Oscar Nominations 2021: Surprises, Snubs and History-Making Nods - Collider For Your Consideration

On this week’s For Your Consideration, Collider’s awards experts Scott Mantz, Perri Nemiroff and Jeff Sneider weigh in on all the Oscar nominations, from Mank, which led the field with 10 nominations, to the surprising snubs of both One Night in Miami and Ma Rainey's Black Bottom in the Best Picture category. It seems that Judas and the Black Messiah was the late-breaking entry that threw a wrench into awards season, as not only did the film earn nominations for Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay, but it also picked up a pair of Supporting Actor noms for its two stars, Daniel Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield. Apparently, the two title characters were supporting each other the whole time. Meanwhile, Glenn Close edged out Ellen Burstyn for a Supporting Actress nomination, and David Fincher did make the cut for Best Director, though the real story of that category is how Chloe Zhao and Emerald Fennell made history, as the Academy has never nominated two female filmmakers in the same year before.

The next FYC episode will arrive following the SAG Awards in early April, so be sure to give this one a watch or listen since it's the last one for a few weeks.
