For those who don't know The Boy and The Heron is the latest Miyazaki film that was released to critical acclaim but tepid audience reaction because it was too "weird". People here are probably aware of the Spiderverse animated flicks but not how massively overrated they're amongst online "cinephiles". Not only does this film have a rabid capeshit fanbase but it has also managed to rope in the wokes and the film twitter/letterboxd crowd (seriously it was the highest ranked film of all time on letterboxd).

Because Miyazaki's film had a lukewarm audience reception it was a genuine surprise it won over Across the Spiderverse. Suffice to say, these nerds are not taking it well . Some of the reactions.

What do you mean Across the Spiderverse didn't win best animated movie at the Golden Globes

WDYM ACROSS THE SPIDERVERSE LOST ????!!?!? they so wrong for that omg

__

genuinely cannot believe across the spiderverse lost

__

Across the Spiderverse was snubbed, wtf is the boy & the heron.

__

you're telling me Spider-Man Across the Spiderverse won…. nothing?

__

yall so fricking weird yall know its because spiderverse was mostly black and poc driven neighbors got a right to be upset LOL

__

Across the Spiderverse robbed

__

This winning over spiderman is insane

Of course, we also have weebs acting smug over this .

“spider-verse was robbed”

__

Preschool twitter fighting for their life of Across the Spider-Verse not winning

__

them miguel fics and the yt cop girl with the bang doesn't mean it deserved an award cope and seeth

Wait Spiderverse didn't win anything at the rigged Globes?

It was basically the equivalent of jangling keys for babies. Except for a certain demo instead

Now, this doesn't guarantee that The Boy and The Heron will win at the Oscars and apparently it only won at the Golden Globes because it has a more "International" voting body now. Spiderverse is still the frontrunner for the Oscars. Still, the meltdown would be 100x this if Spiderverse were to lose at the Oscars. Hope they act based for once and piss all over capeshit this year but I'm not holding my breath over it .
