A "snub" requires that merit was shown, and willfully ignored.

The Barbie video wasn't snubbed anywhere.

Greta Gerwig has never been a good director. Hell, she was nominated for directing Lady Bird, and all she did was point a video camera in the general direction of people talking.

I've said that Margot Robbie is a generational talent, and I stand by that. The thing is, I said that after seeing Babylon, which came out months before Barbie.

The only moment in Barbie that made me chuckle was when Margot Robbie said something about not feeling beautiful anymore, and the voiceover making a quip about how Margot Robbie was probably the wrong person for this role.

It's true. Margot Robbie is both one of the most beautiful human beings who has ever lived and a brilliant actress. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Margot Robbie hits her seventies and she's the Meryl Streep or the Helen Mirren of future generations.

She wasn't snubbed for Barbie.

She was snubbed for Babylon, being that it was the first Damien Chazelle film that wasn't a resounding success (I still liked it).

Her performance in Babylon, regardless of how you think or feel about the rest of the film, was brilliant.

She was perfectly cast.

She played a stunningly gorgeous woman (which she is), with all of the screen presence and charisma in the world (which she has), who fails to pass the Greta Garbo elocution test, and loses her mental fortitude.

Margot Robbie is clearly, stunningly gorgeous with a lot of charisma. She had the talent to purposefully not pass the 1930s elocution test in Babylon. She has the talent to play a mentally unstable character -- we saw that in I Tonya.

She just didn't get nominated for her lesser performance in Barbie because...well...it wasn't anything to write home about.

Barbie wasn't snubbed anywhere.

Popular doesn't mean right.

Barbie was popular. That didn't, and doesn't make it good.
