The shortlists in 10 categories for the upcoming 94th Oscars ceremony have been announced by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, and, uh, I have several questions.

Shortlist voting ended last week, and nomination voting begins on January 27, 2022. The 10 categories announced include Original Song, International Feature, Documentary Feature, Makeup and Hairstyling, Sound, Visual Effects, Original Score, Animated Short Film, Documentary Short Subject, and Live Action Short. The Academy is notorious for leaving out horror cinema from Oscar contention (justice for Toni Collette in "Hereditary"), but this year's snubbing of the Palm d'Or Winner "Titane" for International Feature feels especially egregious. Director Julia Ducournau is only the second woman in history to win the Palm d'Or, so the film's exclusion feels like even more proof that the Academy just doesn't "get" horror when even one of the most incredible horror films of the last decade still gets a snub. But then again, the Icelandic film "Lamb" from A24 made the cut, so what do I know?

Let's take a look at the movies that made the cut and are now one step closer to a possible Oscar nomination.

The 2022 Oscars Shortlist

Fortunately, there is still plenty to celebrate, with the countries of Bhutan, Kosovo, and Panama making the shortlist for International Feature for the first time, Ruth E. Carter nabbing another costume nomination for "Coming 2 America" after her 2019 snub of her work on "Dolemite is My Name," and the exciting possibility for dueling double nominations in the Original Score category for Hans Zimmer's work on both "Dune" and "No Time To Die" and Jonny Greenwood's scores for "Spencer" and "The Power of the Dog." Jay-Z and Beyoncé both made the shortlists for their respective numbers in "The Harder They Fall" and "King Richard," and if both are nominated, it will be the first time in Oscar history a husband and wife competed against one another in the same category. Lin-Manuel Miranda is also facing history if his song "Dos Oruguitas" from "Encanto" wins, which would earn him the prestigious EGOT. Check out the full list below.
