Entertainment films funny oscars
This hilarious 30 Rock supercut is the only Oscar nominations update you need
The Oscar nominations landed on Tuesday, with their fair share of controversy.
The one that got the most attention was the lack of a Best Director nomination for Greta Gerwig or a Best Actress one for Margot Robbie in Barbie, while Ryan Gosling got one for playing Ken.
Greta Gerwig: Made a critically acclaimed, culturally profound, feminist movie about Barbie and the patriarchy that made a billion dollars at the box office.

it really is kind of wild that academy awards understood the plot of barbie enough to nominate it for best picture but didnt INTERNALIZE the plot enough to nominate the women who put in the work to make it a best picture

To be fair, Margot Robbie was nominated for Best Producer and the film itself for Best Picture.
"Wow…just wow…Barbie is the ultimate movie about the terror of the patriarchy and the academy nominates KEN not BARBIE!"
She was nominated for producer.
"Just wow…fuck the patriarchy"
America Ferrera was nominated for Best Supporting, just like Ryan Gosling.
"Just wow"

The Academy posted all the nominations on their Twitter/X feed, if you want to check out what made the cut, but we live in a fast-paced, short attention-span world, and RÓGE‘s quick flit through clips of 30 Rock that describe the nominated films is just what we need.
See for yourself.
