Will John Carter Make It To The Oscars? He’s Still In The Running!

Many of us here at Geekscape thoroughly enjoyed 2012’s biggest box-office flop, John Carter. We hopefully influenced at least a few others to head out and see the film, but overall, almost nobody did.

There is however, a silver lining for both Disney and fans: John Carter is part of the Oscar race. The film had absolutely breathtaking effects, and it may just be recognized for that (which HAS to increase the movie’s popularity).

10 films remain in the running for best visual effects, and John Carter is one of them! Of course, only five of them will make it to the awards ceremony. The films still in the running are:

“The Amazing Spider-Man”
“Cloud Atlas”
“The Dark Knight Rises”
“The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey”
“John Carter”
“Life of Pi”
“Marvel’s The Avengers”
“Prometheus”
“Skyfall”
“Snow White and the Huntsman”
