Based on this
Beverly Hills Cop should have won the best picture in 1985.
The nominees were
Amadeus
The killing fields
A passage to India
Places in the heart
A Soliders story
Which picture left a greater impression. Though the killing fields is quite good.
Regardless of what wins best picture next year at the Oscars the movie that will resonate and leave the audience with a lasting impression is Black Panther. This past year it was probably Wonder Women or maybe Coco. (Which if it had been live action and had a teen go on the same journey would have won best picture but it was discounted for bein a kids movie) Movies that capture the Zietgeist of the moment in time they are released. These movies were all about people seeing themselves in the center of culture for the first time and will be remembered as such.
I think the best picture Category is really the best picture that fits the Oscar format. In 5 years what movies will you remember from 2017. For me it's probably Coco or Get Out.

You think Black panther will leave a lasting impression?
I don’t think it will be talked about much after Infinity Wars comes out in 2 months.
