Way, way out of touch. As far as those idiotic "criteria" to even be considered for best picture, here's some previous winners that I doubt would be considered today based on what was posted above.

Casablanca
From Here to Eternity
Gigi
Ben Hur
My Fair Lady
The Sound of Music
The Godfather
The Sting
Chariots of Fire
Amadeus
Silence of the Lambs
Forrest Gump
Braveheart
Titanic

Obviously, a collection of inferior movies due to a lack of meeting diversity standards.
