The 2023 nominations have been announced by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts for the 95th Oscars awards and it’s no surprise there are some films that dominated the list and some that seem to have been snubbed this year.
Among the big winners are A24’s Everything Everywhere All at Once with a total of 11 nominations, Netflix’s All Quiet on the Western Front with a total of 9 nominations, and Searchlight’s The Banshees of Inisherin also with 9 nominations.
Also winning big on the nominations is Warner Bros’ Elvis (8 nominations), Universal’s The Fabelmans (6 nominations), Focus Features’ Tár (6 nominations), and Paramount’s Top Gun: Maverick (6 nominations). One of our favorite films of the year, The Batman (ranked second in our best 4k Blu-rays of the year) was nominated for 3 Oscars.
What films got snubbed? We would have liked to have seen Focus Features’ The Northman get nominated for Best Sound or Best Cinematography. 20th Century Studios’ Death on the Nile should have been a consideration for Best Writing and Best Costume Design. Focus Features’ Downton Abbey: A New Era could have been another nominee for Best Costume Design as well as Makeup and Hairstyling. Also from Focus Features, Armageddon Time had impressive performances that could have been on the nomination lists. Universal’s NOPE had some gorgeous cinematography that could have been recognized, but its snub is understandable given the genre which is often omitted at the Oscars.
The winners will be announced at the 95th Oscars on Sunday, March 12. Here are the nominations for the 95th Oscars celebrating films that were released in 2022.
