These are fun movies, I enjoyed all of them, some more than others.

I do wish that Megan Fox was in the new films instead of Bryce Dallas Howard. I really think nepotism is going on here.

In popcorn films let's get some eye candy. Look at who Marvel casts: Scarlet Johansson, Elizabeth Olson, Brie Larson Cobie Smulders, Tessa Thompson...get with it Universal!

Bryce is hotter than most of them imo

I asked another Jurassic Park/World fan my question, and he responded with:

I think it's unfair to blame her. She's a child, she made a empathetic decision on morality. Plus, ultimately they're just animals - not blood thirsty monsters. They don't belong in the Californian countryside, but that doesn't justify the death they were facing.

Really. I thought she was good in Transformers and jennifer's Body. It's not like Jurassic World is Shakespeare. This is a popcorn film and as such I'd like to have some eye candy.

I guess I’m one of the few people who actually enjoyed Fallen Kingdom.

Hey now, the visual effects and cinematography are pretty great.

DanTheMan · 11-07-2018, 04:44 PM

Someone over at Universal took “Academy Award winner: Suicide Squad” a bit too seriously.

imsounoriginal · 11-07-2018, 04:45 PM

Studios can campaign for whatever they want, it doesn’t mean anything.

I do think it deserves serious consideration for VFX and the Sound categories, but that’s about it.

Creed · 11-07-2018, 04:46 PM

It really doesn't mean anything.

Sure, a VFX or sound nom, but nothing else.

Cremildo · 11-07-2018, 04:47 PM

It's embarrassing. Unless it was a contractual obligation, they could have done it like this: "FYC in all categories including..." and then emphasized the ones in which it stands a chance, like VFX and sound. That's what Warner is doing with Ready Player One.

JWFK over A Star Is Born for best picture in the biggest upset in Oscar's history.

samlop10 · 11-07-2018, 05:06 PM

At this point, with the way the Oscars are going, I’m not really surprised at this, or anything, anymore.

As much as I liked the movie though, that still made me laugh. It’s a great and fun blockbuster IMO, but not a great piece of fine cinema. The Academy is too snobbish anyway to even consider it. Plus the fact that it’s a sequel doesn’t help either.

I can see some of the categories being reasonable though, like the technical ones, cinematography, and even though he definitely won’t get it, J.A. Bayona’s directing, which I thought was the best since the original.

levcore · 11-07-2018, 07:04 PM

I don't even think this deserves a nomination for vfx. They were really inconsistent.

aiman04 · 11-07-2018, 10:34 PM

This just confirms it, studios just submit all their films for best picture consideration.
