None of these categories were won by either film, linking them together.
WickedandBarbieare fairly similar films, making their Oscars fate even more coincidental.
Unfortunately, neither of the big-budget movies could overcome their competitors.
For its wins,Wicked’s production design and costume design were the standouts in their categories.
Regarding its losses in the so-called big categories,Wickedis not a typical Oscar fare movie.
Furthermore, only 10 musicals have won Best Picture in the past, meaningWickedhad an uphill battle there.
