This is such a hilariously and profoundly stupid argument I can't believe people are actually giving it The movie has all the elements of a completed plot. A rising action, falling action, climax and resolution, it just sets also the rest of the narrative and the second half of the overarching story. The movie HAS an ending, its just that the ending doesn't conclude ALL plot elements. That was never the requirement for Oscars nor should it be because that's stupid. Inception also has a Cliffhanger ending, it doesnt reveal a crucial part of the story. Infinity war? Cliffhanger. ESB? Cliffhanger. Dawn of the planet of the apes? All of these movies still have endings. --- This post didn't exist to you until you read it. You willed it into existence in your psyche by choosing to observe it. Thats the power you have.

Punished_Blinx 03/11/24 1:31:30 AM #66:	Cliffhangers are a narrative device to get people on the hook for the next thing. I would say that immediately differs it from an ambiguous ending. The ending of Inception is a proper ending that resolves the story and the development of the protagonist. There's nowhere else for it to go. I do agree it doesn't matter when it comes to these awards though. It's a direct sequel to a superhero movie that already made an impact and won. The Boy and the Heron likely being Miyazaki's last movie gives it an importance that isn't really going to be overlooked for this sort of thing. Not saying that's the only reason why it won but obviously there's a lot of politics, subtext and industry discussions that happen outside the movies themselves too. The nominees and winners tell a story themselves and are supposed to represent the discourse of that respective year. --- A Fallen Mascot <cite>Punished_Blinx posted [p:979304142] in Voice Acto...

It's a tough choice for me, because I love Ghibli movies, but Miles is one of my favorite Marvel characters and his movies have been great too. So two great movies competed and one came out on top. I wouldn't say that Spider-Verse was robbed. Also, it's wild to me that people are complaining about the cliffhanger.

pretzelcoatl 03/11/24 2:34:40 AM #77:	Prestoff posted... It's a Miyazaki movie, his movies get the Pixar treatment when it comes to the Oscars. Though I agree, I would've given Spiderverse the animated movie of the year imo. The Boy and the Heron movie was alright. The premise is interesting and I did enjoy the "boy meets mother" angle but I thought the execution was pretty bad. Still has gorgeous animation though. Spiderverse was just an amazing movie overall that blew me away, though I will admit I was a little sour when it wasn't a "complete" movie. It's more than just it's plot, it's semi-autobiographical and there is a lot of metaphor for things that took place over his life/career. it's not a very "face value" movie, but it is excellent. <cite>pretzelcoatl posted [p:979304583] in Voice Acto...

Though I agree, I would've given Spiderverse the animated movie of the year imo. The Boy and the Heron movie was alright. The premise is interesting and I did enjoy the "boy meets mother" angle but I thought the execution was pretty bad. Still has gorgeous animation though. Spiderverse was just an amazing movie overall that blew me away, though I will admit I was a little sour when it wasn't a "complete" movie.</quote>It's more than just it's plot, it's semi-autobiographical and there is a lot of metaphor for things that took place over his life/career. it's not a very "face value" movie, but it is excellent.</quote> ...

Yeah plus no point getting into the whole "the Oscars are a joke" thing when it's always been known that the best movie is never the one that wins. They gave the Oscar to rango for crying out loud when even Kung fu panda 2 was much better in every single way. Brave won over wreck it Ralph, an obvious but still no less insulting snub. And thats just for one category, let alone the others Rango is legitimately a great animated film.

While it is an excellent movie, the only plotline that gets resolved in Spiderverse is ~~Gwen reconciling with her father~~ which is by no means the main story. It has a rising action, a climax, and a falling action, but there's no resolution. Yes there is. The resolution is when miles comes to the realization that he never needed outside validation, and beat all of the other spider people who tried to hold him back. This resolves the clear conflict set up first when his mother wants him about going off to chase Gwen. Thats the fulfillment of his character arc in this story and why he ends up revealing his secret to his "mother". whatthis movie does brilliantly is it pulls the rug out from his own victory lap, where there SHOULD be a new resolution because he has gone back to the wrong new york it sets him on a path to where his problems have doubled. It takes that plot chart and works within it while completely subverting it. They build you up the entire time to this resolution, including montaging scenes from this film amd the previous. --- This post didn't exist to you until you read it.
