Wasn't even nominated
for best picture?
No, but the outcry is allegedly the reason as to why the Academy has since expanded the number of Best Picture nominees.

Because it wasn't even that good of a crime drama movie. It has very cringe-worthy moments in the script, obscene plotholes, and an very preachy over-the-top theme.
If you want a good crime drama that was nominated for an Oscar, try L.A. Confidential. It has action and non-super heroes.

Just out of curiosity, two questions: 1) If you could summarize the "over-the-top preachy theme" of TDK in a sentence or two, what would it be?
2) Does it bother you that the climax of L.A. Confidential (which I love, BTW) requires Dudley Smith to execute the worst-planned ambush in the history of ambushes in order for the end of the movie to play out? share
yeah no idea...
it certainly deserves some accolade for it's overall experience from start to finish... not to mention featuring one of the best performances in cinema
Stupid fanboys...
