Not all it's cracked up to be 2 years ago

Okay, there was an assumption when I put this on the list of things that “Best Picture Oscar” actually meant “good movie”. That’s not necessarily the case … often the case, but not necessarily. I’d rather be working on something else than sitting through something mind numbing.
