7 Oscar noms for Black Panther

 

[harlequinade]

Could be more, actually lol thank God at least VFX and supp. actor were spared

 

[StarLord]

Folks genuinely triggered by BP noms. LMAO.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

would honestly be hilarious if BP did a clean sweep

or just best pic would be hilarious enough. either way, there will be salt.

 

[harlequinade]

By nominating Rhapsody they make me root for Panther. Anything but Rhapsody.

Roma is gonna win probably though even if it's imho unwatchable

 

[Chip Chipperson]

they could've had an all timer if they let Sacha Baron Cohen make the movie he wanted to about Freddie.

but of course Fox and the rest of Queen had to have their ego stroked and opted for the sexual predator director who barely even showed up for work.

Even after all the stories and allegations, they still gave it to Singer. Hollywood is completely tone deaf when it really matters most.

I openly admit to being salty.

It's not like I'm angry or anything but seeing BP up there makes me sad for TDK's snub.

still the greatest injustice to this very day

It's up there for sure since it's the reason why I'm salty as hell for BP's amazing achievement. But Golden Compass winning over Transformers was an even bigger travesty since it was the only one among the nominees that deserved the win while 2007 had some fantastic movies competing against TDK making it harder for the latter to make it to the top 5. I know the autobot & decepticon designs are hated by most people on here and in other places online but the vfx behind it was worthy of the win.

They snubbed Cooper for best director. lol Poor guy.

At least people over at r/movies will be happy.

I'm happy for those who loved Black Panther. It's a very good movie and it'll make an excellent winner of the production design & costumes category.

He could sympathy his way to ba win like Affleck did with Argo

Agreed about Costume Design and Production design nominations, if it wins in those categories.. it would be well deserved win.

I thought Wonder Woman should have been at least nominated for those categories, I was not hoping that it would actually win but not getting a nomination for Best Costumes and Production design was odd, just like they snubbed Aquaman's nomination in Vfx categories.

I’m cracking up at some of the reactions.

 

[harlequinade]

Hawke being snubbed is the worst thing other than BR in BP

 

[Micromind]

Wow, Mary Poppins getting a nomination for score.

Hope Spike finally gets his die this year.

Black Panther should win the costumes category without breaking a sweat. The Favorite might be a contender in this category but it'll be a boring win because period dramas with a costume win are dime a dozen. Ruth E Carter did an amazing job with the suits. African inspired costumes has never been done in such a large scale with such grandiose and level of detail. So the Academy should definitely reward it for being the first of it's kind and also for being great.

As for production design, I'm not sure about the win since I have no idea who is competing in this category against Black Panther but again like with the costumes category Black Panther introduced the whole world to afro-futurism. It's something new and it looked good for the most part so I'll definitely root for it to win or cause an upset.

While I personally didn't watch it yet, I heard tons of people who seemingly aren't biased against Marvel that it isn't Oscar Best Picture material. I tend to agree about their point that cultural importance isn't meant to override artistic merits.
That's why I'm okay when WW wasn't nominated based on the importance behind it.
But IMO it's still a welcomed gesture at a great platform.
It is what it is, no way people can change it. I applaud it and wish for the best.
Congrats!
It is a great step for CBM.

But I must admit that it will irk me when people will used it as a 'prove of superiority' in fanwar arguments.

Also what a ride for Bohemian Rhapsody.
From BTS drama to be heavily criticized to Rotten to Fresh to win awards and be Oscar nominated.

YAS ROMA!!!

Also, glad about BP noms.

No Tony Collete? Haberdashery!!

Welp. I take a look and many of them also very salty for its Best Pic nom.
If the salt is getting worse or there will be unbearable backlash towards it online, I could see myself turn from indifferent but congratulate it into rooting for it.
Me likey some underdog success stories.

But Roma is the impenetrable wall, not sure if the salt will be worse.
