I really believe you need to re-think your stance of Oscars winners. Yes, there have been some trashy movies to win Oscars, but I think the Academy gets it right more often then they do not. Of the last 20 Best Picture winners, can you name me more than 5 that you would deem "bad" movies?? Maybe you didn't think they were the best of the year and that's fine, but that in no way means they were bad movies.
Here's the last 20 Best Picture Winners
Dances with Wolves
Silence of the Lambs
Unforgiven
Schindler's List
Forrest Gump
Braveheart
English Patient
Titanic
Shakesspeare in Love
American Beauty
Gladiator
Beautiful Mind
Chicago
Return of the King
Million Dollar Baby
Crash
The Departed
No Country for Old Men
Slumdog millionaire
