The problem isn't so much that the Oscars reward artistic and commercially marginal films. The problem is it rewards a particular type of artistic and commercially marginal film. Best film nominees are drawn from the Venn diagram overlap of artistic merit and earnest social message. Look at European film festivals to see awards where the latter isn't a factor.
