Despite a fervent following, 'The Iron Claw' was shut out of Oscar nominations, with many expressing disappointment over Zac Efron's absence from the conversation. Some believe the movie's lack of recognition, including for Original Song, is a travesty and a snub.
In spite of a career-defining performance from Zac Efron, 'The Iron Claw' didn't get any Oscar nominations on Tuesday morning. And it wasn't the only film with a fervent following that ended up with zero nods. https://t.co/cOa96SZzxw
Maybe the biggest IRON CLAW Oscar snub — even bigger than Efron, albeit a less cared-about category — was for Original Song.
The fact that Zac Efron wasn’t in the Oscars conversation for THE IRON CLAW is a travesty. Honestly, the movie not getting any love from the Academy is kinda bullshit.

If Zac Efron had been nominated - and he should have been for The Iron Claw - then both stars of Dirty Grandpa would have had a chance at Oscars. Damn them for denying us that.
Any other release date, any other campaign, and any other year, THE IRON CLAW is up for Best Picture and Zac Efron gets an Oscar.
