The Dark Knight Rises TDKR Oscar Chances? - Part 1

[Tequilla]

I agree with this. In fact I said when this movie came out it would not be nomiated and the talk of Oscars was hype. I don't say that with an "I told you so," mentality, but only to point out that while it was a good conclusion to the franchise it was not to the level that the Dark Knight was.

The Academy really wants to recognize the smaller more "arthouse" style films as opposed to the blockbusters. But even then, if it is a blockbuster, it has to be spectacular. This was a good conclusion to the trillogy, but it was not on the level that the Dark Knight was.

Fans can enjoy and love the conclusion to this trillogy, but no it's not Oscar worthy.

Another oscar worthy What's that anyway ?

I don't doubt that the shooting may have played a factor in individual voters. But come on man the whole Academy membership votes in secret on these things. I don't believe there was some vast conspiracy to say "don't vote for that, we don't want the negative publicity."

Remember this post when Zero Dark Thirty gets nothing at the ceremony.
