The best Twitter reactions from Oscar nominees
Sometimes you're so excited, only a gif reaction will suffice.
That's how some filmmakers are feeling after the 2017 Oscar Nominations were announced Tuesday. It's a pretty big moment -- even if you're Meryl Streep and it's the 20th time this has happened to you.
We rounded up the best reactions of the nominees on Twitter (and a certain snubbed actor, too).
Naomie Harris, nominated for best supporting actress for Moonlight
Her gif and emoji game is on point.
Lin-Manuel Miranda, nominated for best original song for How Far I'll Go from Moana
Sometimes you need many, many tweets to convey your feelings.
Octavia Spencer, nominated for best supporting actress for Hidden Figures
The star moved straight on to congratulating her fellow nominees.
Ava DuVernay, nominated for best documentary feature for 13th
The director is already thanking the Academy.
Meryl Streep, nominated for best actress for Florence Foster Jenkins
Streep doesn't have a Twitter account, but her representative Morgan Pesante sent this gif to reporters as her official statement on the nomination. And when you break your own record for most nominations ever (she now has a whopping 20), what else is there to say?
Ryan Reynolds, not nominated for Deadpool
Reynolds is a good sport about the snub for his superhero film, which some pundits thought might make a surprise appearance in the best picture category.
