not including costuming/effects/editing/score


Superhero movies never really get nominated for anything beyond special effects, make-up, music and things of that nature. The last time a superhero movie was nominated for directing, acting, or writing was all the way back when Heath Ledger won for The Dark Knight

but if there was ever a year where superhero movies deserved a nod, it's this year, with Logan and Wonder Woman being two of the best and most critically acclaimed superhero films ever.

I was really thinking Logan would manage to scrounge up a nomination (Best Actor for Jackman, Best Supporting for either Keen or Stewart) but now I'm really hesitant that'll be the case. I really hope so though.

Logan possibly, Wonder Woman definitely not.

see, that was my initial thought too

but now I almost want to say Wonder Woman has more of a chance. A lot of the articles I've seen about Oscar predictions don't seem to even mention Logan, while Wonder Woman mostly gets mentioned for the social impact of having a female superhero lead

That being said, I definitely think Logan deserves them, while Wonder Woman I'd hesitate to give any to. Wonder Woman was excellent but didn't really push the boundaries of superhero films. Logan was just an incredible film in general, and really brought home a performance 17 years in the making (which is 5 more years than Boyhood!)

Does Hugh Jackman deserve the nomination? Yes. Will he get it? Probably not.

This. Actually Logan is likely getting 0 nominatioms while Wonder Woman will get at least special effects and maybe one or two more, with an off chance of adaptaded screenplay, which is super weak this year. Aslo dat AFI nomination.
