Spider-Man: No Way Home attracted the level of love and enthusiasm that Army of the Dead, Cinderella, and Minamata did, so the ranking will come as a surprise to most.
Fans will be disappointed that Spider-Man: No Way Home didn't win the Oscars Fan Favorite award after many thought the category was created as a way to recognize the viral blockbuster. At least for the 2023 ceremony, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever holds the best chance, as the creators of the movie want to duplicate the success of the original.
No Way Home was expected to win the award, but Army of the Dead was the surprise winner. The success of the mass vote in Army of the Dead is being speculated on by many as a result of followers of the controversial filmmaker.
The Fan Favorite award is the first one to be based on a public decision.
Spider-Man: No Way Home was voted fourth for the first-ever Fan Favorite Film award by the general public.
Spider-Man: No Way Home was the subject of repeated calls to be recognized in the Best Picture, Actor, and more categories at the Oscars.
The influential blockbuster picked up nominations for its costumes, music, sound, and production design, despite being snubbed by the awards committee.
Justice League was ineligible for the award due to being a director's cut of a previous film, but it still won a prize. The Academy has introduced a new category, the Oscars Fan Favorite award, after snubbing a nomination for BestVisual Effects. The BestVisual Effects prize went to Dune, followed by the Legend of the Ten Rings and Spidey's latest adventure.
Army of the Dead Cinderella Minamata Spider-Man: No Way Home was the top placing movie. The franchise has always received recognition for its visual effects, but it has yet to win in the category. The film earned a Best Picture nomination at the Oscars. With only a few exceptions, most of the MCU's 27 theatrical entries have achieved great financial and critical success, but there's one area they've always struggled with: critical awards.
The streak of Oscar snubs continued for another year with no signs of slowing down. The best Cheer Moment was won by the Justice League. This isn't an actual Oscar win, but it earned the victors an acknowledgment during the ceremony.
This wasn't the only category that the studio lost out on tonight. Over the course of a decade, Marvel Studios has been at the forefront of Hollywood popularity.
