Sunday's 96th Academy Awards ceremony is expected to serve as a culmination of last summer's 'Barbenheimer' phenomenon, with Christopher Nolan's three-hour historical drama about J. Robert Oppenheimer — a nearly $1-billion hit — the clear favorite to win best picture. But the expected toast to this achievement of commercial event cinema comes at an uncertain time for Hollywood, as the domestic box office this year is off to a shaky start.
But for the first time in more than two decades, a box-office smash with a domestic lifetime gross of more than $200 million — 'Oppenheimer' — might actually claim the top prize. One has to look back all the way to Peter Jackson's 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' and Ridley Scott's 'Gladiator' for examples. And James Cameron's 'Titanic' before that.
