UPDATED JAN 25, 2019

The nominees for the 2019 Academy Awards, scheduled to be held on Sunday, February 24, on ABC, have been announced and for the most part, we are happy. From 'A Star is Born' to 'Roma', most of our favorite films of 2018 have found their way to the nominee list, but there are a few films and performers that the Academy failed to recognize.

John David Washington — 'BlacKkKlansman'

Spike Lee's 'BlacKkKlansman' was one of the best movies of the year, and managed to bag four nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director for Lee, Adapted Screenplay, Film Editing and Actor in a Supporting Role for Adam Driver. However, the heart of the movie, John David Washington did not earn a nomination.
