Dunno folks, I'm still not particularly convinced that it's gonna get nominated for BP. I'm just not entirely sure what makes it so different from stuff like The Force Awakens or Endgame. I just can't quite find a comparable blockbuster nominee. It doesn't have the tech breakthroughs of Avatar, the social relevance of Black Panther or the originality of Inception. countjohn's pithy and rather perfect description of it as a 'boom boom action movie' has really stuck with me in regards to the film's BP chances. Yes, it's a massive hit and a huge crowdpleaser but will that be enough for it to make a splash outside of the techs? Especially with the aforementioned Avatar and Black Panther having their sequels released? Will the industry really go all the way for it? |

While The Force Awakens and Endgame were massive hits, they still had the baggage of being yet another installment of a long-running franchise in sci-fi/fantasy/superhero genres. I’d say Maverick is closer to something like Fury Road, which had the benefit of having significant distance between it and the previous films in the Mad Max series. Not only that, but it surpassed expectations and is largely viewed as the best of the series. Maverick is also something that completely surpassed expectations, and is perceived as a significant improvement on its predecessor. Plus, it has a ton of passion across demographics, it brought older audiences back to theaters, and has penetrated the pop culture discourse in a way films rarely do these days. It’s absolutely getting nominated. Also, I think it will be very hard for both Cameron and Coogler to achieve something greater than what they did with their first movies. I don't doubt that both movies will be successful and well-made, but I have a feeling AMPAS will feel like they already rewarded Avatar and Black Panther and this is "more of the same." |

I'm somewhere in the middle of you guys. Think it gets a BP nom, but definitely not Top 5.

I don't doubt that both movies will be successful and well-made, but I have a feeling AMPAS will feel like they already rewarded Avatar and Black Panther and this is "more of the same." But Fury Road was also seen as this incredible feat of imagination - a truly visionary achievement that managed to be both exciting and different. My concern is whether the voters will perceive Maverick as something more than just a very good blockbuster. It may have brought older audiences to theatres and it may have passion across demographics but we're still talking about the Academy here and not People's Choice Awards. Sure, the AMPAS tastes have been experiencing a shift but even with that in mind I still don't really see a comparable BP nominee. I think it can get a BP nomination for sure but I definitely wouldn't use words like 'absolutely' when talking about its chances. The Force Awakens really seems like a solid comparison to me - insane hit, very well reviewed, extremely beloved when it came out (the vitriol started later), seen as a big improvement over the prequels. I mean, it was so well liked that the BFCA even desperately threw in a last-minute BP nomination for it. The only difference between them for me - and it's admittedly a big one - is that TFA came out very late in the year while Maverick has been enjoying its success for months. Maybe that'll pay off in the long run. I must point out that I would love for Maverick to get nominated - I think it's a terrific movie. I'm just not sure where all of this confidence comes from. |

Outside of the massive critical and commercial appeal, I think it will be embraced because of the practical effects, Tom Cruise old school movie star pull, and viewed without any superhero or sci-fi/fantasy bias. |

Maybe that'll pay off in the long run. I must point out that I would love for Maverick to get nominated - I think it's a terrific movie. I'm just not sure where all of this confidence comes from. Well, I’m not saying Maverick is exactly like Fury Road, just that I think it’s closer to that than those other two films because of the distance between it and the previous installments that I mentioned. I don’t really see it like The Force Awakens because while it was perceived as a big improvement on the prequels, it still had to live in the shadow of the original trilogy. When it came out, I remember plenty of people thinking of it as just a well-done remake of A New Hope. Plus, while Top Gun is still an unrealistic action movie, I can see how voters might gravitate more towards that than The Force Awakens because they might perceive it as more “grounded” than Star Wars, which is still more overt fantasy. I saw someone describe Top Gun as “Marvel for boomers” which I think is pretty apt, and that demographic is still a big part of AMPAS’ voting body. It’s true that we're still talking about the Academy here and not People's Choice Awards, but given that we have people like Luca Guadagnino and people you wouldn’t expect praising Top Gun, I have to think a lot of the passion among general audiences carries over to other AMPAS members... |

As I remember, when it came out people weren't really concerned with TFA's similarities to A New Hope, they were just loving it. That spread after a certain period of time if I'm not mistaken. And isn't Maverick largely a well-done remake of Top Gun?  I dunno man, I would expect Guadagnino praising Maverick since he's a big fan of genre movies and has even gushed about stuff like Verbinski's The Lone Ranger in the past. Ditto QT. I mean, I remember pretty much all of Hollywood's twitter accounts creaming their pants about A Quiet Place when that was out and at the end of the day it couldn't even get two Sound nominations despite sound being its most praised aspect. But anyway, that's just me digressing. I really hope that everyone's pre-season expectations are right and that Maverick gets in. It's an awesome movie and it'd be nice for Bruckheimer to get a big nomination like this after all that he's given to the audiences and to the industry. Heck, at this point I am predicting Maverick for a nomination  I just have... such doubts. |
