It was a boring movie that perfected the Marvel formula but didn't really do anything new or award-worthy. The CG in Dr Strange 2 looks better than what was in this movie. The music was the same ol' shit. The script was the same ol' comedy/sci-fi shit. The relationship between Strange and Peter was contrived. They knew each other for like two hours before being dead for 5 years. Then they fought together for 20 mins. Bringing in Raimi stuff was obviously just bait because multiverse shit is so hot right now. Dafoe was good because its' Dafoe but he was also the Joker.
Disney will own the Oscars eventually anyways. It's not like they matter either. Pixar and their animated movies already get automatic awards every year. It's only a matter of time before capeshit gets its own award.
The Oscars used to be an inside thing that only Hollywood sickos cared about.
Now its a spectacle that's about telling people what movies are good. Movies that win awards get a second life on screen and via rental. I'm amazed this shit didn't happen sooner. Although with Best Picture going to shit like Dances With Wolves and Birdman, I guess one could argue it kinda already had.
Still, in a capitalist culture where "Makes The Most Money" is supposed to signal "Is The Best Thing", someone has to square the contradiction between some low-budget drama about the South Korean servant class earning a meager $30M at the box office while beating out Star Wars IX, New Jumanji, and Sonic when they all topped $120M.

They're already gonna do it. I actually thought this category was already implemented because I remember the buzz back when they first announced it.
What a useless category lmao

The fight scenes were so bland that I saw a gif of one of then posted a week after I saw the movie and didn't remember the scene from the movie.
I'm amazed they don't just do their own incestuous Disney Awards for Best Disney Movie or some shit. They crank out enough of them every year.
