Quick search also reveals that Avatar was nominated for 9 Academy Awards, which it won 3.

EndGame had better receive just as much, if not more nominations and/or wins, or else the Academy Awards are dated and obsolete.

Another quick search also reveals Infinity War only received a single nomination, which it did not win.

Well, there goes the Oscars' credibility and viewership. Down the toilet. [I need that Star-Lord emoji salute so much]

When the market is dominated by comic book adaptations and remakes of animated movies, you really expect specialized critic, or anyone who stops to think for even a minute, for that matter, to look at it and say "yes, this is it, surely this is the peak of the art of cinematography"?

On the other hand, take movies like Mad Max: Fury Road and Blade Runner 2049. Better than anything Disney has released this millenium, and they do show, much like Lord of the Rings - and Avatar, to some extent - that fantasy and science fiction can be well received by critics and win awards.
