for all the reasons you stated. Then it turned into standard vampire fare (which is a genre I admittedly hate) and I lost all interest.
Also, I was a little confused by MBJ's nomination, let alone win. I didn't see much in his performance that stood out to me, but then again, it was the only Oscar-contending performance I saw this year (I don't get out much...lol). My thought is that the Academy is sort of post-hoc recognizing MBJ's and Coogler's previous work - notably, Fruitvale Station (great film), which won Sundance only to receive zero Academy nominations.
