“Avatar: The Way of Water,” the long-anticipated sequel to James Cameron’s best picture nominee from 2009, descends as the final major awards contender of the calendar year, angling to make a play in all technical categories and for best picture. With breathtaking visual effects and wizardry from his artisans, Cameron’s immersive film experience is a treat for audiences and industry voters.
While the new entry is sure to make another truckload of cash, Cameron’s first entry of the saga wasn’t a shoo-in for the Academy recognition, missing out on critical categories like original screenplay. It also lost both sound categories to “The Hurt Locker,” which were expected to be no-brainers. There’s no doubt respect for Cameron in the industry, with his undying love for movies and the boundaries he continues to break in visual storytelling.
Production design and visual effects have had a close relationship in the last decade of Oscar winners, the same way film editing and sound have found a connective kinship. As a result, those four categories seem like slam dunk nominations for “The Way of Water.”
Water world and Aquaman with endless narcissistic cash….
It could, but they'll probably snub him again.
No, because it is a Science Fiction movie and they absolutely hate those most of the time.
As if woke hollywood would have ever nominated a non woke movie for anything noteworthy. Lol. They will nominate it for best soundtrack and best catering.
