The voting on the the 2000's is not closed but Chicago has run away with it and voting has come to a halt.

I'm still deciding...there are plenty of years where i thought the better movie lost out...including the year Gump won. All opinions are acceptable EXCEPT Unforgiven did not deserve the oscar...not even the all powerful A Few Good Men and Scent Of A Woman was on par.

Driving Miss Daisy(1990) -- Born on the Fourth was awesome. I thought Tom Cruise was great in that movie. Probably his best performance.

Dances With Wolves(1991) -- I'll stick with Dances. Just a great movie all the way around.

The Silence Of The Lambs(1992) -- I'll stick with Silence. Probably just for Anthony Hopkins.

Unforgiven(1993) -- This was a very tough year. Howard's End was really good too in addition to A Few Good Men and Scent. Never seen Crying Game.

Schindlers List(1994) -- In the Name of the Father was really good, but come on. Schindler's List was maybe the greatest ever.

Forrest Gump(1995) -- I have to go Shawshank by a decent margin to boot. One of the greatest ever. I loved Gump though.

Braveheart(1996) -- Didn't see half of the comp. Have to think this was an easy one.

The English Patient(1997) -- This is actually a tough call. I wasn't crazy about this movie, but I'm not crazy about the competition either. Liked Fargo, but not sure if it's Oscar worthy.

Titanic(1998) -- I've never seen it because it doesn't intrigue me in the least and LA Confidential is an all time fave, but I can't deny James Cameron's success.

Shakesphere In Love(1999) -- I would have taken The Thin Red Line, and then Saving Private Ryan. Titanic was great and it's a tough year, but I've never seen a film like the Thin Red Line. James Caviezel was a force in that movie.

I thought Saving Private Ryan was a far better film than Shakespeare.

I really like Shakespeare, but agreed. I'd take Ryan and Thin Red Line by a mile.

Fiennes in Shakespeare is a brilliant actor and it was a fun script. Not Oscar worthy, especially with Private Ryan and Thin Red Line on the table.

Costner was GREAT in Dances. Although I always laugh at movies where a white guy joins a less advanced culture and masters it in a matter of months and becomes its leader.

Um, Costner is part Indian. He's also campaigned for Obama. He ain't a Republican.

Wow there is alot of bad decisions from the academy in that decade.

Miss Daisy over Born On The Fourth of July
Dances Of Wolves over Goodfellas
Forrest Gump over Pulp Fiction and Shawshank Redemption
Titanic over LA Confidential
Shakesphere In Love over Saving Private Ryan

You could pick anyone of them.
