Ah, I see...clearly it's just too good, and they want there to be some semblance of fair competition.

idk what the hell the deal is with Sony on these movies

Like there are hundreds, if not thousands, of people involved with the making of these movies and they still end up fucking horrible and everyone's like "yep let's send this one off to the theaters"

I don't get it either, maybe they just use these as tax write offs or something. It's so bizarre to consistently put out these abysmal films when they could at least put in some effort to make something great

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Sony didn't submit it. Read the article. The academy made a list of all eligible and ineligible films

I loved the movie and agree it wouldn't win the award, but it should meet the requirements. Terrifiier 3 is also absent from the list and I'm pretty sure it also meets the requirements.

It has to do with the DEI requirements, which are tough to figure out. But it has a bunch of "OR" statements in it, so you can have all white men actors and still be eligible with certain behind the scenes talent. Movies that have a chance and interest in awards always seem to meet the requirements.
