Boring? I don't agree with the oscars, but it does seem that your implying that only certain types of films win. Which simply isn't true, war movies have won, comedies have won, romances have won, etc. That being said I find the oscars to be a joke (look no further then 1997 and 1998) where Titanic won the oscar, and then Shakespeare in Love not only won the oscar, but Paltrow won for best actress (I don't think Paltrow gave a poor performance, but it didn't go above and beyond and there where many more deserving actresses that year). (Yes, I think I was more looking for an excuse to show my dislike for the oscars then actually reply to your post.
