@houstonEuler Yup you’re right, thanks for pointing out the typo! I added the 3 categories Dune was nominated but didn’t win when copying over my other question (for wins), but missed that wording. It’s fixed now:
@NeilG It happens! Not sure about the best examples off the top of my head, but e.g. Top Gun: Maverick got more nominations than Top Gun. If you extend beyond direct sequels, Fury Road got a bunch of noms and the first 3 films I assumed weren’t recognized much. (But definitely not the norm. I assumed that was the case for LotR but it was only wins, in terms of noms they didn’t increase for the final one)
@Ziddletwix yeah, I would figure back to back sequels that the sequel falls in lead movies shadow ( we've already seen this, not better than part 1, cultural moment has moved on), but that much later sequels, like Top Gun Maverick are seen as "new", with the nostalgia boost
