[MOPO] Fwd: [MOPO] Best Picture Oscars and others

I've been thinking that the diversity of opinions on movies like this is pretty cool. It's easy to say that some will like it and some hate it. The conversation led me to think of this: what movies would we say are universally loathed or loved, without equivocation. Then, there's some that

Phil, Nah. I think the reason some people (like me) are angry about it is because every other contender that year was far more deserving of best picture and ENGLISH PATIENT was so very boring that it getting the award was even more of an affront than usual. No way was this a better film than

What you are seeing is that they brightened the image artificially, making the card look far more white than it actually is in real life. That had the unintended side effect of also brightening the tear, making it far more noticeable than it is in real life. Two different cameras actually view

There is a definitely a quality of detail in Heritage's image that is lacking in the Emovieposter image. Just look at the detail in Muni's hair to see what I am talking about. And while it isn't possible to do so over the internet, I prefer to use as bright a light as possible when inspecting
