And the studios make it worse with the way they release Oscar bait films. Most people don't have a real chance to see so many of them in theaters before the nominations are announced so the end result is the general movie audience feels no connection to the movies in contention.
Why most popular movies don't get nominated by academy award? mike255 Jan 27, 16:09
It celebrates cinematic achievements not business achievements. {nm} Prophecy Jan 27, 16:53
many big box office movies go after the lowest common denominator, LCD base. MTV has awards for that. {nm} Baron_Darcon Jan 27, 17:39
That's what the People's Choice Awards are for. {nm} warcraft86 Jan 27, 17:55
It's why I don't care about the Academy Awards as it generally awards movies nobody cares about. {nm} Phillips Jan 27, 21:47
What are you talking about? I generally love the types of movies that get nominated for awards. {nm} DTshakes Jan 28, 00:30
Box office totals. {nm} Phillips Jan 28, 15:09
Does it matter? The Oscars are getting less and less relevant every year. 95% of the people don't even know what won best picture last year mrbeankc Jan 28, 01:29
And so many of the ones that do win aren't shown in but a few hundred theaters. {nm} Dorfman Jan 28, 07:13
I remember when people accused the academy of being slanted towards blockbusters. {nm} The Force-Ghost of DTravel Jan 28, 13:18
