Amy Schumer joked that "Don't Look Up" is a Best Picture surprise nomination because of its poor reviews.
When did that become a prerequisite for getting nominated for an Academy Award?” But they didn’t vote for it.” Jimmy Kimmel previously voiced his shock at the Academy recognizing “Don’t Look Up,” saying, “Even if you go by the critics reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, ‘Don’t Look Up’ got a 46 percent and ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ has 90 percent.

I mean, the innovation to make a movie about Lucille Ball without even a moment that’s funny? Schumer also took a swing at Aaron Sorkin’s Being The Ricardos, the Nicole Kidman-Javier Bardem film about Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. “Aaron Sorkin: a genius!
