Since Disney bullied the Academy into creating a "Disney's Most Popular Film" category just so Black Panther can get an a non-technical Oscar, that means the Academy will just give that award to Black Panther so Black Panther won't be nominated in the Best Picture category. So which movies will be contenders for a nomination in the Best Picture category this year?
I think these movies could contend for a Best Picture nomination:
A Star is Born
Beautiful Boy
Boy Erased
The Favourite
First Man
The Front Runner
If Beale Street Could Talk
Mary, Queen of Scots
The Old Man & the Gun
On the Basis of Sex
Widows

Where's the proof that Disney did this so BP can get an award?

Is BP going to win more Oscars than WW? sorry to rain on your schadenfreude parade: Wonder Woman has just won another award: the Hugo Award. comicbook.com/dc/2018/08/20/wonder-woman-hugo-award-2018/Don't forget that she beat MCU ass at other shows as well, including the prestigous Critics Choice Awards. Gal got it where it counts. |

Nothing in that article mentions Black Panther. So I ask again: Where's the proof that Disney did this so BP can get an award? |

Is BP going to win more Oscars than WW? Black Panther will be given "Disney's Most Popular Film" Oscar that Disney bullied the Academy into creating, but that participation award is as meaningless as the Miss Congeniality title. |

Gal got it where it counts. Sorry to rain on your parade as well, but more than one MCU film have been nominated and/or won Hugo Awards, including Guardians, Iron Man 1 and 3, Ultron, Civil War, Winter Soldier and The Avengers. Likewise, they've also won Critic Choice Awards as well. Its great Gal is getting them, but the MCU has already won 'em before |

So basically you're saying that Black Panther would be a contender of it weren't for the Best Popular Film Oscar?

There is no Miss Congeniality title at the Oscars, Ace. The criteria for the Best Blockbuster Academy Award will arguably be even more demanding than Best Picture. Not only will a movie have to be one of the best of the year, but it will also have to make a ton of money and delight audiences. No one cares about the Best Picture Oscar anymore because hardly anyone cares to watch them. The Best Blockbuster winner will be the talk of the town. |

No, the criteria will be less demanding. The only criteria for "Disney's Most Popular Film" Oscar is the film has to be an MCU film since the category was created specifically so MCU can get a non-technical Oscar. |

n Nothing in that article mentions Black Panther. So I ask again: Where's the proof that Disney did this so BP can get an award? I see DC-Fan is not replying to me again. It is pretty obvious BP will be on the shortlist along with Infinity War and Mission Impossible: Fallout. I'm not sure if any other movies are a shoe-in. |

Oh I know they'll be included. My point was calling out DC-Fan when he said it was specifically done for BP. |

So which movies will be contenders for a nomination in the Best Picture category this year? I think these 4 movies could receive a Best Picture nomination: First Man Mary, Queen of Scots On the Basis of Sex Operation Finale I say trust in his predictions...he's usually spot on with Oscar nominations. Isn't he? |

I thought nominees for most popular film were supposed to be popular. |
