MovieFone: The much vaunted Oscar bounce ain't what it used to be.
Within the last decade, a movie nominated for Best Picture could expect to see its grosses rise as much as 50 or 60 percent at the domestic box office during the month between the nomination announcement and the Academy Awards ceremony, and maybe another 20 or 30 percent after the trophies are handed out. That's a lot less likely today.
Shaz from FL writes: “The Academy Awards are just around the corner, and if recent shows are any indication, Oppenheimer will be taking its biggest prize. But should it?”
Oscars 2023 might witness new rounds of celebrations, accolades, and the usual reminiscence of the Slapgate fiasco.
