I think that alot of people are getting a bit hot headed. YES, critics are idiots. Are we really supposed to follow one or two people's OPINIONS on a movie/book/whatever? I didn't think so. YES, Sci-Fi and Fantasy do not get many nods at any awards. But that's because not many people are interested in what we are, simple as that. Some people think it's just a dream we're trying to live, and that's fine, it's their opinion. And that isn't 100% un-accurate, I like to roleplay a Halberd-Wielding Halfling Warrior.

Also, keep in note, alot of people don't like the ideas of these videos because of their religion or morals. Magic is viewed as evil in this world, for the most part, just like it's always been. The future has always been interpreted wrong, and some people just don't belive in aliens and phasers and such. So, unfortunatley, these two genres might never get the recognition they deserve. I'd say be content that you enjoy the movies, and move on.
