I think they will become mostly forgotten out side of there genres and hard core cinephile (or in the case of La la land will likely counutie to become controversial film everyone hates on). Look these movies are still new, and it's hard too know how much staying power they will have. I can't picture that many cinephiles in 20 yaers discorving The Lobster or Manchester by the Sea, nor do I see them being in the national film registry. (Hell I haven't even thought of Manchester by the sea and The Lobster since 2017) I may be wrong, But every year has great movies, but most great movies don't become classics.

    you hit the nail on the head - if you weren't there when Pulp Fiction came out then you have no idea at all. What that movie did - you came away energised and thrilled and entertained. But yes, America loves an underdog, a simpleton who rises above, despite the odds. US audiences didn't have to think too hard while watching Gump, but they did for Pulp Fiction so no surprises come Oscar night. Original Screenplay is the award given to the film which should, but will not, win Best Picture. It is and always has been, the consolation prize.

      Citizen Kane was never going to win, it was a incredibly controversial film at the time of it's release, and is famously the only film in history to get booed, when it announced it had won an Oscar. and really didn't get respect until it was impronarted to France after WW2. Same for Maltese Falcon, Noir believe it or not was considered Low brow entreatment at the time, and I believe Maltese Falcon was kind of like a "Mad Max furry road" or "Black Panter" were it was genre the acmdey dosen't care much for, that was so exceptionally good that they had to nominate it. Also helped their were 10 nominees that year

      @@bryanismyname7583 It's always a matter of perspective. Most people have very little knowledge when it comes to cinema. There are years with many good popular mainstream movies (such as 1994), but that doesn't automatically make them superior to years with fewer good mainstream movies. Each and every year there are great movies being made all around the world. In fact the vast majority of great movies tends to get overlooked. Especially when you look at anything beyond Hollywood. When people complain about a certain year's cinematic output they simply have to look more closely for the good stuff.

      @@cepho8349 : I agree up to a point. Yes, it is true that good films are made all over the world and many people unfairly ignore a lot of them, but at the same time it is understandable that the vast majority of audiences are going to watch the most accessible movies.
      Many people, even intelligent ones, don't watch subtitled films. Being hearing-impaired, I have been used to watching with subtitles from an early age whenever possible (though theater speakers are usually loud enough that I don't need to), but some people find it too distracting. And even if they didn't need subtitles, some of those films would probably still be overlooked just because they have different cultural nuances. It's sad, because they miss out on some great cinema, but at the same time it is understandable that people want to watch movies they identify with and that they don't necessarily have to do a lot of heavy lifting.
      They see it as a chore to watch international films or even, in some cases, local independent films due to heavy subject matter or other reasons. But by the same token, just because it's not from Hollywood doesn't make it good either. One thing that happens is that even Americans or Western World citizens that do watch those films only receive access to a small percentage of the films made around the world so we aren't necessarily seeing the bad ones as often because it's harder to access.
      All of this is to say that there can be a consensus that a particular year is more impressive than another based on the output, but there's no concrete statement that you have to agree. I think 1994 was a very good year for commercial fare, but other years may be just as good or better. I think 1995 is a great year (in fact the letter half of the '90s was a terrific time to be young and watching movies... I was still in high school in 1994 and 1995)!

    Interesting that people continue to suggest that Travolta isn't really the lead in Pulp Fiction. Worth a rewatch because it's pretty obvious that he is. He is present in the diner sequence, the Vincent-Mia sequence, and the Mr Wolf sequence. He's the only character in the film that has that level of presence. Sam Jackson is in the opener but then doesn't appear again until the Wolf sequence. Between the opening and the Wolf sequence, Vincent (Travolta) has this whole "act" with Uma Thurman. There is one lead performance in Pulp Fiction, and one only. And it's clearly Travolta. We can screen count it too, but on narrative alone - it's clear cut.
    Also, minor points, if you're calling yourself Oscar "Expert" to can't say John Toll won his second Oscar this year - he won his first and the second came the next year for "Braveheart". Neverthleess, I love your commentary and how engaged and excited you are about films and how they're awarded. Fantastic stuff.

    I honestly feel pretty similarly about Forrest Gump and Pulp Fiction. What works about them is absolutely stellar, and certain scenes and characters definitely live up to the hype. However, there’s also parts of both movies I don’t love, Forrest Gump can get pretty unfocused and the voice Hanks puts on took a while for me to get used to. With Pulp Fiction, I adore John Travolta, Uma Thurman and Samuel L. Jackson’s characters, but when they aren’t on screen I feel the movie falls a little flat. However, The Shawshank Redemption is what I’d consider a perfect movie. Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins both give incredible performances, the cinematography is just insane, and the ending is one of the most satisfying in film history. It’d easily be my pick for the Oscar this year.

      While I would not nominate it for best picture, "Forrest Gump" is very entertaining. It's a fable, not really a straight-forward drama, so you have to approach it with a certain sense of humor. I think the cast was wonderful, and the writing was witty. And the technical merits, like the VF/X and music, were all excellent. But I would agree there were better films that year. It was nice to see Robert Zemeckis win, as Expert mentioned in the video, who directed "Back to the Future" (1985) and "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" (1988).
