I would agree with about 10 years. There have

been some excellent winners in the last 15 years, including Spotlight, 12 Years a Slave, Argo, Kings Speech, Moonlight.

I can pretty much bank on no movie winning best picture as being worth the time.

You believe that has always been the case or just recently?

Gotcha. Makes sense from that point of view.

The field was pretty weak this year if we’re being honest.

All Quiet should have won

That’s unfortunate, it’s in my personal Top 5 movies of all time

It was terrible. I can’t believe Jamie Lee Curtis won an Oscar for that.

Jamie Lee Curtis had a solid performance.

I didn’t find it unique at all, but I’ve read a lot of Douglas Adams so…

You should check out Eraserhead

If you thought that was weird, check out the other movie by the same directors, "Swiss Army Man".

It is a deeply religious movie for the current college educated white segment

Some people I know who raved about the movie are exactly as you described

Exact people Oscars are for

I thought it was really interesting and in many ways excellent.

Haven’t a lot of weird ones one lately?

Weird in some ways, yes, but this one felt more sci-fi-ish than previous winners
