It’s that time of the year for the movie industry. The Oscars have released their nominations for the best of the year 2023. While a lot of nominations aren’t surprising, there are several snubs that can’t be ignored. Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig not receiving nominations in Best Actress and Best Director. Saltburn, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, Priscilla, and Iron Claw didn’t receive any nominations. Charles Melton, Julianne Moore, Willem Dafoe, and more aren’t being recognized for their performances. Regardless, here are our thoughts on who we think will win each category for this year’s Oscars ceremony.
