"Why tf was Viola Davis not nominated for Woman King," one last angry fan tweeted." There's no reason for it. I have never even heard of the movie Andrea got nominated for and we all know how Blonde turned out. This is such trash omg."

Viola Davis not being nominated for “Woman King” is wild. Almost as wild as Ana de Armas being nominated for “Blonde.” https://t.co/OGr01ywnCM

"Overall I thought the Oscar nominations were pretty fair except... [Sarah Polley] for director and [Viola Davis] as actress were big misses. The fact that yet again no female directors were acknowledged is sad but predictable," lamented filmmaker Cassian Elwes.

Hear me out. Hollywood and The Academy ain’t ready to recognize Black women leading movies. Ugly truth.
THE WOMAN KING got better direction than most. It made money. Great ensemble. Great techs support. Viola Davis starring. And NONE got the attention?! pic.twitter.com/PCyGZJPnZR

"NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY..... If Meryl Streep can get 16 Oscar nominations... Then Viola Davis should be able to do the same," asserted author Kola Boof. "She's that good. And she was robbed for WOMAN KING which was a definite nomination — maybe not a win — but she DEFINITELY should be nominated."

"Danielle Deadwyler and Viola Davis missing for Ana De Armas and Andrea Riseborough is maddening," offered film critic Karl Delossantos. "It could have been the rare (first?) year that we had a majority POC Best Actress lineup-and with the actual best performances of the year."

"Danielle Deadwyler and Viola Davis not being on that list is laughable," added actress Bethany Anne Lind, "and awards don't matter but that doesn't stop me from being mad about it you can be mad about things that don't matter it's not a crime but them not being on that list is. Thank you very much."

I’m sad to see someone get a best actress nomination for a bad movie and even more saddened to see Viola Davis and the Woman King group not get one nomination. I guess the eyes on our work only lasted one year. Terrible. 🤬

"Viola Davis and Danielle Deadwyler should have gotten best leading actress love," tweeted filmmaker Matthew Cherry. "Lashana Lynch best supporting actress love. Both lead actors in RRR should have been nominated as well as their director. And was hoping the short New Moon by Colman Domingo would have gotten love."
