I figured it's because the category is Best Ensemble not Most Ensemble.

Only at the start of the film.

Yay, Minding the Gap! Really happy it also snagged an Editing nom.

That's quite the showing for Bad Times. Just missing out in four categories. I liked it, but wouldn't have thought it would get that much attention.

Yay for Mirai ! Didn't think enough people had seen it around here for it to make it, nice.

Interesting to see Barbara make it in Overlooked. I don't think I ended up including Jeanne Balibar on my ballot, thinking it was unlikely the film would get much support... I guess I should have, she really is great in it. An interesting film, though not one that entirely works for me.

La Casa Lobo looks intriguing.

Zama ending up in Overlooked is probably a disappointing result for its fans. I should probably watch it, we'll see.

Giving major side-eye to people who are going to make me watch Deadpool 2.

Sorry ! It's better than the first one, if that helps, and its nomination was definitely for the best part of the film.

Yay Shirkers !

I'll take Surprise for Thunder Road I guess, sad than Jim Cummings missed in Actor.

Surprised The Rider ended up in Overlooked, it feels like a heavyweight in that category (which, as always, looks super interesting).

Now I really have to see Minding the Gap.

M:I - Fallout missing any nominations is a travesty that I participated in. I'm in the middle of a rewatch and it is a stunningly good action movie. Second only to Into the Spiderverse for me this year.

Well, at least Blindspotting got something.
