    Steps for being nominated for Best Picture:
    1. Make a dramatic movie about real life events or fictional stories.
    2. Make a biblical epic with a very serious tone.
    3. Cast Meryll Streep
    4. Make a war movie
    5. Don't make a comedy, sci-fi, thriller, horror or any other genre films besides drama.
    Anything else?

      Horror: Get Out, The Sixth Sense, The Silence of the Lambs (this won best picture), The Exorcist, Fatal Atraction (This one is more suspense)
      Sci-Fi: The Shape of Water (Won best picture), Avatar, Star Wars, E.T., District 9, Arrival, The Martian, Mad Max
      Fantasy: Avatar, Lord of the Rings III (Won best picture).
      Comedy: Lady Bird, Moonstruck, Little Miss Sunshine, As Good as it Gets, Birdman (Won best picture) The Grand Budapest Hotel

      so basically only 4 winners, and out of the last 25 years or so (i'm assuming). So in other words, they only let drama/history films win with only a few exceptions like Lord of the Rings and some lucky winners (eg. The shape of water) so basically Nolan is never gonna win a best picture because almost all of his movies are sci-fi.

    Good video, but I would've liked the video to have touched on genre. There's been a lot of talk between "The Shape of Water" and "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" winning Best Picture. The Academy is notoriously allergic to sci-fi, and for that reason I think "Three Billboards" is going to win. (We'll see how this prediction holds up.) Few fantasy and sci-fi movies have ever gotten serious consideration at the Oscars. These include "The Lord of the Rings" (with "The Return of the King" obviously winning Best Picture), "The Wizard of Oz" (which lost to "Gone with the Wind"), "It's a Wonderful Life" (which lost to "The Best Years of Our Lives"), and "Star Wars: A New Hope" (which lost to "Annie Hall"). The Academy is also averse to comedy and thrillers. Thus, some of the best films ever made-including "Vertigo," "Rear Window," "Some Like It Hot," "2001: A Space Odyssey," "North by Northwest," and "Singin' in the Rain"-did not even receive nominations for Best Picture. It should be pretty clear that if you want to make a movie that's going to win Best Picture, there are certain genres you shouldn't touch.

    • @samimorcos

    Honestly, the Oscar movies are always the best movies that have come out that year. The nominees are always easily predicted because they stand out. Maybe the winner isn’t always who you want, but the nominees are always good. Except for this year’s, The Farewell deserved to be nominated.

  • @jonathancharron7360
    @jonathancharron7360 4 года назад +4

    They win best picture by having a panel of film experts with diverse opinions to carefully examine each film that year. It involves going through several statistics and questions like "How did this film improve the cinema experience? How did the actor transform themselves for the role? Did the audience feel satisfied after seeing it?" The process is long, but eventually they narrow it down to a few nominees, and careful examination and voting determines the winner..............HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..............JK they are chosen based on pretentious FYC campaigns.

      @airwaters 3 года назад

      Not gonna happen. Most people who watch movies in theaters aim for excitements, not for quality. That's why CBMs like MCU and other fantasy shows like Avatar, Star Wars and Harry Potter dominate the box office arena. Best movies creative-wise: directing, acting, screenwriting, etc are in the shadows of these box office hits. I am not saying the latter don't have quality (I am an MCU fan), but let's be real here, underrated firms with golden quality are lurking in the background and needed to be appreciated more.

    How the voting works per the Academy website:
    Nominations:
    “Regular awards are presented for outstanding individual or collective film achievements in a wide variety of categories. Most categories are nominated by the members of the corresponding branch-actors nominate actors, film editors nominate film editors, etc. However, certain categories such as International Feature Film and Animated Feature Film have special voting rules which can be viewed at our Rules & Eligibility page.
    All voting members are eligible to select the Best Picture nominees.”
    And everyone votes for the winners.
