Will it be released in the USA?

Really this movie 5uck5.. but i think mexico won't send it to the oscar even when the academy may choose it (they aren't very good at choosing the best, everybody perfectly knows it).There are chances for this movie to get a nom in costumes and cinematography, but it is a longshot.

There are two probabilities more: Temporada de Patos and A day without a Mexican. I haven't seen any of those, but i think Temporada de Patos will be the best, the director has made some great videos (like mr pmosh), the movie did excellenta at Guadalajara and the music by Alejandro Rosso will be great!!!

A day without a Mexican seems to be a better choice, not because of the quality, but because of the controversial theme and the projection that it will have in USA, where it will be released this year..

So these are the three chances, if we want to get a nom we should send Zapata, it we want to do something risky but we may win we should send A day without a Mexican, and if we prefer to sen the best, there's Temporada de Patos

Who knows??? Mexico has send good films but never something risky, like when we sent Perfume de Violetas (good) instead of Y tu mama tambien (risky, but finally the academy loved it); and last year's Aro Tobulkhin instead of a very strange movie like Japon, that i think was a wrong decission: it is better to send a risky film (30% chances they loved it, 70% they hated it) than a regular film (10% they hated it, 10% they loved it and 80% good but nothing special)

"Arau has the opportunity to revolutionate mexican cinema industry by actually creating one. Up till now is the goverment who gives most of the money for movie production. Arau may convince mexican investors that investing in movies may actually be a good bussiness. Of course the quality of our cinema will tend to go down (in general) but the amount of jobs created is really worth it."

Actually the road was well paved by both Amores perros and Y tu Mama Tambien whose money came from private investors and they managed to give em big earnings despite being smart movies.
Im prety sure some of this new wave of comercial BS movies like Ladies nigth, sin ton ni sonia, asesino en serio are being produced py private investors who are making decent profits on acount of the movies being dirt cheap unnlike this multimillion crap who i dont see recuping its money on the Mexican market so i doubt it will help the industry, if anything it will give Arau a chance to do another american movie that doesnt go straigth to video.

I honestly think this didnt win an oscar, or came close
