My favorite acceptance speech was Julia Roberts' for Erin Brockovich, when she told the conductor ""Sir, you're doing a great job, but you're so quick with that stick. So why don't you sit, 'cause I may never be here again." And when the music finally did come up later in her speech she kept thanking everyone on her list, time limits be damned.

8/10 didn't know sinners and chose Austria Hungary although Oscar didn't seem like the right name for them.

You got 8 of 10 correct.

Never heard of King Oscar and didn't know the film with the record nominations.

Bread without butter is like pancake without jam

8/10. Didn't know what Leo won an oscar for or the o ne with the record for oscar noms. Honestly, surprised I did this well in an oscar themed quiz.

My best friend would have gotten the first question wrong because she always inssists oscars and academy awards are two different things. Wish she took this test.

Sinners was a garbage movie lmao anything will win nowadays

2/10

good day

Probably one of the few in these comments that saw all 10 best picture nominees, Sinners is a joke. There are a few technically good things about it and it should win those technical categories, but it was a conceptual mess and all of Coogler's work is extremely preachy - no nuance. MBJ is good, but I wasn't as captured by his performance in this as many were, probably because the story assumed I would care about the characters instead of attempting to make me.

Edit: If I'm gonna leave this comment I'll leave my final order: 1. OBAA 2. Marty Supreme 3. The Secret Agent 4. Bugonia 5. Sentimental Value 6. F1 (expected this to be last, pleasantly surprised) 7. Hamnet 8. Sinners 9. Frankenstein 10. Train Dreams.

Questions about historical characters etc related to Oscar/Oskar - no problem. Questions about random American films and their self congratulatory awards - no chance!

Spent a bit of thinking time in Q1 looking for the words “for Merit”. #toonerdy #tooslow
