While Marvel Studios is hopeful that Black Panther (and maybe Avengers: Infinity War) will receive some love at the Oscars next year, things got off to a good start for both movies last night at the People's Choice Awards.
While Black Panther was the favourite heading into the awards ceremony, it was actually Avengers: Infinity War that was named both "The Movie of 2018" and "The Action Movie of 2018." Scarlett Johansson, meanwhile, ended up being crowned "The Female Movie Star of 2018."
Don't worry too much about T'Challa and company, though, because Chadwick Boseman ended up winning "The Male Movie Star of 2018" and The Walking Dead's Danai Gurira was awarded "The Action Movie Star of 2018" for Black Panther.
These awards were obviously voted on by members of the general public so it will be interesting now seeing whether or not the Marvel Studios movies fare as well with critics and various award bodies.
Do you think Avengers: Infinity War and Black Panther were worthy winners?
