Avengers: Endgame ended up having only one nomination in the recently concluded 92nd Academy Awards - for Achievement in Visual Effects. And it is another matter that it even lost that category to Sam Mendes' gritty war drama, 1917. To rub more salt to its wounds, its fiercest competitor DC Comics took home two Oscars thanks to Joker with Best Actor in a Leading Role (Joaquin Phoenix) and Best Original Score. But the matter doesn't end there. Oscar 2020 Broadcast Viewership Ratings Were All-time Low, 3 million Less Than the Previous Academy Awards.

Fandom, a site that updates its readers and followers with the latest news and developments in Hollywood, recently shared this trivia that Avengers: Endgame may not have won an Oscar. but it made history at the event. As you might be aware, Avengers: Endgame is currently the highest-grossing film of all time, beating James Cameron's Avatar last year. Oscar 2020: Marvel Fans Get Disappointed after Avengers: Endgame Bags Just One Nomination.

Fandom observed that while Avengers: Endgame may have been a global darling and an Oscar-nominated film, but it has also become the highest-grossing film to have not a single Oscar award in its kitty. All the previous highest-grossing films had at least one win to its kitty, with Titanic earning the maximum.

Here they are:

Titanic - 10 Oscars

Gone With The Wind - 10 Oscars

Star Wars: A New Hope - 7 Oscars

The Sound of Music - 5 Oscars

ET - The Extra-Terrestrial - 4 Oscars

Avatar, Jurassic Park, Jaws, The Godfather - 3 Oscars

Avengers: Endgame - 0 Oscars

If you looked at the above list, Avengers: Endgame is the only superhero film on there, and maybe that's the one thing that matters more to the Marvel fans.

Interestingly in Oscars 2019, Marvel had something to cheer when Black Panther managed to get seven nominations and won three (Best Costume Design, Best Original Score, and Best Production Design).
