But the Return of the King swept the Oscars in 2004.

Because there would have been a revolt among the masses if it had been ignored like the previous two LoTR movies had. It was almost as if the Academy went, "FINE! We'll give the Oscar because I don't want some geek to slash my tires in the morning."

But look at Oscar's history, it doesn't like sci-fi/fantasy in general. The LoTR was almost ten years ago, when has a sci-fi/fantasy movie made big since then at the Oscars? And better yet, when was the last sci-fi/fantasy movie that made big at the Oscars before that movie? Good luck finding one.

True.

Avatar did decently, but that had far more to do with James Cameron than it did with the sci-fi aspects.

...oh my god it's been ten years since the Return of the King.

Inception, District 9, Star Wars all got best picture nods. Not 'hard' scifi, but still...Fantasy is a bit broader, because most 'dungeon and dragons' fantasy aren't appealing to a wide audience/isn't taken seriously. But movies with fantasy elements are definetly not snubbed.

Out of curiousity, what scifi/fantasy films do you think should've gotten Best Picture noms/wins?

I'm pretty sure that's what mekkio meant by "made big"--none others have won since ROTK.
