Every year, its the same thing: Science fiction films dont win Oscars.
Genre flicks dont play with the Academy.
Yet paying movie fans are still unhappy that their favorite movies rarely make the cut.
It lost most of the others to Danny BoylesSlumdog Millionaire, that years big winner at the Oscars.
He didnt get that elusive nomination forInceptiona few years later either.
Millers return to theMad Maxfranchise is a great story unto itself.
Clearly this is changing and not only for the science fiction genre.
It may be tough for this smaller film to compete with the higher profile ones mentioned.
Its hard to imagine it could get into the Best Picture race even if there are ten nominations.
