They certainly loved Nightmare Alley a lot more than The Globes (who possibly weren't sent a screener). No Cooper though. Negga is also absent which comes off as quite a surprise. Happy to see Cage, Kotsur and Dowd nominated.

And Blanchett. Wonder why she isn't hitting with awards bodies this season, even when they are going for her main play (Nightmare Alley).

She's getting the ink, but maybe what I've been saying about Blanchett repeating herself and offering up nothing new in her performances is starting to affect her.

Eh, Blanchett missing isn't that much of a shocker. The female categories are packed this year. Nightmare Alley seems much more of a director/technical showpiece anyway.

But it is a sign when the fucking Critics Choice, whose whole deal is trying to predict the Oscars, snub DiCaprio, who is the biggest movie-star on the planet.

But it is a sign when the fucking Critics Choice, whose whole deal is trying to predict the Oscars, snub DiCaprio, who is the biggest movie-star on the planet.

A week ago, I was getting chastised for playing down Blanchett's MVP ink in Nightmare Alley (not quite what I was doing, but I digress) and people had her as a lock in the supporting actress category for at least a nomination and a possible 3rd Oscar. She's meant to be the new Streep after all, who can't miss during awards season if the role/project is praised enough. Well, the role and the project is praised enough and she's missing. So yeah, to me, it's a shocker. I don't think the supporting female category is so stacked that someone like Blanchett should be missing like this.

If she can't get past the likes of Ariana DeBose or Maureen Dowd, then talk about her having some Streep level pull in the industry is probably somewhat exaggerated. Though, I wouldn't write her off yet. Blanchett could be saved by SAG and make it to the Oscar line-up in the end.

Leo is in a satirical role, that feels lighter than normal for him. Nothing about it feels essential to nominate, even if they go for his film. I'm not shocked at him missing at all.

When their whole point of existence is predicting the Oscars, and they leave off the biggest movie star on the planet who was still raved even when his film was panned (and in this case, his film still got nominated for Picture and Screenplay)? Yeah, it's something to take note of.

Well they did snub him for The Wolf of Wall Street...so they've done it before. (And yes they did nominate him in the now retired comedy performance category, but they probably would've nominated him again if that category was still around for this).

These noms makes no sense, so Don't Look Up has passion to get Screenplay and Acting Ensemble, but not the actual acting categories (Actor and Supporting Actress)??

Critics ARE NOT the industry, i'll wait for SAG to see if DiCaprio's chances are dead.

I mean still that was strange oversight there too (given he beat Bale later who WAS nominated in the main category). Though more on your point, they didn't decide to do the 8 nominees like last year just to make sure they could include him. Though I'd be more concerned for DiCaprio if he misses SAG, but even then, I wouldn't count him out as the last minute surprise (given BAFTA nominations no longer matter). And besides he is on the map thanks to the Globe nod, Bradley Cooper was probably hurt most today out of the supposed contenders as he's the only major name being bandied about who came up completely short (Unless you count Phoenix). However both are deeply loved by the academy acting branch, so it hurts them less than I think if Dinklage or Garfield had missed.

Why are you so stuck on this "biggest movie star on the planet " thing with DiCaprio?

One could argue that distinction actually belongs to someone like Dwayne Johnson right now, whom the Critics Choice don't give a shit about. And they snub plenty of huge movie stars all the time.

Well the receipts support the claim. When a film in the vein of The Revenant makes more than Johnson "blockbusters" like Rampage, Skyscraper, Baywatch, Central Intelligence, San Andreas, Hercules, and Journey 2, it is hard to say that Johnson has the Midas touch, and DiCaprio does not. Since 2010 every DiCaprio film has made more than double its budget regardless of genre. I highly doubt a film like J. Edgar would've come close to 50 million without DiCaprio's name on it.
