2021 Oscar Nominations! Mank! Nomadland! Promising Young Woman! Snubs! Surprises! And More!

It’s interesting, by this time I’ve usually seen most if not all of the contenders… This year not so much but 2021 is an odd year to say the least.

There were some shocking omissions this year. No Regina King for director, no Spike Lee, where was Michelle Pfeiffer? and no Amy Adams even though Glenn Close got in?

Check out the full list below!
