I haven’t watched in years….they gave Titanic a best picture award and it was a so -so movie. .

Ironically, that year had the highest Oscar ratings ever. A quick Google search would confirm it.

The last great best picture winner was “The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King”.

Now, now....“so-so” and “best” aren’t mutually exclusive. James Cameron is an ass. I’ve seen “Titanic” and “Avatar” once, each. If I like a movie, 10-15 viewings isn’t uncommon. Katherine Bigelow’s “Hurt Locker” (and “Zero Dark Thirty,” for that matter)is/are better than either of the Cameron films.

Personally, I won’t buy any Hollywood stuff unless it’s from a pawn shop/ flea market, or a new Tarantino release.
