    Very true... and then there are some that have not stood the test of time, not nearly as well. Some genuine head scratchers, what people were thinking/tastes at the time, or how on earth they won over others that were snubbed/overlooked, etc.

    All part of the fun, lol.

    My choices sent over Taz.

    Can we get a ban for anyone that votes for Annie Hall?

    4 sets of Rankings in. Keep them coming, everyone. :50:

    @HoopSprings I'll take Annie Hall over more than a few on the list - although AH is fine for what it is, it is a bit of an outlier - not that many romcoms ever end up winning, off the top of my head can think of only Marty and Shakespeare in Love... Gigi is the deal breaker for me though. There is simply no justification for that winning anything - ever.

    To be honest, it's not that Annie Hall is a bad film, it's that it won the Oscar the year Star Wars was up for it.

    There are few films that should have been a stick-on for Best Film but Star Wars is one of them. Nothing like it had come before and the way it captured people's imagination was incredible. Not to mention one of the biggest cliche-busters in film.

    Which is fair enough & why these things are often disputed, or some that have stood the test of time far better or really grow with appreciation that may not have been when first released in some cases or some that were overly lauded at the time but not aged well, the sometimes odd choice to reward obscre or snobbery about a movie like SW or there was some sketchy goings on in the background - such as Harvey Weinstein with Shakespeare in Love (and others) for example.

    There's a lot of these that I haven't watched. But I promise not to nominate any of the posh ones I've never seen just to look cool.

    Just to say, will be extending the deadline for this, as I have some RL commitments over the next couple of days. Which is just as well as have just the 5 sets of rankings in so far, and thanks to those who have already submitted. I haven't replied to those as yet, but will do so shortly, as won't get much of a chance to over the next couple of days.

    So deadline for rankings extended until Tuesday @ 8pm

    All going well, will still try to have the Rankdown Reveal commence later that same evening, but will see how it goes.

    Will tag folk later this evening also.

    Might be easier to look through the alphabetical list than all the posters, that may not be immediately clear and are in chronological and divided by which Best Picture Award they won.

    Alphabet list: https://www.talkceltic.net/forums/threads/award-winners-movie-rankdown.155262/#post-7365430

    Also as mentioned the deadline has been extended for people to submit their ranking submissions.

    Ranking deadline: Tuesday 7 Feb @ 8pm
