The BAFTA nominations have just been announced and it's a surprisingly respectable list. "BlacKkKlansman" in particular received a nice seal of approval from an awards group that typically doesn't respond well to black-centric filmmaking. Meanwhile, "Black Panther" only picked up a lone Visual Effects nomination. Yikes!
