Agree or disagree with Ent. Weekly?

In their post Oscars issue they list Best Pictures from years past that shouldn't have won and those that should have. I take issue with a couple of them and wondered what you think...(I'll start with 1980 because not many people remember movies from the 50s and 60s, including me)...

1980

Winner: Ordinary People

EW's winner: Raging Bull

Agree or disagree: I agree

1981

Winner: Chariots of Fire

EW's winner: Reds

Agree or disagree: Both. Raiders of the Lost Ark should have won

1990

Winner: Dances With Wolves

EW's winner: GoodFellas

Agree or disagree: Disagree. DwW was one of my all time faves

1994

Winner: Forrest Gump

EW's winner: Pulp Fiction

Agree or disagree: Disagree. See Dances with Wolves above

1996

Winner: The English Patient

EW's winner: Fargo

Agree or disagree: Both. Neither of those movies should have won

1999

Winner: American Beauty

EW's winner: Being John Malkovich

Agree or disagree: I'll take Sixth Sense

2005

Winner: Crash

EW's winner: Brokeback Mountain

Agree or disagree: Saw both. Neither was great.

The Acadamy alway goes for the safe choice. Goodfellas is a classic. It makes me sad that Kevin Costner won Best Director over Scorsese that year. Pulp Fiction was a game changer in movie making. Nobody had ever seen a story told like that before. American Beauty wasn't great. But it was better than the others. Hated Crash, saw it once and don't have a desire to see it again. Saw Brokeback a few times and thought it told a great story. (All jokes aside). 1996 just sucked. Jerry Maguire was nominated for Best Picture for God sake.

i love once upon a time in the west (best first 15 minutes of any film EVER) but I think Midnight Cowboy is probably a better film.

It has...you know... acting.

You want bad acting? How bout the dude who played Johnny Ringo in Tombstone? Or the guy who played Kyle in The Terminator? Or the guy who played the crazy guy in The Abyss?

LA Confidential is so underrated. It actually had a good plot as opposed to a film where we already know the ending.

Crouching Tiger is not better than Gladiator.

If you’re looking for a supplement that may help curb your appetite, improve energy, and support gradual weight loss, Fitspresso could be worth trying. However, as with all weight loss products, results vary, and it may take some time to see noticeable changes. “Unfortunately, Fitspresso didn’t live up to my expectations. I took it daily for over a month and didn’t notice any significant changes in my weight or energy levels. I didn’t experience any major side effects, but I also didn’t feel like it helped me lose weight or curb my appetite. I tried pairing it with my usual fitness routine and diet, but the results just weren’t there.

    • I couldn't stay up past regulation.   Did the ref's factor in UGA's victory?   No penalties against GT until the 4th quarter and then a very suspect PI call (that replay couldn't even point out) to give UGA 6 attempts at a touchdown from inside the 10 followed by 3 more penalties against GT on the following drives.
