Oscar Nominations 2019 Reaction

83/106

About par for course for me, which is to say: pretty good! Called Roma getting in the sound categories, my 'No Guts, No Glory' prediction of Ballad of Buster Scruggs getting in song came out correct (surprisingly!)--but didn't expect it to get 3 nominations!--and got all 8 Picture nominees.
Surprises: Both Farrelly and Cooper missing Director (Cooper is a huge shock!), Marina de Tavira making Supporting Actress, Won't You Be My Neighbour? missing, and First Man's score being omitted, along with the film vastly underperforming with only 4 nominations.
