“You get what you f*cking deserve!”

It is no surprise that Todd Phillip’s Joker would get Oscars noms but 11 of them? Damn. Personally, I find the film to be excellent down to the tee – excellent writing, directing, score and Joaquin Phoenix gave one of his best performances of his career.

Joker leads the pack with a total of 11 nominations including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Cinematography. The film will be contending with other great films from last year like The Irishman, Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood and more.

Check out the full list for this year’s Academy Award nominees for Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Actress:

• Joker
