The Oscars only like it when comic movies are like Logan and they dont even award it best picture they gave it something lower like screenplay. call it a comic movie consolidation price nomination.
Black Panther is not oscar worthy, the only logical explanation is Disney paying for it.
The way the nominations work is anonymous ballots by the members in their specific categories (actors for actors directors for directors) except for best picture all get to nominate. This is overseen by Price Waterhouse Cooper. A Accounting and Assurance firm. They certify every nomination and winners. They take their job very seriously. Mainly because of their reputation, but also because it would be a crime for them to certify it if bribery happened. As the ballots cross state lines it would be a Federal Crime. And if you don't think the Feds like making examples out of Hollywood ask Aunty Becky and Wesley Snipes. The conspiracy theory of yours is just that. Why wait and bribe for Black Panther why not bribe for all of their movies. The only logical explanation is the movie tapped in the pulse of the nation and the members of the academy took that zeitgeist and nominated against their normal predilection to scoff at superhero movies. Has everyone welcomed you back Summers8 or we still pretending it's not you? Why do people keep calling me summers 8?
Black Panther is not cinema. Logan at least has some Scorsese draw backs.

While I do love it and personally think it’s the best movie of the year (so far), I don’t believe there’s any way they can win them all. And I also think Disney is being a bit pushy with its nominations. Pushy in what way? These for consideration things happen every year and are done by every studio, for much worse films. I remember a few years back one of the F&F films had an ad for a lot more nominations than this.

I remember a few years back one of the F&F films had an ad for a lot more nominations than this. I was unaware of that. Maybe it’s because they are banking more on the movie with these awards even as successful as it already is. They can have some of course, but I think it’s more fair to give other movies a chance. |

And the Oscars is not about honoring film. It turned into a popularity contest the first time they allowed studios to campaign for a nomination.

Anti Disney and Anti Netflix Sentiment Will Be Interesting At The Oscars This Year The old guard trying their best to hold back the future. Claiming that a movie that's made for a Streaming Service is anyway different from movies released for wide release for theater. It's the anti-tv bias that ruled Hollywood for so long. "Don't do TV it will ruin your Movie Career" was the going sentiment for forever. Now the quality of storytelling for Episodic or Movies made for "tv" is on par or better than Traditional Movies. Hell if you think about how movies are transferred to Digital Modern Movie Theaters you are watching streaming movies there.

I was thinking the same today myself Well he has yet to go on a mouth foaming crazy tantrum like summers8. His grammar and spelling hasn't gone to the level of first grader yet. Only a matter of time before his mind cracks like last time and he gets banned. The Grammar, spelling, and odd capitalization (or lack thereof) was intentional. It was rare but he would sling off a decent post here and there that conformed with most rules. He would misspell names on purpose to get under peoples skin. Either he was doing that knowing he might get banned or he had other socks and it was a way to mask it.
