    I gave up on the Oscars when Killers from Space didn't receive a single nomination at the 1954 awards. Of course I was ten.

    For me, the sticking point would be "Brazil", which lost to "Out Of Africa" for best picture. I guess Terry Gilliam was too much of an original for the Oscars to stomach, so they picked a film more in line with Oscar tradition. One of my favorite films of all time.

      I knew "Out of Africa" would win that year, because Hollowood ALWAYS goes for the grand and sweeping epic. Smaller movies made on a smaller budget never have a chance. It's a disgrace when members of the Academy don't even bother to see all the major nominees, even with all their free showings and "screeners".
      Why should the public care what they think at "awards" time, when they can't even manage to see what they're voting for -- or AGAINST?

      Sydney Pollack was a way better director then Terry Gilliam and made many very good films. OUT OF AFRICA is one of them. BRAZIL is a little bit childish.

    Just for the record, from 1927 to 1967 I agreed with the Academy only once in awarding Best Picture. And that was in 1927 with Sunrise which one a special prize before the actual best picture was formally given out. Or something like that.

      Agreed, a great film, even though the story is sort of common (down and out lawyer; moral and career redemption case; big moral win). Newman should have won Actor for this film, not The Color of Money, a win I am certain was only to "make up" for him being robbed for The Verdict.

    Thank you. Snub is used for not being nominated, not for not winning.
    This list need to be broken into two lists: 1. No nominations. 2. No wins.
    For no nominations, publicity and marketing need to be analyzed.
    For no wins, compare the film to what film won and the other nominations.

      @joecoe4416 A snub means for any candidate not nominated in their respectful category. It's still a snub in that category if the film receives other category nominations.
      Take, for example famous snub, Both Argo and Driving Miss Daisy won Best Picture; however, their directors were both snubbed for not even being nominated for Best Director.
      It's rare for well-known with positive reviews to be shut out. I haven't heard of many of these films. Their problems were not due to nominating committee. Their problem was marketing and getting their film known. Some were so small.
      Some YTers add too much conjecture and sound very biased. Just give us the facts. He's no Watchmojo,
      Whatculure, or Looper.

    David Garrick, the founder of the modern form of acting, is reported to have said in his last words, 'Dying is easy, comedy is hard'. Comedy IS hard. That the Oscars and other theatrical organizations fail to recognize that and only give their 'rewards' to quote-unquote 'serious' productions is, past and present and future, a gutless disgrace. It's taking the easy way out, a kow-tow to 'literature' standards

    I agree with you on a few of these but if you see who was nominated those years, I think the academy got it right. How did these do at the Spirit Awards? Perhaps there were just a dozen movies the academy (and the Spirit judges) preferred. Sometimes you come in 13th place, and you have to deal with that selection process. They best thing you can do is promote the hell out of them and get their box office up, so they make more profit. Bottom line is the reason the film is made by the producers. P.S. Some of these did get nominated or their cast did, so they weren't totally locked out.

I stopped watching their boring excuse for a fashion show a long time ago.

    "Sing Street" chanced its arm 20-some yrs after Alan Parker's Dublin, Irish "The Commitments," essentially the same premise, but with working class kids --- very good, funny; Andrew Strong could blow the doors out with his singing. Dublin's bound to get it straight sooner or later, the wealth of talent there.
