They're probably going to give it to Black Panther, and not even nominate it for BP, which will piss everyone off.
At least before if it didn't get nom'd people would just be like "Oh, that's the Oscar's, never giving superhero films any credit", but now it just feels like they're pandering to the masses instead of either owning up to their current BP criteria or altering the criteria to give more mainstream films a chance to be considered in the main category. I'd be good with either of those 2 options, but they somehow found a shittier third option. --- "She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.'

People see it for what it is, trying to pander to the more mainstream crowd without actually making any changes to the system. What they should do is just stop giving a fuck about ratings, make it an online Streaming thing, and the people who actually give a shit will watch it. Or if they legitimately care about branching out to a larger audience, make more of an effort to appreciate the film-making skill that still goes into these blockbuster action films so they'll at least get a nom. Don't throw in a useless category that waters down the BP category, while simultaneously being incredibly condescending to any films that get nom'd for the "popular" category but not BP. --- "She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter?

and the only thing that makes Thanos stand out as a villain is Brolin's performance that and his legacy from the comics. comic readers were hyped for him cause they had been waiting since 1991 to see this story in a movie. Thanos is very famous in the comics and Killmonger is not. I had never even heard of Kilmonger before. and I actually read comics. Thanos is super awesome. it's like waiting to see Darth Vader. imagine if there were over 20 star wars movies and they waited til the 20th film to finally unleash Darth Vader. it's like that ...

it's fine if you didn't find it to be "all that special" or "not that amazing", and you see it as a ""lower medium" level movie in the MCU ranking", but at least acknowledge that others might not have the same opinions as you do
I preferred it, and other movies in the MCU, over IW. other people have similar views, others don't. it's all good either way, but to dismiss someone's opinion as being politically motivated, or something along those lines, is pretty lame, tbh. edit: at post 36 --- b-bb-box ... Copied to Clipboard!

I liked Black Panther, but there's going to be a total shitstorm on social media if it doesn't win. You aren't going to see anything like that from Avengers, MI, Incredibles, Wreck It Ralph, or Quiet Place fans if they don't get their way. I assume those will be the nominees

Yeah, I think most level headed people see the praise BP got as more of a consequence of it's cultural significance than it's quality, not to say it's a bad movie, just not particularly amazing when you remove the cultural significance. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori https://imgur.com/TheGsZ9 ...

The Academy's always been bad about nominating animated films for anything outside of the Animated category, and I don't think even this is going to change that. It'll get a Best Animated Picture nom, that's it. --- "She was like, 'Oh, did you see that firefighter? Hes so cute.' And I was like, Mom, I just got blown up." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Infinity is a fun movie, but no way is it better than Black Panther. IW was just a bunch of quips and action scenes. Nobody other than Thanos and maybe Thor had any kind of character growth or exploration at all. Whereas in Black Panther the story, characters, and even the setting were fully fleshed-out and explored.
