"Whiskey" Callahan @whiskeycallahan.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Good point, but I'd add that Andy Serkis changed the entire way CGI acting is done in film forever and deserved best actor for Gollum in The Two Towers, it may be the most overlooked contribution to film in the history of the Oscars.

Gareth @gtc78.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Yes, he should have been nominated. However, a "snub" is a deliberate act. It's a bit of a social media thing to call everything a snub when it comes to awards. 100
