Winners: Roma! Black Panther! Foreign films! Losers: A Star Is Born! Emily Blunt! Mister Rogers!

One of the weirdest Oscar seasons in recent history continues thanks to a weird list of Oscar nominations, one filled with great movies but also shocking snubs and heartening surprises.

Roma and The Favourite are at the top of the heap, with 10 nominations each; Vice and A Star Is Born are in second place with eight apiece. Black Panther, the first superhero movie ever nominated for Best Picture, is in third with seven.

But dig further down into the list and you’ll find some odd things going on in this oddest of awards seasons. They include a surefire documentary winner not even being nominated, the continued mistreatment of Emily Blunt, and the surprisingly soft total for A Star Is Born. Read on for more on all these snubs and surprises, and the seven winners and five losers from the 2019 Oscar nominations.

Winner: Roma (and Netflix)

Where should you see Roma?
Roma is a gorgeous depiction of 1970s Mexico City. Netflix

Roma came away from the nominations as one of the big winners, tying The Favourite with 10 nominations. It picked up two nominations for its actresses (lead actress Yalitza Aparicio and supporting actress Marina de Tavira), three for Alfonso Cuarón (Directing, Original Screenplay, and Cinematography), three technical nominations (Production Design, Sound Editing, and Sound Mixing), Best Foreign Feature (which goes to Mexico), and Best Picture.
