Black Panther Best Pic Nomination & Into the Spider-Verse Best Animated Pic Nomination - the super hero genre has had an unbelievable 2018 I'm glad Black Panther is on the list and hope it gets nominated (but don't think it will) , but my top two snubs: Annihilation (sci-fi) and Sorry to Bother You (more sci-fi than you think, but understandably too esoteric to be nominated, but Shape of Water won best picture last year). I hope Quiet Place or Green Book win Best Picture. I certainly haven't seen all the movies on the list, but I feel "A Star is Born" is kind of overrated, though I was thoroughly impressed with Bradley Cooper as a director.

Gatsby77 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I absolutely think Black Panther will get a Best Picture nomination. The Academy has learned its lesson from the omission of The Dark Knight a decade ago and trying to subvert the process by attempting -- and failing -- to add a "Best Popular Film" category this year. With up to 10 Best Picture noms (although I don't believe they've ever had more than nine), Black Panther will be among them. I'm still rooting for A Star Is Born to win -- although I think Roma may ultimately win instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperheart Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) Coogler didn't land a Best Director nom from the Critics but he did get named to this short list: Black Panther co-writer and director Ryan Coogler, murdered Washington Post op-ed columnist Jamal Khashoggi and Russian ruler/alleged U.S. election influencer Vladimir Putin join President Donald Trump in contention for Time magazine’s Person of The Year 2018.

The first IM movie had a greater impact/influence on Ryan Coogler, director of BP. And here we are, 10 years later and hopefully BP will be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars.

I actually have a copy (kind of an impulse eBay buy) but it’s not graded. I like the character and I liked the movie but it didn’t warrant the media attention from a quality perspective that it received. Culturally I don’t think it was overly earth-shattering either.
