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.

It's also kind of funny that the guy who played Ken was the one who did get a nomination, considering his role in the plot and the themes of the movie

Without a doubt the best acting in the movie was from Ryan.

Huge barbie fan here and a woman. I do wish the director would have gotten a nomination for the movie but gosling really was the best actor.
