Oscars Snub Leonardo DiCaprio, Ryan Gosling

While a slew of underdogs had their day when Oscar nominations were announced this morning — Melissa McCarthy, “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy” — snubs, there were many.



Also notable: David Fincher didn’t get best director for “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” and Ryan Gosling, who starred in three acclaimed movies last year, was nowhere to be found, nor was his critically acclaimed “Drive” co-star, Albert Brooks.


And as for that Madonna/John feud? “It looks like the Academy didn’t care for either of their songs, in the end,” he said. “Maybe they made a lot of fuss over nothing.”
