Both Oscar viewers and Academy members have long thought there was a difference between Best Photo competitors and the movies people watch. Just two years ago, the school hopes to solve the problem received with the new "Outspecential Achievement in Popular Film" award, a straightforward drama Avengers: Infinity War in the mixture. The idea was finally entertained when public criticism arose over the definition of "popular".
Although the Academy does not add this category, the last two years of naming have shown that the movies people watch and the Academy they want to honor are approaching again. Compared to 2009, when Dangerous Lock is famous for winning Best Photo An avatar after earning less than $ 17 million, the Academy & # 39; s 2020 Best Image nominees brought in more cash at the box office than previous competitors. The films are the same Joker, Once Upon a Time … Hollywood, and Ford v Ferrari they are only good for a year, and they are very big.
Most of today's cause for alarm among Oscar prognosticators and critics began in 2015 when the nominees liked Adolescence
While criticism has remained largely unchanged over the years, leading to the demand for Oscar Favorites, the 2016 nominees have sustained low returns over the past year. Movies like Mad Mad: Fury Road, The Martians, Agreement, again Bridge of Spies they were the most acclaimed movies and hits office. Due to the spread of these nominees the box office has grossed over $ 800 million, with the exception of one movie pressing it to reach its highest.
Rumors that the Oscars were special people went up significantly with the results of 2017 and 2018 which both came in at about $ 650 million when they were announced. However, it is important to note that since their after-school awards are no longer laughable, each of those two years managed to cross the $ 700 million mark at the domestic box office. TV ratings are contributing to the fear of elitism, too: the low tendency to watch the Oscar ceremony – that of you more than 30 million viewers in 2017, and another 26 million in 2018, the cutest year ever to be named – is often called Best Photo contestants for people who are "blind."
The first real departure from the trend occurred last year when Best Photo nominees fell in love Black Panther, A Star is born, again Bohemian Rhapsody turned into stinging obstacles, with the total number of teams over $ 1.3 billion. Black Panther alone contributed about 700 million barrels themselves. To add support to the higher concept of Best Photo value, the show's ratings go up about 30 million viewers by 2019 of course.
Last year he also introduced a new issue of streaming jobs in the Best Photo Race with Netflix & # 39; s Rome. While Rome was found in a select few agencies in the United States, whose home content is not concrete. And like every other show and movie it has, Netflix didn't want to share any exact numbers of how many people were watching Rome. Nielsen, who has been following Netflix for the past several years, tells it NBC News that 3.2 million US households watched Roma
Winners of the Best Photo Award this year enjoyed the same success. Ford v Ferrari they fell over $ 110 million, as well Once Upon a Time … HollywoodMore than $ 140 million. The Joker made $ 334 million domestically – and overseas – for the season 1917 it has made nearly $ 40 million in just a few days of extensive releases. Or Young Women has the potential to break the $ 100 million mark, with the Korean game The lungs setting $ 25 million in the US, the most bizarre movie in English languages.
All this year's success brings its total to almost $ 745 million internally, and that's just seven broad field releases, from The Story of Marriage and An Irishman both were released on restricted Netflix. Most importantly, each of these films is sure to get a big jump as the Oscar season begins and the Best Photo race continues.
While the Best Photo tissue will not take a full year's total to the amazing length of the year – the 2020 nominees would have passed their predecessor if it hadn't. Black PantherSurprising return – there is reason to believe that this year's nominees could exceed $ 800 million.
With two years of Best Photo nominees lined up for impressive Box Office numbers, it seems like the Oscars may be heading for a new direction. The idea for the famous Oscar Oscar movie may have died out, but the Academy may have taken the idea behind. But that another year of boxing success will actually lead to another year of increased ratings for viewers. They may have seen the movies, but now it's a question of whether they stick.
