I just get this feeling that was the one oscar to represent the fantasy/adventure,sci-fi/comic book films. But who knows what will happen with some of the younger academy members.

I just get this feeling that was the one oscar to represent the fantasy/adventure,sci-fi/comic book films. Considering only a year has passed, I think it's a little premature to say that it will never happen again. There are all kinds of factors that come into play as far as who wins in what category, and oftentimes, it's about the competition. A performance or picture might not win in a particular year because it's got heavy competition whereas it might have won in another year because the competition isn't as good. Or a myriad of other reasons. I'm also not particularly into a particular "type" of film winning. /cs
