 'Best Picture' was a huge snub, but eventually winning that year was a real kick in the teeth. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 9. (2019) "Both Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson not getting nominated was a huge snub. The acting in that movie may very well be the best I’ve ever seen. Dafoe should’ve been a lock for a nomination, at the very least. " Here's a glimpse at the film: 10. (1958) "It wasn't even nominated for any Oscars, apart from 'Sound' and 'Art Direction. ' These days, it's considered by many to be the greatest movie ever made. " Here's a glimpse at the film: Next up, ACTORS (some for specific roles, and some just in general): 11. Samuel L. Jackson "Samuel L. Jackson has only been nominated once for , which was well-deserved, but I feel like he had gotten a whole lot better as his career progressed following that role. For example, his performances in the other Quentin Tarantino films and should’ve at least earned him a nomination a piece. He was sharing a lot of scenes with Robert De Niro in , and he completely outshined him. Also, with his role in , he really dived deep at making his character complex. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 12. Steve Buscemi "Steve Buscemi has never even been nominated for an Oscar. He for sure should have been at least nominated for . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 13. Lupita Nyong'o "What a performance in , and she wasn’t even nominated. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 14. Liam Neeson "I still have no idea how Liam Neeson didn’t win that Oscar for . The 'I could have got more' scene alone should have been enough. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 15. Al Pacino "He should've won for . It went to Art Carney. Unbelievable. I don’t mean to say that Art Carney was awful, or that was bad, only that I think Pacino gave an all-time acting performance. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 16. Alan Rickman "He was never even nominated. " Here's a glimpse at one of their best performances (IMHO): 17. Glenn Close "Glenn Close should have won one by now: , , , , , etc. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 18. Michael Clarke Duncan "He should've won for . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 19. Val Kilmer "He should've won for . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 20. Edward Norton "Edward Norton should have won for . Nope, instead Cuba Gooding Jr. won for basically playing himself in that year. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 21. Cillian Murphy "He has been throwing heaters for years in both lead and supporting performances, and has gotten no love from the Academy. " Here's a glimpse at one of their best performances (IMHO): 22. Mickey Rourke "He should have won for , hands down. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 23. Sean Astin "His never being nominated for 'Best Supporting Actor' for trilogy is a huge snub. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 24. Robert Downey Jr. "Robert Downey Jr. was absolutely robbed for his role in . Instead the award went to Al Pacino for , his most over-the-top performance, which he has continued to play in every role since. Pacino certainly should have won an award for many of his other stellar performances, but that year, they gave it to him as a sort of 'it’s your time' award. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 25. Pam Grier "When you mention , it's worth noting that Pam Grier didn't even get a Best Actress nomination for that, despite delivering a performance for the ages. In a better world, should have given her the career renaissance that John Travolta experienced after . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 26. Angela Bassett "The fact that she lost for . I will forever be salty about this loss. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 27. Toni Collette "She didn't even get nominated for her role in . She should've WON that year. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 28. Rosamund Pike "For . No one remembers Julianne Moore's performance in . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 29. Jonathan Majors "He deserved at least a nomination for 'Best Supporting Actor' for . " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 30. Idris Elba "For (2015), he was fucking scalding in it, and the Academy didn't even notice. " Here's a glimpse at their mentioned performance: 31. Peter O'Toole "It's the easy answer. He's one of Hollywood's most legendary actors. He was nominated eight times for 'Best Actor,' the most acting nominations ever without winning. . One of the all-time iconic roles in an epic movie. He would have won any year but that one, since the 1962 Best Actor award went to Gregory Peck in . He went up against Atticus Finch! And arguably, should have won! Two giant performances in cinema history. If people thought it was odd how long it took Leonardo DiCaprio to get his Oscar, it was nothing compared to O'Toole. He eventually received an Honorary Award for his lifetime contribution to film. He initially tried to reject it, as he desperately wanted to win one himself outright, but he was convinced to accept it by his children. " Here's a glimpse at (one of) their mentioned performance(s): And finally, a couple of miscellaneous MUSIC-related ones that people felt passionate about: 32. Kenny Loggins "I’m annoyed that Kenny Loggins doesn’t have a 'Best Original Song' Oscar. The dude was the Michael Jordan of movie songs. 1981: He nominated for 'I’m Alright' in . 1985: He nominated for , but lost to 'I Just Called to Say I Love You' by Stevie Wonder (which is also a great song). 1987: He nominated for 'Danger Zone' and lost to 'Take My Breath Away. ' That is an outrage. 'Take My Breath Away' has zero cultural impact in 2023. I hope he gets an honorary award down the road. His contribution to movies is incredible. " You can listen to the iconic song mentioned here: 33. John Williams "Over the span of two years (1981 and 1982), John Williams created two of the most iconic film scores in history: and . The former lost to , the latter to . 'The Imperial March' from is one of the greatest themes in the history of motion pictures.
