There will be one major award for movies you actually watched and liked. The award will be selecting the best quality movie out of several that you know and care about. The viewers will be able to celebrate and praise the best of the popular movies in that year. Some combination of quality and popularity is not a bad balance to have.
We can review past years to show this is an interesting and worthy category. I think the movies that would have been nominated for the award in prior years are not an embarrassment and would have been made interesting viewing.
Which movies could have won this outstanding popular film in previous years
The new category is for outstanding achievement in popular film. Eligibility requirements and other key details will be revealed later.

Alternative would have been to continue to intentionally dismiss what is both good and popular
Hating what the fans like is the path of Star Wars the Last Jedi.
As Yoda said – Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
Do not be surprised when your Hate leads to suffering in the television ratings or movie box office.

What has happened to the movie industry is the same as what happened to the arts decades ago. It is no longer talent, quality and artistic skill but having the correct political message and views.
