    One would be completely wrong in one's presumption.

    Studios don't care about Hugos; they care about Golden Globes and Oscars. Publishers care about Hugos, for the same reason that studios care about Academy Awards: they're useful in promotion.

    How much would Orci's politics would have to do with this supposed snub?

    Not one bit. There are people from all over the political map represented among this year's nominees.

    Besides should we really be concerned that Star Trek Into Darkness didn't get a nomination for a Hugo when Fuck Me, Ray Bradbury did get a Hugo nomination?

    No matter where you go, there you are.
    Fuck Me, Ray Bradbury arguably packs more entertainment into three minutes than STID managed in two hours*, so I'd say justice was done. :shifty:





    * I kid, of course.

    They're about even.
