/thread12 Years a Slave works because Steve McQueen is fucking talented and made that shit into art, but unfortunately the cheap oscar campaign diminished it
2011
Lord of the rings, because it wasn't a bait.
And Because it won 11. (+5 +3)
Because it was the best trilogy ever.
Because it was out of the comfort zone of the academy.
Because I cried.
Are the oscars really important? I am not from usa so is it really credible?

Correcto
Also the movie is devoid of traits that you usually see in an oscar-bait flick
Unforgiven in 1992.
Also holy fuck did you know that A Beautiful Mind won Best Picture? That year must have been FUCKED for movies.

If u see the other nominees other than The Fellowship of the ring, it was pretty much the only acceptable choice.
Ron howard winning over four maestros though....
