The Academy Awards is a highly produced entertainment spectacle designed for self-promotion. I do NOT go to movie theaters since I get enough entertainment to suit me from N, Prime, and Max. I only saw Dune 2 which was excellent. When I was younger and went to theaters often, I rarely agreed with the Academe's best picture choice. So, whatever their criterion for best picture is up to them and I really don't care. It is like a dog show, which I also don't watch.
