I generally dislike them. With the exception of Schindler's List, I dislike every Best Picture winner of the 1990s. Liked a couple of the 2000s, and haven't seen any from the 2010s.

@GlassDog Have you seen "Gravity"?

4thdimensiondream · 61-69, M

Sorry for budding in. Did you think Gravity was Oscar material?

helenS · 36-40, F

@4thdimensiondream I think it was a decent movie, but a bit overrated, and the main actor was mediocre.

@helenS agree totally. It didn’t win Best Picture though right? Maybe special effects?

helenS · 36-40, F

@4thdimensiondream It won seven Oscars:

Best visual effects
Best sound editing
Best sound mixing
Best cinematography
Best film editing
Best original score
Best director

... and was nominated for three more:

Best picture
Best actress
Best production design

Best actress haha...

@helenS I haven't but I saw all the trailers and I do like sci-fi. I just never tend to watch films until they are five years old (which it probably is now).

@GlassDog "I do like sci-fi.
— Yes I know, for some reason, that's why I asked. It's a decent movie, well worth watching.

@helenS I think I'll see if I can get hold of it. Probably going to try and watch The Martian too because it was recommended. Thanks!
