'Wonder Woman' fans are not pleased that the critical and box office hit did not receive a single Academy Award nomination.
Wonder Woman received critical acclaim and broke box office records throughout the year, inspiring audiences and changing the game for female-led filmmaking. Many were hoping that groundbreaking success would result in Wonder Woman being recognized at the Academy Awards in major categories including Best Picture and Best Director for Patty Jenkins. Today, the nominees for this year’s Oscars were announced and the acclaimed DC film did receive any nominations, even in technical categories where blockbuster films are more commonly recognized. Fan reactions ranged from disappointed to angry, though many pointed out that the Oscar snubs will not take away from the cultural and social impact of Wonder Woman.
