Lastly, the Oscar nominations were announced today and, while none of last year’s superhero movies nabbed a Best Picture nomination, two of the biggest ones were represented rather broadly.
First off, Warner Bros. and DC scored three nods for “The Batman,” including Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Best Sound, and Best Visual effects.
