only reason they introduced it was to give it to Black Panther or some other superhero flick
it is such a misdirected idea and pointless. i mean look... the highest grossing film from 3 years ago; nobody will care about that film in 10 years. It will just be another middle of the road addition to the other middle of the road blockbusters. Transformers 4? Pirates 5? Star Wars 8 and 9? Are these really films you want to be associated with socially significant/challenging films. The only film on that list that was recognised by the academy was Titanic. And regardless if it's not the best depiction of the boat, it's still a significant film.
Dang, I was looking forward to who would win the 'Longest Single Shot of Someone's Thumb' award.
