I completely agree with your #1 ranking for John Candy in Supporting Actor. It's easily one of the best performances of the decade.

Yeah, you linked me. I wrote down that I hadn't seen yet and saw some over the year.

The Untouchables - a better movie than anything nominated for Best Picture that year - isn't even in the top ten movies I think of when I think of Sean Connery. He should have won the previous year for The Name of the Rose. Neither he or anyone else nominated for Supporting Actor that year gave the sort of career-defining performance in 1987 that Candy and Ermey did.
No issue with Michael Douglas's nomination or even his win. It's one of only two performances in that category that can be found in memorable films, both also superior to anything nominated for Best Picture that year.

And granted, Robocop and Predator were never getting nominated in anything but technical categories. But the others I named as not being nominated in Best Picture were also at least feasible. It was an embarrassment of riches that year and the academy totally dropped the ball. What's "inconceivable" (to quote one of the best films that year) is that they were fully aware of most of these films. Connery and Douglas won, of course, The Princess Bride was nominated for Best Song, Full Metal Jacket for Adapted Screenplay, and Matewan for cinematography. They just chose to nominate lesser films.
Now, Wings of Desire, it's maybe to much to ask for a German film to be nominated for all of the awards I mentioned (save for maybe American acting legend Peter Falk in the supporting category), but for it to not even get a nod in Best Foreign Language Film is absolutely ludicrous!
