What is the last one?
OrionthecatAttack
And each movie was amazing - RoTK won 11. The first two won 4 and 2 respectively. They should have won more tbh.
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
Love how Twilight starts the list like it deserved any nominations at all, let alone an Academy Award.
BlindPiranha
Seriously. I was like, "Uhhh, why is this even here?".
Amesang
mildpanda
why would you even include Twilight in this list?
BlindPiranha
My thoughts exactly.

What was the last one
AbrahamWithAWiffleballBat
Harry Potter won a lot of awards for special effects though didn’t it?
zerovanity59
No, it did not. The franchise finally won for Best Costume Design with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
AbrahamWithAWiffleballBat
But. . . Those effects were fucking amazing
poorwhitetrash
Oscars are just circle jerks for Hollywood. It’s pay to play anyway.
Lemmysir
Oscars really shouldnt be considered as a "rating" system... Not that I dont agree that the movies were great, just saying
PmMeGifsForSauce
They aren't?
FaultyStarsNoConstellations
No, cause an Oscar can be for many things - like the example with suicide squad - Amazing makeup and styling, but shit movie. Won Oscar
CheeseBelongsInTheKitten
Well suicide squad won an oscar, so it must be good!
RacecarRoadcar
For make up.
CheeseBelongsInTheKitten
Nice to see you got the sarcasm!
giveittomestraightlikeapearcidermadefrom100percentpears
I was about to say the same thing.. Last time i checked films were being made in other languages than just English. One of the many things >
giveittomestraightlikeapearcidermadefrom100percentpears
I hate about The Academy Awards... And yet, i will still place a bet on them. That said, i put my money on after only watching the trailer.
pronoun
And how many English films won awards at Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Brazilian film award ceremonies? Probably not that many....
alpacasaurusrex
I wouldn’t touch that argument with a kid gloves and a 10 foot pole.
utmkiv
The Room didn’t win any either and that’s one of the greatest movies ever made.

Why are the hobbitses separate from LOTR but star wars gets lumped all together?
EatTacos
Except those nasty hobbitses came first, having been published in 1937.
Kvothefefe
6 movies, 18 Oscars. Better?
GenjiShimadaOfTheShimadaClan
Because 8 SW movies fall under the SW moniker Rogue One isn't counted and the Hobbit and LOTR trilogies are more contained within themselves
GenjiShimadaOfTheShimadaClan
Oorrrr it could be to warp the information presented.
waiwode
(Which is funny, because it isn't like 6 movies & 18 Oscars is suddenly so unimpressive).
Boobs4Wade
huanthewolfhound
Harry Potter never got best makeup or costumes?
snargfargle
I feel like it has something to do with non-Americans not being part of the academy (?)
zerovanity59
Fantastic Beasts won for Costume Design, so nine films one Oscar.
BrokeMyFunnyBone
They don't deserve best costumes. They wore muggle clothing all the goddamn time.
ImABigManSpongebobABigBigMan
Why wouldn't the last picture be of them in costume. This meme is stupid

So the moral of the story and trilogy with Andy Serkis will get you a Oscar point noted.

Remember kids, Suicide Squad is an Oscar-Winning film.
LurkerBee
Ew.

I like that movie.
KingMammajamma
Same
TheBentPianist
The first movie where I was close to walking out. Only stayed because my pals were there. Turned out they wanted to bail too.
PureUnadulteratedBait
I took my cousin (around 8 years old at the time) to see The Lorax. After about 10 minutes we both turned, looked at each other and bailed.
dragonfliesfantasize
For make up though
TheHappyHermit
Remember kids, Suicide Squad is an Oscar-Winning film.
thecolonels
And honestly the make ip was pretty sweet. The artists of that department really did well.
obviouscoconut
I don’t have one for sitting on my ass so who am I to judge.

Star Trek: Beyond should have won
RednapxpandeR
Beat me to it
TheDrunkChicken
I think the point though is that Oscar winning movie =/= good movie.
worgenboy
Yeah, they earned that one. No sarcasm
Iankill
Yeah but it was probably because of how margot robbie looked in the Harley Quinn costume
worgenboy
Meh,. Always figured it was for pyro boy and killer croc
Vercci
Was for my boy Robert Downey Jr as Deadshot

PureUnadulteratedBait
Still highlights how little an Oscar actually speaks to the quality of a film/its aspects. Look at the Suicide Squad makeup, then look at
PureUnadulteratedBait
the Star Trek makeup. Both movies came out the same year, one of them has Oscar-worthy makeup effects. Hint: it doesn't involve a crocodile
InvolentaryYoga
They were probably just paid off to not make a sequel.
thesmelge
There's a sequel still planned.
EwokDude
So is The Muppets.
Mikeiller
Forget Suicide Squad. How the Grinch Stole Christmas is an Oscar winning movie. The Jim Carrey Grinch.
QueenCousland
That movie's amazing, though.
PureUnadulteratedBait
Cinematic masterpiece.
kamakaziK
A very deserving film.
SIRTOXIC13
I nearly jumped out of my seat pumping my fist. I loved that movie!
alpacasaurusrex
Same. I enjoyed it a lot. It was better than most DC flicks.
SIRTOXIC13
Look at us being downvoted for liking a movie others didn't like.
alpacasaurusrex
I’m not gonna comment on that. Haha.
adamtzzz
it's the worst one! it barely qualifies as a finished movie!
alpacasaurusrex
Eh, to each their own. I enjoyed it for the actors I went to see. CinemaWins on YT won me over to it. My big bitch about the movie was the
alpacasaurusrex
nonsensical bad guy. “They don’t worship me, they worship tech so I’m gonna kill them all with a big tech thing so they will worship me.”
ThatGirlWithTheStuff
Wait, there was more than one sparklefart vampire movie? When did this happen and why do I still not care?
JackSkellington59
I continue to try and forget the hobbit trilogy was a thing, and just remember the book.
SerDire
Imagine how it would’ve been if Guillermo Del Toro had directed. He left because they were taking too long to move the production along
Katateochi
As far as I'm concerned there is only the book (with the nice maps) & the 4 cassette tape audio version that I listened to nonstop as a kid
watisdisidonteven
But i really liked the hobbit trilogy..
Cattackson
You're allowed to like it! :D don't listen to them
alanivar75
-1 Tolkien hated the Hobbit book. The movies are closer to his desired rewrite that he never got...cause, ya know, death
VanDerJoik
That utter nonsense.
Redicarus
He did make a rewrite after LOTR books came out correcting a couple things for continuity. He loved the Hobbit. Listen to the Tolkien Prof

