the 2020 oscar nominations in a nutshell:
Joker:
White man is mad.
Marriage Story:
Rich white people are mad.
The Irishman:
Old white people are sad.
The Two Popes:
Two old white men are mad/sad.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood:
White woman is glad.
Jojo Rabbit:
Hitler is bad.
No nominations where it counts for Midsommar, Us, The Lighthouse.
Nothing for Dolomite. Criminal.
I have not seen Little Women but I feel confident in saying it should have been recognized more.
At least Parasite got a few. Though The Farewell was completely overlooked.
Also, while on the topic of film,
I have an important question about the movie CATS which will ultimately determine whether or not I see it:
At any point in the film does one of the CATS cats sit in a cardboard box that is a little too small for them

They really missed an opportunity not having that box scene.
