Fecking hell. I've not seen Lady Bird or Get Out so can't comment on them, but no way in hell BlacKKKlansman and Black Panther deserve to be that high on that list. BlacKKKLansman was a fine film, nothing special, but well made and interesting. Black Panther, as others have said is a fine-to-mediocre Marvel entry, nothing more, nothing less.

Yes. And one side is portrayed by the media as woke, progressive heroes and the other side are painted as ignorant, bigoted villains. .... when in reality they are pretty much the same. Just two different sides of the same moronic, race obsessed coin.

I don’t think anyone was portraying black people as woke if they were voting for a black guy just because he’s black.

Good lord... I thought you were kidding. I thought this was a joke, so I went to rotten tomatoes, and that’s... actually the list.

it was entertaining, I wouldn't call it bad by any stretch (the CGI was absolutely atrocious tho)

But people were blowing it up like it was Citizen Kane or something....The fight scenes aren't well done, like at all, the story has massive plotholes, etc..

Its got literally nothing on Blade II for instance

Out of all the comic book adaption movies out there, you bring up Blade 2

still, by far and it's not close, the best action choreography of any Comic Book (none the less Marvel movie) ever...

Donnie Yen bless

I've not seen Blade II, but the first Blade has held up surprisingly well, aside from all the late 90s Matrix-esque long leather coats, sunglasses and European techno.

Good fight choreography, likeable characters, well shot, no crowbarred in love story, not super long either (think it comes in under 2 hours, in fact.)

I'd argue it is a far better, or at least far more FUN film than Black Panther. Tis made all the more funny that Black Panther was being marketed as "zomg, the first EVER black-led superhero movie" like Blade 1-3, Spawn and Steel never existed. Wasn't even the first black-led Marvel one!

This seems so strange. There's some major flaws in that movie & I liked it n stuff but no way is it movie of the year.

What I'm about to say is based on "observation"... & not prejudice... but the way predominantly black schools in the US were showing it to their students & the way the "black community" took it under their wing... I think is the reason this thing got the nomination. Not based on the movie alone.

It reminds me of a rather disturbing conversation I had with a black guy when Obama first ran for the US presidency. When I asked why he was voting for Obama, he said it's because he wanted to see a black president.

OMG! Dude had no idea what his agenda was or any information whatsoever about where he stood on all the topics, but his only source of reference was that he was black. That's messed up. It's the leader of your country dude... wake the fuck up & see what he standz for before you cast a vote ffs.

I think the "black movement" or whatever you want to call it, is the one & only reason this film is getting this nomination. This seems very obvious. I almost feel like I'm being way too obvious & it's not even worth my post because it's so obvious... but this is my way of dancing around the elephant in the room while pointing right at it. I don't know how the movement got so powerful as to attract this kind of attention. According to Wikipedia, they are 12% - 15% of the US population. I get the movie moved them, but damn... lets get real with our nominationz.

I'm pretty sure it was a combination of him being black and a Democrat that got the black vote.
Black people weren't lining up to vote for Herman Cain, Ben Carson, or even Al Sharpton when they ran.

Just lol at acting like the Oscars always nominates great picks..there are always odd or shit picks that get in there based on who knows what. Look at some of the movies that have been nominated and won in the past...Avatar..Lord of the Rings..Crash..Shakespeare in Love..Shape of Water...etc etc. Movies are a matter of preference. So who cares? I usually make it a point to watch all the Best picture nominees, and there is always a few turds in the mix
I'm almost ok with this nomination just because it makes way for super hero movies to be taken seriously.

So you're not okay with the best selling movie of all time getting a nomination? You're really rolling against the river on this one.

Lord of the Rings is a problem?

You make some points with the others.

I don't need a breakdown on your personal preferences... the masses have spoken over time & they like Avitar.

Overlooking those 2 examples I mentioned... okay I see they've made some strange choices... so I see your point there.

Obviously IW was way better but unfortunately, there were only a few black people in the cast.
 
Are black people going get black guilt from benefiting from white guilt?

Yeah, the praise for Black Panther is really weird. It's mainly a bunch of white people treating blacks as though they're encouraging children, ignoring decades of celebrated work, it's really embarrassing.

it's a very average movie at best.
 
Sucks
Did not watch it because I generally don't like superhero movies because I am not 12.
But if you like superhero movies that's fine, not trying to put anyone down.
 
The Academy trying to prove it loves Blacks by giving Kevin Hart shit about joke tweets he did years ago and nominating a popcorn flick with a mostly Black cast.

In the wise words of Mel Gibson - Its the jews that dunnit i tell ya!!

 
Logan in 2018 should have been the first superhero film to get a best picture nomination.

Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart both should have gotten best actor and best supporting actor noms.
