What I mean is like an undeniably Oscar worthy performance that is hated because of either how that nomination was obtained, who got nominated, or (in the case of winners) who won over better performances.
Andrea Riseborough is incredible in To Leslie, she deserved the nomination, even if the campaign could be considered questionable.
Carol is among my top 15 favorite movies of all time, and it got two acting noms and screenplay, alongside BTL nominations. It’s a sensational film with an incredible ending and it missed the nomination…
You don’t even need to cut any BP nominee that year. There were only 8 nominees, so why couldn’t they increase it to 9 and nominate this???
What are some other films that make you upset missed BP
Sadly most of these great lineups have somewhat weak winners
The only one that comes to mind for me is Shrek.
For the love of god, please choose your least favorite this time.

Welcome to the Best Original Screenplay of the 2010s nominees tournament. Every day or maybe less than that, I will post the winners (or shall we say loser) of each previous poll, and we restart to reach the BEST screenplay nominated for Best Original Screenplay. Just vote for your least favorite of the 50 nominees for starter. If the link doesn’t work, then let me know, and I’ll try to fix it asap!
Gone Girl is a masterpiece. It is tense, though-provoking, and intense. It only got one nomination at the Oscars - albeit a well deserved one - for Rosamund Pike. Why do you think it didn’t do too well? What nominations would you give? Are there any other 2014 films that got critically snubbed?
