15 Movies That Never Should’ve Won the ‘Best Picture’ Oscar

It’s Oscar weekend and that means it’s time to whine about what was snubbed (not much love for Llewyn Davis, eh?) or what was undeserving of a nomination (Philomena for Best Picture? What?). Let’s face it: Year after year, we watch these awards ceremonies, even though everyone has a strong opinion about this, that, and the other snub.

Truth is Academy voters do tend to make bizarre decisions, leading to these 15 movies, for example, that clearly did not deserve to take home the big prize in their respective years. Feel free to agree or disagree and leave your thoughts in the comments section, where I will promptly disregard them.
