What do we think about what the Oscars thought was the best movie of the year? Here's every Best Picture winner (since 1990) ranked:
Ranking every Best Picture winner is a bit more apples and oranges than comparing the films in a certain genre, a single filmmaker’s oeuvre, or even a select time period. We’re coming up on 100 years since the first Oscars ceremony, which took place on May 16, 1929, which means it’s almost been a full century since people have been getting mad at what the Academy has deemed the best of the best.
Our eventual, foolish goal is to rank every single Best Picture winner since the Oscars first began. But to start things off, we’ll focus on the last few decades, giving you an idea of this century’s winners and those of the last century’s final decade. Here, you will find a cross-section of the Academy’s embarrassing tendencies, its consistent predilections and its few, surprising, deviations from the norm. Some of these movies are truly great.
follows Evelyn Wang , a jaded, middle-aged laundromat owner who may or may not be involved in some minor tax fraud. Her tedious, repetitive life is thrown into total pandemonium, however, when her husband, Waymond –or at least a version of him—alerts her to the existence of the multiverse on the elevator ride to an IRS meeting. He then explains that a powerful villain named Jobu Tupaki is in the process of constructing a universe-destroying force that only Evelyn has the ability to stop.
As he prepares to leave Middle-earth, Frodo finishes his handwritten narrative of the war, then turns to Sam and says “There’s room for a little more” in the book. It’s not a subtle message, and if you watch behind-the-scenes footage of the making of the film, you can see that it’s made even less subtle by Jackson’s decision to shoot Frodo’s dialogue in that scene at the very end of principal photography.
The point here, is that as Tolkien himself would say, “The Road goes ever on and on.” There are no endings, not really. There is only the moment we look away, call cut, sob in each other’s arms when we’re finally willing to let go. For all its great length, for all the jokes we make about its many conclusions,still doesn’t provide complete and utter closure. We don’t get neat endings for every character. We don’t get to see what awaits Frodo in the light of the West.
