New York Times

The word specious has appeared in 32 articles on NYTimes.com in the past year， including on Dec. 8 in "Golden Globes 2026 Snubs: 'Wicked: For Good' Misses a Major Nomination，" by Kyle Buchanan. The article discusses 'some questionable box-officenods":

单词 specious 在当年一年里，登上过《纽约时报》官网 32 篇著述的版面，开元棋牌官网其中就包括凯尔・布坎南在 12 月 8 日刊发的《2026 年金球奖遗珠：〈魔法坏女巫：永志不渝〉错失重磅提名》一文。著述重心照顾了 “部分饱受争议的票房类提名”。

The Golden Globe honoring "cinematic and box office achievement" is a specious one， almost certainly added in recent years to include blockbusters that might not otherwise get their due. This makes it all themore surprising to see a well-regarded hit like "Superman" passed over for "Avatar: Fire and Ash，" a film that has not come out and has therefore made no money yet， as well as "KPop Demon Hunters，" a Netflix sensation that the streamer only put into theaters for two weekend-long stunts.

旨在奖赏 “电影艺术与票房双建树” 的金球奖奖项，自己等于名不副实的；该奖项险些深信是频年增设的，只为把那些无缘主流认同的票房大片纳入提名。如斯一来，口碑过硬的热点影片《超东说念主》反倒落第，就更让东说念主或然 —— 拔帜树帜得到提名的，是尚未上映、于今零票房的《阿凡达：火与烬》，还有网飞爆款《K-Pop 猎魔团》，而该片仅被流媒体平台安排过两次整周末的影院试水放映。
