      Right, one category that's at odds with all the other categories. If it took the place of something else, this would be worse.

      Replying to @louisvirtel @chrisgeidner

      I don’t think it’s at odds. It’s a recognition that the taste of the general public is different than the taste of the Academy. It’s not simply going to go to whomever makes the most money. It’s a recognition that Rogue One and Deadpool have merit but don’t fit best picture.

      Plenty of incredibly popular films have won Best Picture.

      It’s happened exactly twice in the last thirty years. That’s not “plenty.”pic.twitter.com/F3CU0fM8T1

      Wait, "incredibly popular" is not "the top grossing film," is it? (Since you also were arguing it's "not simply going to go to whomever makes the most money.")

      no. “Achievement in popular film” reads to me as about more than just money. Like, I think you can make a strong case that Guardians and Frozen would win in their respective years.pic.twitter.com/T2hDnUC5Qd

      Well, then why did you only use top grossing to respond to Louis’s point?

      Replying to @chrisgeidner @louisvirtel

      Because Twitter only lets me put five images in a tweet. But I’d be willing to bet that the best picture winner is in the top 10 grossing movies less than 1/3rd of the time. Typically, there’s only one nominee in the top 10.

          *jumps in* Between 2000 and 2009, 3 movies were in the top ten, 6 were top 20. Idk what argument this suits but those are the facts. It gets weird after 2009. *jumps out*

          Which is right when review aggregation got big. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.
