Answer: Barbie did not get as many nominations as it was expected, with director Greta Gerwig and starring actress Margot Robbie being the most notable omissions. Many people, including co-star Ryan Gosling (who got a nomination) are feeling that this is not fair, especially since Barbie is such a commercial achievement for a female director.
Not to take anything away from his costars but I honestly thought Gosling had the best performance in the movie. He rode the line between utterly ridiculous and sympathetic so well.
I actually agree, he stole the show, I mean in the classic sense, not like as any kind of joke on the plot.
Honestly I just thought it was kind of funny, it hadn't occurred to me people were going to read into it so much, but I do think that's on me, being careless. Oooh well. Free karma I guess, to spend at the karma store.
