Phantom, although maybe well received by the public, was a critical failure. Maybe that's why it wasn't nominated for more awards?
The consensus according to Rotten Tomatoes:
"The music of the night has hit something of a sour note: Critics are calling the screen adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s popular musical histrionic, boring, and lacking in both romance and danger. Still, some have praised the film for its sheer spectacle."
