Re: 20 Years: Top 5 and Worst 5 Best Picture Winners And you're calling The Hurt Locker one of the five worst winners without even seeing it? You Avatar freaks are too much.

Re: 20 Years: Top 5 and Worst 5 Best Picture Winners 2007 is excellent in that it has two of the most critically acclaimed films of the decade in the same year, and academy managed to not screw up and nominate both. Juno is controversial, but personally I like it a lot and feel it's deserving of a spot. Only Michael Clayton doesn't belong in the field.

Re: 20 Years: Top 5 and Worst 5 Best Picture Winners xiayun wrote: Only Michael Clayton doesn't belong in the field. I agree. I know trix doesn't and all, but it was by far the weakest nominee that year. However, Tilda Swinton winning was well-deserved. And honestly, all the THL bashing from Avatar fans gives me an aversion against that movie even though I really liked it. Damn, it's LOTR loonies all over, another series of films that I love but that has insanely annoying fans at times. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

Re: 20 Years: Top 5 and Worst 5 Best Picture Winners Michael Clayon is much much much better than both Atonement and Juno.

Re: 20 Years: Top 5 and Worst 5 Best Picture Winners You're right; that should be Clayton instead.
