Ruthie Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I completely understand why something like TA wouldn't be nominated because it is just perfect summer popcorn fun. Not BP material. But TDK? It still makes zero sense to this day. It has everything a BP contender needs. TDK had "too many notes". And unlike it's historical intent, in this case that statement is apropos.

Lordmandeep Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 They sort of repaid Nolan with Inception with 5 awards. However was quite a slap when he got nothing for TDKR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 They sort of repaid Nolan with Inception with 5 awards. However was quite a slap when he got nothing for TDKR. They didn't repay him. They went out of their way to not nominate him for Director. Giant slap in the face. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Of the 2008 nominees, I would have given it to Frost/Nixon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hmm, what if TDK came out in December, maybe that would changed things. I think the Academy needs to look outside of Winter more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I think the Academy needs to look outside of Winter more. There is a lot of truth to that. Zodiac came out at the beginning of the year and got 0 nominations as a result. Had it been released in November/December, it probably would have received more recognition.
