B2 - what's Gosling meant to say? He can't stay silent and IMO saying who should be dropped or withdrawing his nom would both have strong

repercussions and it's not reasonable to demand a nominee do either.

Responses:

Nothing. He can always just STFU. "Snubs" happen every year, and obviously they are in the eye of the beholder. - Marlowe Jan 24, 08:44 12
- I disagree with this - STFUing is not an option, he has to actively support the people who led the project. -- nm - Roger More Jan 24, 09:01 7
  - totally agree -- nm - prayformojo 🐵 Jan 24, 09:05
  - There is a very subtle difference between being disappointed and saying they should have been nominated. (NM) - Marlowe Jan 24, 09:05 5
    - If it was a critic or a commentator saying it, I'd agree with you. But this is someone who collaborated on a project with Gerwig and Robbie for a year - Roger More Jan 24, 09:16
    - he did use the "disappointed" language, though, didn't he? I think it's a fair statement -- nm - Andie Jan 24, 09:08 3
      - And the he said "Their work should be recognized along with the other very deserving nominees.” (NM) - Marlowe Jan 24, 09:09 2
        
        that's a very clever wording though. "recognition" could be taken as him recognizing it through that statement, I don't believe he ever said "they - Andie Jan 24, 09:11 1
        
        The best he could have done would be stop short of the one sentence that is interpreted as calling it a snub. (NM) - Marlowe Jan 24, 09:19
- he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. If he doesn't say anything he gets torn apart by the otehr side -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jan 24, 08:51 3
  - Sure. I'm damning him because he did. This whole thing is always annoying. There are 5 slots and most of the time, way more than 5 deserving people. - Marlowe Jan 24, 09:00 2
    - They nominated everyone *BUT* the two women most responsible for it. - Will Hunting Jan 24, 09:09 1
      - IMO, the writing is more relevant to this film than direction is. - Marlowe Jan 24, 09:17
His (or his publicist's) statement is fine. It just says that every nomination for the film is due to Margot and Greta. - Dano Jan 24, 07:55 2
- That's not how I read this. - Marlowe Jan 24, 08:46 1
  - I didn't see the rest of it. Yes he's saying they were snubbed. -- nm - Dano Jan 24, 09:03
agree. -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Jan 24, 07:49
