Oscars set to make a few changes beginning with the 2020 ceremony. The biggest of which is what will more or less be called the "Most Popular film" category which will give a chance to blockbuster films that have been shut out by the academy such as science fiction, horror, and superhero films. No word yet on the parameters of the category and what the eligibility requirements will be.
They're also set to have the Oscars telecast only be 3 hours long starting in 2020 and to have a lot of the "lesser" awards be announced during commercial breaks with the winning moments then being edited and aired later during the telecast.
They're also set to move the Oscars date up a couple of weeks as well. The 2019 Oscars are set to air February 24, 2019. The 2020 Oscars will air on February 9, 2019, one week after the Super Bowl.
