Black Panther gets Oscar Nom for Best Picture, but not Buster Scruggs? Obviously, the academy believes TV ratings will be higher if they nominate a movie that most people have actually seen.

Lots of great movies never get nominated. No nomination list was ever met with approval from everyone.

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs received 3 nominations, including screenwriting for an anthology film direct to Netflix. Pretty good showing.

Black Panther being nominated is a joke. It was not even the best Marvel movie of the year.

Those general awards shows have been about politics for quite some time now and it's just getting worse in recent memory.

I seriously think Black Panther was a leftover from the Academy's proposed and then dropped "Best Popular Film" category.

Netflix put all their eggs in the Roma basket.
At least it got adapted screenplay.

I'm surprised they left two slots open. Could've slipped Infinity War in just in case.

Can you tell me when is the last time the Oscars had any validity for them to be losing it just now?

The only reason Black Panther is nominated is because the Academy voters are afraid of being called racists if they didn't nominate Black Panther.

It's about pandering along with bait-and-switch.

For the first time in a long time I kinda don't give a rat's ass about the Oscars.
All I need is for Glenn Close to finally win her LONG OVERDUE Oscar, and I'll be satisfied. I haven't seen the movie she's nominated for, just hand it to this woman, do it! The academy has been correcting a lot of oversights the last few years by giving Oscars to Julianne Moore and Leonardo DiCaprio so hopefully the trend will continue.

I stopped caring when Bill Murray lost for Lost in Translation
