The director of “Avengers: Endgame” has been pushing for the action film to win Academy Awards after “Black Panther” took home three Oscars last year.
The “Avengers” cast sweeping at the People’s Choice Awards just shows how good this movie is — we’ll just have to wait and see how it does at the next round of awards.
Hopefully, we’ll see the movie again at the Academy Awards.
