Our least favorite Oscar does more bad things, this time even before the awards are dished out.
will likely go unrecognized if the 94th Academy Awards show sticks with its decision to focus on categories where genre film has traditionally been ignored. By pre-recording these award categories the Academy is signaling that these awards are less prestigious, important, or even engaging, which is an insult considering that these awards celebrate the craft of filmmaking itself and the details that go into the production behind the scenes and behind the camera.
By standing by the choice to eliminate the live broadcast of the categories where genre film excels, the Academy threatens to alienate the filmgoers who love films year-round, not just at awards season. There is still time for the Academy to reverse this decision.
It feels a little wild to have to come to the defense of genre films, as if they don’t make the most money, inspire the most virulent fandoms, consistently push filmmaking forward on a craft level, and create universality through metaphor, but here we are. Science fiction and fantasy films are good films, at times even great. While Hollywood might not be ready to give Villeneuve top honors,the only film on the docket that received more nominations than the Frank Herbert adaptation.
