Actually [In reply to] Can't Post
I think the order was, from Lincoln to Les Mis to ZD30 to Argo.

And no, it's not that I take the Oscars seriously--it's just that I've watched them every yr since I was little.
The Oscars ARE a serious thing though, in some quarters. If you read Oscar history you'll find that at times different people around the world take them more seriously than we seem to do. And as representing what America is aboit to the world...well, again, in some quarter they're a big deal.

I agree--this has been the best yr for films in quite some time. Though it seems to come in bunches--by some fluke, we have years full of great movies followed by "fallow" yrs like last yr, when nothing was good, much. Production should spread it around more!
