If any it will be for mske up or effects. I dont think it will ever win an important oscar. No CBM ever will. Doctor Strange was nominated for best VFX, but lost to The Jungle Book. But at the end of the day, Jungle Book deserved it, because it was 99% photorealistic CGI. I dont consider VFX an important category.

Maybe your's wasn't an absolute but mine was meant absolutely. Bark, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view. Anyway, I am ready to forgive an forget because of your elegant counter quote.

Don't worry, this isn't gonna become some Marvel fan club where you are only allowed to sing it's praise. If there's warranted criticism then there's nothing wrong with that. People should be allowed to criticize things without rabid fans tearing you down with insults or this tired mentality of "He just said something negative about a Marvel movie so now I have to tell him something negative about a DC movie even though it has absolutely nothing to do with what he just said". Likewise the same would be true the other way around as well. Sounds fair. I have to ask though, where does scabab name come from? DBZ related maybe? Poelzig is the guy in my avatar portrayed by the always awesome Boris Karloff. He was the villain in one of my favorite horror movies The Black Cat (1934) Nah my surname is Abbey and at school, one person called be Scabby Abbey. I never had any scabs, it's just the kind of thing that kids say. At some point it got shortened to Scabab and I kept it since. I do use a DBZ based name on some other sites called Bullza which is a combination of BUu, ceLL and frieZA.

A major Oscar was awarded to Heath Ledger for Best Supporting Actor in The Dark Knight. Because he died. So that must also be the reason why Paul Walker won an Oscar for Furious 7 and Anton Yelchin won an Oscar for Star Trek Beyond. . . . Oh wait, Paul Walker and Anton Yelchin didn't win Oscars. So an actor dying has nothing to do with winning an Oscar.

So an actor dying has nothing to do with winning an Oscar. Just another failed excuse by a jealous MCU fan. That's because Furious 7 or Star Trek weren't Oscar-worthy films, let alone any Oscar-worthy performances. They were just dumb fun action flicks. Meanwhile, I think Heath gave an Oscar-worthy performance as the Joker, but he only got it because he died. His castmates had campaigned for him to get it, so out of pity from the Academy, Heath got the nomination

A major Oscar was awarded to Heath Ledger for Best Supporting Actor in The Dark Knight. I forgot about that one. I stand corrected. But you must agree that CBM's in general will not get any nominations for Oscars? CBMs in general won't get any nominations for major Oscars. But every once in awhile, an outstanding CBM may come along that is Oscar-worthy.
In 2008, that CBM was The Dark Knight (and although The Dark Knight was snubbed for a Best Picture nomination in 2008, it did manage to get a major Oscar when Heath Ledger won for Best Supporting Actor). This year, that CBM is Wonder Woman.
The 2 categories that Wonder Woman is in contention for an Oscar nomination are Best Director and Best Picture. I think Best Director will be a longshot because that category has only 5 nominees. But Best Picture is a strong possibility because the Academy increased the maximum number of nominees to 10 after The Dark Knight was snubbed for a Best Picture nomination in the 2008 award year.
The Academy nominated 10 movies in the 2009 and 2010 award years but nominated only 8 or 9 movies in every award year after 2010. So if the Academy nominates 8 or 9 other movies this year, then they can still nominate Wonder Woman without having to remove another movie that they feel is worthy of a Best Picture nomination.
It could depend on the Golden Globes. 41 of the last 46 movies that were nominated for a Golden Globe for the "Best Motion Picture – Drama" category were also nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. (The Golden Globes last year did nominate a CBM for the 1st time ever for Best Motion Picture (Deadpool) but that was in the Musical or Comedy category, and only 13 of the last 45 Golden Globe nominees in the Musical or Comedy category were nominated for a Best Picture Oscar so Deadpool wasn't nominated for a Best Picture Oscar.)
So if the Golden Globes nominates Wonder Woman for Best Motion Picture in the Drama category, then it's highly likely that the Academy will also nominate Wonder Woman for a Best Picture Oscar.

So an actor dying has nothing to do with winning an Oscar. Yelchin's character wasn't important enough and the FF movies weren't as crazy hyped up as Nolan's flicks are.

' Alfred Hitchcock never won an Oscar, either. Guess the MCU's in good company alongside one of the greatest cinematic geniuses of all time. another deflection a la "Shakespeare never wrote an original thing (except for all his original plays)". Your statement is as clumsy as it is incorrect: Hitch never won Best Director, but he was nominated 5 times as such. And his pictures won prices in major categories, such as Rebecca (1940): Best Picture Academy Award (that's an Oscar); Hitch as a person also won the Academy Memorial Award '68. Apart from that, this argument is in itself nonsensical and fallacious: Hitch was one single man, the MCU is an empire of different people. The comparison is absurd per se. So I am afraid the MCU will not be in the good company of "one of the greatest cinematic geniuses of all time". Did you really think you can put fake lipstick on that piggy to better sell it? Who is the gullible purchaser for your misinformation? Will you take responsibility and apologize?

Yep, Hitch was nominated for Best Director 5 times, which is more than the total Oscar nominations for MCU. So weirdraptor's argument is a HUGE FAIL! LOL!!!

His argument isn't a failure because the OP thread specifically asked if MCU will ever win an Oscar. It never mentions anything about being nominated for one. Yeah, Hitch was nominated, but he never won. So as usual, and always, both you and Kool-Aid are wrong.

I think its obvious at this point that Tristan and DC-Fan are the same person.

If these forums have taught us anything, it's that if Marvel fans cry hard enough about something, they'll eventually get what they want (lookin' at you, mods). So my advice to the Marvel fans Community is to keep crying about your lack of Oscar wins. The Academy will eventually toss a pity Oscar your way.

Especially since they're not actually making any arguments. They're just shouting at me despite the fact I can't see their replies and will never care Not to mention Tristan's confession that he only exists to "torment the raptor."Tristan has an odd obsession with me, like he needs my attention to live.
