Question about the movie "Gladiator" and the Oscar award it won? I found out that Gladiator won the "best picture" in 2000 Academy award, but it has received many B's as well as A's from critics according to Yahoo movies, and it also has only 77% on rottentomatoes.com, which isn't that high.

  • OK, so what's the question???
  • I guess the question is why did gladiator win best picture. The better question is why a beautiful mind won best picture the next year.
  • The nomines were for 2001:
    Chocolat
    Erin Brokovich
    Gladiator
    Traffic
    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

    I liked Gladiator and Crouching Tiger. Either one could of won.

    Given the weak competition in 2002 I think they finally gave Opey an Oscar. Don't get me started on Ron Howard. His movies make Mayberry look like Shakespeare.
  • 2 great movies that lost: LA Confidential and The Insider
  • LA Confidential was a great movie. Loved it.
  • I keep thinking this is a post about Beave's doggy.

    i have no idea what the poster is talking about...so maybe it is about Oskie after all
  • fwiw, I worked on an Oscar-winning film, and on three others that were nominated. Was credited, too!
