Nope. It only might've had a nomination chance during a weaker year.
Infinity War is the superior film, & I doubt there's much movement to reward the MCU - after they've taken over the entire industry.

Black Panther got an Oscar nomination for Best Picture because the Academy was afraid of being labeled racist if they didn't nominate Black Panther. So if Joker receives an Oscar nomination for Best Picture, Joker will be the 1st CBM to receive an Oscar nomination for Best Picture based solely on merit and not on the use of any race card. Quiet stupid the adults are talking, go eat some mud in the corner like a good moron and shut it. It's not stupid at all. The Black Panther should never have been nominated. I think even the honest fans of that movie would agree. It's a middle of the road superhero film. At best.

Nope. It's a great, entertaining movie, but not an Oscar or awards-type picture. You know, it's not real "cinema" or have that good old liberal bias the awards folks adore.

Should it? Yeah.

I think even the honest fans of that movie would agree. It's a middle of the road superhero film. At best. It is stupid for the reason he said, as others pointed out the Academy nominated Blackkklansman and Green Book as well as Roma for BP, the diversity quota to avoid being called racist was covered, also the idea that the only reason it got nominated was due to racism is hilarious, could simply be it almost all the black members of the Academy voting for it due to the quote unquote "cultural significance" of the movie.
Personally I agree Black Panther was not a BP worthy film, it wasn't even the best superhero movie of the year let alone one of the best outright films of the year, but whatever, lots of films have gotten nominations they don't deserve based on quality but other factors, it isn't him thinking Black Panther didn't deserve a nom that makes him an idiot, it's the repetitive and ignorant argument he copy and pastes anytime Black Panther's nomination is mentioned, DC-Fan is a mindless crap spackle who just repeats the same tripe over and over again regardless of how many times the flaws and lies in said tripe he states is pointed out, seriously do not encourage his tom foolery.
But like I said yeah BP was not worthy of a BP nom in my opinion, doesn't make the morons bullshit any less moronic or bullshitty you know?

There's nothing "culturally significant" about Black Panther. The entire plot of Black Panther is "angry black man wants to strike back at the white men for a history of oppression".

No that's the villain's plot, not the entire plot, boil it down that simplistically as then TDK's plot is clown creates chaos and burn victim goes on murder spree because his girlfriend died, Joker is sad mental patient lives in his own world and has a breakdown violence may have ensued maybe, Logan's is generic mad scientist hunts down cloned children with a cloned adult as his attack dog, Wonder Woman is resentful older brother torments younger siblings because he's jealous, boil them down to their most simplistic and asinine descriptions possible they all sound lame.
Also what does plot have to do with cultural significance towards the first major near all black production mega blockbuster and highest grossing solo superhero movie of all time?

And you've just confirmed that Academy nominated Black Panther for a Best Picture Oscar because they were afraid of being labeled racist if they didn't nominated Black Panther. politicidal keeps trying to argue "Well, Green Book, BlacKKKlansman, and Roma were already nominated". But Green Book, BlacKKKlansman, and Roma weren't the "first major near all black production mega blockbuster" that you just cited Black Panther as. The Academy would've been labeled racist if they didn't nominate Black Panther regardless of the nominations for Green Book, BlacKKKlansman, and Roma because Black Panther was the high-profile movie, the "first major near all black production mega blockbuster" that you cited Black Panther as. That's why the Academy had to nominated Black Panther. Because the Academy knew they would be labeled racist if they didn't nominate Black Panther for a Best Picture Oscar. Heck, just look at what happened with the Iranian general who was just killed. Colin Kaepernick tweets his usual BS that the killing of the Iranian general was a racist attack by American imperialists against non-white people, Megyn Kelly calls out Kaepernick's tweet for the BS that it is, and then another black actress once again accuses Megyn Kelly of being racist. That's what the Academy was afraid of if they didn't nominate Black Panther and that's why the Academy has to nominate Black Panther. Black Panther's nomination was solely because of the race card and had nothing to do with merit.

It probably could have been with a good campaign, considering the last two movies to become the highest grossing of all time were nominated. But given the lack of precursor noms, that's a hard no.

Besides I wouldn’t use Megyn Kelly as a commentator on race relations when she’s too ignorant to understand why some might find blackface offensive.

The primary thing that made Endgame great was the culmination across multiple movies. It was a logistics triumph but it was largely the same movie as the rest of them with a smidge more higher stakes and This Is Us level drama. It was great to watch as an event though.

Yes, the Academy would've definitely been accused of being racist if they didn't nominate Black Panther for a Best Picture Oscar. Because liberals just love to use the race card. And Megyn Kelly is 100% right that Colin Kaepernick's tweets about the killing of the Iranian general being racially motivated is complete BS. But we don't have to use Megyn Kelly as an example. The night Trump won the election over Hillary, a CNN analyst claimed Trump won because the election was a whitelashing by whites to get back at blacks for voting in Obama in 2008. Once again, liberals used the race card. That's what would've happened to the Academy and that's what the Academy was afraid of if they didn't nominate Black Panther and that's why the Academy has to nominate Black Panther. Black Panther's nomination was solely because of the race card and had nothing to do with merit.

Nothing about Endgame qualifies it for Best Picture imo. Just like Titanic. Titanic is an epic period piece romance about class difference aboard the Titanic. On paper that screams Oscar.

They have shown to have a huge bias against not only comic book movies, but action movies in general (and horror). Black Panther has the sociopolitical commentary going for it and that is the only reason it got a pass.
