I said Marvel's movies aren't Oscar material. Then you ask me to explain why Mad Max got nominated and Guardians didn't (even though that came out in 2014). They're two very different movies.
Um...I didn't say anything. Can't a guy just sigh and roll his eyes without someone taking it personally? Geez, relax. You're so uptight

Someone once told me Star Wars sucked and GotG was great and that made my blood boil, however.

I'm sure you thought that would upset me.
Think again. You're only proving how incredibly butthurt you are. I don't even understand why you're upset.

I like you. I hope you stick around

GOTG was poorly acted by most of its leads. Great in every other way, but yeah... As for the Fury Road bias, chalk it up to Girl Power.
Yup. That's definitely a card at play.

I haven't seen The Revenant but it's been a long time coming. I'm happy for him. Double points for making his acceptance speech about an actual issue instead of the usual stuff.

Oh hey, look. It's someone calling me a kid to discredit my opinion.
Never saw that one coming. Just like that super edgy reaction meme.

It's a factor to at least consider. Not the entire reason; its a well made film.

No it is not a factor to consider at all. Wtf does having an awesome character who happens to be female have to do with them winning sound editing, costume design, etc? Nothing.

Just ignore him, his posts mean nothing to the overall discussion on this thread.

I think this years Oscars was great, Chris Rock did a great job hosting, and poking fun at all the racial stuff.

Shut the hell up. Not only did I never do anything wrong to begin with. The argument (if you can even call it that) ended quite some time ago.
Go spam the PD section or something.

The question was what makes it stand apart from comic book & other sci-fi/fantasy romp-fest films in the eyes of whomever runs these things. & my answer, "Chalk it up to Girl Power", is most definitely a small part of that.

There may have been a slight miscommunication between me and my homeboy Krutch.
I was solely talking about Mad Max' nomination for best picture in comparison to today's superhero movies.
Spoiler:
I'll never forgive you for dissing Star Wars though.
