I kind of feel that the film was not given real consideration because Sandler is the star. Phoenix is considered a "serious" actor and thus that elevated Joker above a picture that features Adam Sandler. Which I think is ridiculous. Sandler is fantastic and fully invested. He gained weight for the role and delivers an outstanding serious performance. Maybe I'm wrong but I think they overlooked this one just because Sandler is the featured actor.
