I stopped holding the Oscars in any esteem in the 90s, starting with the victory of Forrest Gump, but I can’t deny that they’ve been on a roll for the last few years – Oppenheimer, Anora and One Battle after Another are all awesome, and would all be in my top ten (maybe even five) of their respective years. Sinners was pretty good, but I don’t think it would even be in my top thirty of 2025.
