all the decades of our lifetimes have lots of bad choices

Not ONE movie from the last thirty years that won was my favorite movie from that year lol. Award shows = popularity contests.

Moonlight beating that corny ass overrated La La Land bullshyt is still my favorite Oscar moment tho.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Goes to show the Oscars have been pulling the okey doke for way too long. I think I'm done with em.

 

[mastermind]

Moonlight, Spotlight, and 12 Years a Slave are all timers.

Birdman is one of my favorite movies of the decade.

What's crazy is that the 90s is arguably the best decade of movies ever and yet its Best Picture winners are so weak. The 70s were the last time they got it mostly right

Every decade has it's duds. In the 90's, Forrest Gump should not have beaten "Pulp Fiction" or "Shawshank Redemption" and "Shakespeare in Love" should not have beated "Saving Private Ryan". In the 2000s, "Chicago" shouldn't have won over "The Pianist" or "LOTR: The Two Towers" and "Crash" shouldn't have beaten "Munich"...haven't seen "Broke Back Mountain, so I can't speak to that. And I thought "There Will Be Blood" should've beaten "No Country for Old Men".

So this decade is not different. The last 5 years were all questionable to me.

There is a difference between shouldn't have won and man who is watching this shyt. Whether or not you thought Forest Gump should have won its undeniable its a great movie.

I disagree. Last year, though.... Dunkirk and Get Out were clearly the best films. 3 Billboards, and Phantom Thread were better than the winner. Didn't see Lady Bird, but heard fantastic things about it. The Shape of Water winning was laughable. At least Green Book was better than some of its competition.

still mad that Don't Be A Menace didn't get nominated in 1996.

I thought Shape of Water was fantastic while Three Billboards was absolute shyt that insulted me from start to finish, Dunkirk contained some scenes that were remarkable technical achievements but that's it and as much as I personally loved Get Out it was lucky to even be nominated.
Lady Bird was great though...you should check it out.
