How in the world is The Boss Baby a better film than The LEGO Batman Movie? That nomination for Best Animated film makes no sense!

I think Wonder Woman was Ok but certainly not Oscar worthy. Maybe costume design but that’s it!

Was The Lego Batman Movie officially released in late 2016 anywhere?

Really glad Logan got a nomination for screenplay. I think Hugh deserved an acting nom as well.

LEGO Batman was great but it wasn't Oscar-worthy, in my opinion. I don't think Boss Baby should've been nominated either. Coco was definitely a good candidate tho

their goes Autbot whining why wonder woman isn't nominated

maybe now we can admit that it's just not that great a movie. Just one of the better DC movies..which is not saying much.

What i want to know is how does suicide squad get nominated, or stuff like boss baby?

I can only imagine that Suicide Squad got the nod and the win based on the good work by the hair and make-up folks involved.

Their work was still good regardless of the rest of the production.

Oscars are not exactly an indication of the movie worth.
Especially nowadays.

HELL yes... The Shape of Water was easily my favorite film of the year. Happy to see it get so many nods. I hope it cleans up.

Only disappointment is that Logan didn't get more nods. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart put in phenomenal performances.

No Wonder Woman but there's Boss Baby? Oscar 2018 is cancelled.

Coco should win though.

Despite its CGI-intensive Super Saiyan final battle, WW unfortunately does not qualify for "Best Animated Feature."

Wonder Woman is a good movie - it's enjoyable to watch, but it's possibly not a technical or artistic outlier. People comparing it to Suicide Squad have to remember that the latter was nominated for hair & Makeup, which was front and centre in that movie.

I guess I'm mostly just disappointed that we finally got a Wonderwoman movie, and it wasn't one gratuitous butt shot after another, then I feel like those things alone should earn some kind of award.

Maybe MTV will pick up this slack.

Probably. They're more entertainment oriented, and I think that's all WW was trying to be.
