The list of nominations for the 91st Academy Awards have been announced, leaving us with some mixed feelings at X-Press, with a few films that wowed us, and some that left us cold. Leading the pack with 10 nominations a piece is The Favourite and Roma, with Vice and A Star is Born following close behind with eight each. The Marvel Cinematic Universe also got it’s first nomination for Best Picture, with Black Panther rounding out a strong field.
