Happy Face 29 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Showgirls certainly won my onanism oscar as a young teenager. Unfortunately the academy didn't get as much out of it. Godfather is 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Citizen Kane Never won the Oscar. Hearst (who it was a bit of a character assassination of) used the full might of his media empire to bury it at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Apocalypse Now - No Oscar Battleship Potemkin - No Oscar...nor a place in the IMDB top 250 Gladiator - Not good enough for Sight and Sound Star Wars - Although Sight and Sound surprisingly have it in their high brow list, it never won the oscar. Some Like It Hot - Again, No Oscar The Tramp - You mean Chaplin? That one wasn't considered a great. But either way, No Chaplin amongst the 7.

Happy Face 29 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Metropolis - Out before the Oscars started. Schindlers List - Too sappy for Sight & Sound, came in at number 546 for them The Artist - Only got to number 894 in Sight and sound top 1000 On The Waterfront - Sight and sound films with 1 vote were all joint 894th. This is one of them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
