Snubbed by The Academy!


Is anyone else upset?

reply

YES. I thought it would at least get nominated for Best Song or something. Lame.

It's a beautiful movie, one of my favourites of 2016, and it deserves to be seen by more people. The Academy can suck it!

reply

Totally agree!

I'm disappointed. It was my favorite film of 2016. I was hoping Driving Like You Stole It would be nominated and we could see it played live at the Oscars...

It's a bloody shame.

I came to this board to start this exact same thread

I am upset and honestly incredibly shocked. Both Begin Again and Once got Best Song nominations, even though Once's song was released prior to the movie by The Frames.

This one has better songs than both of those films, but... Nothing. Wow.

I was so sure Drive It Like You Stole It would be nominated. But To Find You should've been the nomination.

There is another reason to fill your heart with hatred.

not upset, but disappointed. partly because surely up or drive it deserved a slot over a bloody sting song (i'm sure sting's song is fine, but blimey, charley), but mostly because this jewel of a film really deserves to be seen by more people than it has, and a nomination would have given it a nice little nudge, i'm sure.

This is my happening and it freaks me out.

Very! Such an underrated movie, and such a pity it didn't get nominations which it totally deserved.

"D'ya like Dags?"

Sing Street and Sunny Pawar not getting noms is deeply upsetting!
