Oscar 2013 Nominations List out: Who are this year's biggest Oscar snubs?

The Oscars 2013 nominations have just been announced, with no huge surprises in the Best Picture category (despite having just 9 nominees), but not in the acting and directing categories.

Leonardo DiCaprio ("Django Unchained") and Matthew McConaughey ("Magic Mike") were snubbed in the Best Supporting Actor category, while Nicole Kidman also failed to be nominated as Best Supporting Actress.

The Best Actress nominees are generally favorable, except that it could have been great if Helen Mirren ("Hitchcock") is one of them. It's quite interesting to note though that two nominees (Quvenzhane Wallis and Emmanuelle Riva) become the youngest & oldest Oscar Best Actress nominees ever.

And probably the biggest Oscar snubs this 2013 are the shocking exclusions of Kathryn Bigelow for "Zero Dark Thirty", Ben Affleck for "Argo" and even Quentin Tarantino for "Django
Unchained" as Best Director nominees.

It's also a surprise that 'The Dark Knight Rises' failed to earn a single nomination.
