How does One Battle After Another qualify for these awards? That thing cost almost $200M.

How does One Battle After Another qualify for these awards? That thing cost almost $200M.

They removed the limit on budget caps a couple years ago.

 

[Kane52630]

Per Variety, this is the third year since the Gotham Film Awards removed the limit on budget caps for awards consideration, which obviously worked in One Battle‘s favor. Before, the budget cap was a modest $35 million, which Anderson’s film exceeded by nearly $100 million. The rule change didn’t do much to benefit the $90 million blockbuster Sinners, which was largely shut out of the nominee list beyond Outstanding Supporting Performance nominee Wunmi Mosaku. However, Ryan Coogler’s vampire flick was announced among the “2025 Tributes,” with the cast recognized for the Ensemble Tribute.

I find the lack of Sinners disturbing.

Still, it doesn't really scream indie compared to those other ones.

PTA heads just get what they want, apparently.

If One Battle After Another is too mainstream for these, what does that make Sinners?

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

So yeah I'm calling it now, PTA total sweep at the Oscars in a few months.

And while he more than earned his first Oscar, Ryan Coogler did it better this year.

At least they're not competing against each other for Screenplay.
