  • Nick Picks | Can the Academy Please Nominate The Hunger Games For Something?

    Despite being one of the most successful and acclaimed franchises of recent years, The Hunger Games has yet to be recognized by the Academy Awards in any categories.

    The Academy proved that they don't care about franchises anymore. 10 years ago, they gave LOTR 18 oscars, the Hobbit trilogy barely had a couple of noms in the technical category. I agree with your article, also the last Harry Potter film lost with a far more childish story that only because it was directed by Scorsese, had these nominations and won. It was only because of nostalgia, all bias. I also think that Jennifer Lawrence's performances in the Hunger Games films were far more thrilling than the ones the Academy recognized, and even though I haven't seen Joy yet, I think she deserves a nom for Mockingjay part 2. In the other hand, I think that the Hunger Games films weren't made for awards, but to tell a social critique of war, reality shows, blending influences from Greek and roman mythology with your typical teen love triangle, and the first strong female lead in a franchise since Harry Potter (undoing the damage that Bella Swan and Twilight did).

    After the success of the Harry Potter franchise, which spawned eight cinematic offerings across 10 years, the notion of long-lasting film series, not only appeasing fans as they grow up with these productions, but producers and studios too, who make millions upon millions of dollars, thanks to several back-to-back box office hits, is a rather enticing one.

    But with endeavours of this magnitude and longevity, comes a devotion from actors to portray characters across a number of years. It’s…
