China Naming Network - Eight-character Q&A - Why are there big and small years in the Oscar ceremony?

Why are there big and small years in the Oscar ceremony?

9 1 Oscar is really a young year, and the best film, such as the Green Book, is the balance and wrestling in the western "political correctness".

In fact, there has always been a saying in the film and television circle called Chinese New Year.

The answer is also simple. Compared with a large number of outstanding works in previous years, the quantity, quality and overall average level of literary and commercial films are not too high.

In fact, the awards of Class A film festivals all over the world are important awards for literary films and technical awards for commercial blockbusters.

How to understand this meaning?

Class A film festivals around the world include American Oscars, those best actors, best actresses, best movies, best foreign language films, best screenwriters and so on.

Most of the core awards of these film festivals are awarded to literary films, because they have humanistic care, realistic response, or artistic expression of human nature and director's self.

However, most commercial blockbusters, which are very good at the global box office, are hard to win the core film festival awards. Of course, there are commercial and artistic works such as Cameron's Titanic and Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings 3.

However, most commercial blockbusters, especially special effects blockbusters with bursting popcorn index, are hard to be shortlisted for important Oscar awards. Even if you are shortlisted for the Oscar, it is often a technical award. In fact, only these large films are rich.

For example, the best photography award, the best visual effect award, the best score award, the best art award, the best costume design award and so on.

9 1 Oscar is called off-year because 20 18 American movies, whether commercial special effects blockbusters or literary films as a whole, are not good enough, which is much weaker than in previous years.

Let's take a look at the films that were shortlisted for the technical prize. The last prize was The First Man on the Moon.

I have seen this movie, but it is actually just a wonderful performance of Hollywood science fiction movies. His breakthrough in film technology is far from mentioning such epoch-making American film works as Terminator 2, Titanic, The Lord of the Rings, The Matrix and Avatar.

Compared with Gravity Star in recent years, even the superhero blockbusters Neptune and Reunion 3 of 20 18, the level of special effects of the first man who landed on the moon is not so impressive.

The winner of the best sound award is Panther. Everyone knows why this movie was shortlisted (no Marvel superhero has been shortlisted for an Oscar before), and the music is really good.

But even in American commercial blockbusters, Black Panther's soundtrack is really excellent, but compared with Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars and similar Marvel superhero movies, it has not surpassed much!

Look at the Green Book, the literary film that won the best film.

This film has a high rating on a domestic rating website, reaching an astonishing 8.9 points, which is difficult for domestic films to achieve.

Moreover, most of the comments about this film are about "racial equality" and "universal values". Ironically, however, blacks and many groups in the United States believe that the Panthers or the Black Party should win the Oscar for Best Picture.

Even the Green Book won the "Political Correctness" award, and the film was actually adapted from a real event, which caused great controversy in the United States anyway.

This movie is actually very good only from the perspective of China audience. It is an American literary film that reflects the "political correctness" of the United States, with excellent shooting techniques and delicate emotional expression.

Other award-winning literary films this year, except for the best actor Lamy Malik Bohemian Rhapsody and the best actress Olivia Coleman in Beloved, are not controversial in the west.

Others, such as the Green Book, Best Supporting Actor, especially Black Party, unfortunately lost all kinds of awards, which caused great controversy in the United States itself.

Even if we don't talk about the "political correctness" of the United States, these American art films that won this year's awards are not far beyond the scope of Oscar art films.

Finally, it is natural that 9 1 Oscar will become a small year.
