    Not hard at all. I can already tell you I liked Everything Everywhere All at Once (this year’s BP winner) way more than Dances with Wolves.

    1991 is a uniquely weak year for the Academy though. You might have had a stronger argument with 1994 or 1995, but I can still think of plenty of movies released in the last decade that I would rank up there with Schindler’s List or Pulp Fiction.

      Bickering about dumb movie stuff really makes me feel like the internet is healing after reddit. 🌞 It’s good to be back.
