User blog comment:The Mighty Thor/My outrage toward the elitist swine in charge of the academy of motion picture arts and sciences for subbing the 3 Marvel blockbusters of 2011!!!!!!!!/@comment-1618941-20120130002228

I'm not bothered. Thor was entertaining and Captain America was a mediocre yawnfest. When stacked against the likes of War Horse they won't stand a chance for nominations. X-Men: First Class was noticeable, but maybe not quite up to the quality needed to be competitive, and then there was Green Lantern... As far as the "stiff old farts who choose which movies get nominated at the oscars" are concerned you really just have to accept they are industry professionals who know their trade and you are nothing more than an armchair critic spouting your disgust from a position of bias. They didn't neglect the movies you claim to have been neglected. They looked at them objectively and picked what they felt was the superior choice.