The director commentary on the blue ray is pretty much one long apology.

The old animated movie was a good rendition of the book.

DwightKSchrute69
Pokedthebear
That movie scared me af as a child + and I like how Jackson put the exact same settings into his movies
tysonwho
Didn't that movie stop halfway through the book?
haaska
That was the Lord of the rings.
GrossIncandescence
Agreed, if you were able to overlook the terrible, creepy-as-hell animation.
MyFrontPorchInMississippi
It was good animation
GrossIncandescence
Point taken, I rescind the terrible part and hold fast to the creepy-as-hell part.
MyFrontPorchInMississippi
It was creepy lol

shimmernshine
There's not enough cocaine in New Zealand to get Ian McKellan to agree to that.

I was thinking they split RotK into 2 but I misremembered. Think I got it confused with Harry Potter. Sacrilege, I know.
GreenSpaceman
Hahaha
sahdad
If they had left it as 2 movies it would have been great. Once they stretched it to 3 things got out of hand.
caedescorvidus
Movie 1 "There" movie 2 "Back Again"
sahdad
If only.
Schmuck4hire
Definitely. In a strange way I think it worked out okay in the first one. I don't get bored watching that movie. The problems becomes 1/
Schmuck4hire
clear in the 2nd one though, where we go from "just hurry up and get to the dragon!!" to "are we finished with this goddamn dragon yet!?" /2

aboxacaraflatafan
I mean... yeah, kinda.
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
I heard someone did a fan edit where they merged all 3 films into one movie and cut out all the unnecessary shit and it's supposedly amazing
UnrelatedHistoryLesson
It's still bad in my opinion. It's just... less bad. I still had a really hard time getting through that personally.
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
aw, that's a shame
caedescorvidus
It is called the Tolkien edit and it is rather well done
mcyr1190

GregorCorgane
Any clue where to find it?
sammygold
Another called the Bilbo edition follows the book pretty closely. I read the book to my kids chapter by chapter alongside the movie.

alpacasaurusrex
Some of it was spectacular. Not the prosthetics. Those were absolute shit.
TheLastSpaceman
Just pretend it's a 6hr movie
Gixxerguy
I LOVE lotr. I would literally finish the book and start it again and did that for 3 years. I think the hobbit is a shit book though. 1/2
biscuitsngravybelly
I wouldnt call it shit. Its definitely more of a children's book,which contrasts lotr pretty badly when read in sequence
Gixxerguy
You can tell it was written over a shorter period and earlier in Tolkien’s writing career 2/2
JackSkellington59
I believe It was meant to be written as a childrens book though, and LotR as an adults book, so it is meant to be more simple.
ClydeTheBelovedBandit
Look up the supercut. Some guy made the 9h movies in to a 5 hour one thats actually decent ive heard. Same with starwars.
Schmuck4hire
I've seen fan edits of the movies, trimming it down to book-loyal material, and I think it's a hella good time.
[deleted]
[deleted]
Schmuck4hire
It was tough to keep it away from copyright infringement. Look up the "Tolkien Edit" and you might be able to track it down.
Biglebowski748
Same. And unpopular opinion, I do the same with the LoTR movies. They were done well and I realize that. Just can't get into them.
Imalwaysready
That's fair, but at least they were well done. The Hobbit was a bloated, CGI-laden pile of crap. First two anyway. I never bothered with #3.
Biglebowski748
I only watched the first "Hobbit" movie. Travesty.
Imalwaysready
I only went to see the 2nd one because a friend wanted to go and wanted company and bought my ticket.
TheCosmicCracker
Yeah I really liked parts of the first and second, and the casting/acting was great, but overall they were kinda meh sadly
RisingPhoenix92
If you get a chance watch the book edit some fan made. Cuts out anything not in the book and it becomes way better
DorkNight907
Google the Tolkien Edit. Thank me with nudes.

Return of The King tied the record for most Oscars in a year with 11. Tied with Titanic and Ben Hur. Nominated for 11, won 11
schizznatt
Titanic is also tied for the most nominations (14) with All About Eve and La La Land. Tangentially relevant comment...
tehniceguy
RotK also has the largest sweep (movie to have won all its categories nominated for.)
Bouhgf
"HOBBIT"
AustriaNotAustralia
the hobbit got an oscar? for what? for trying to remake the magic of lotr by weaving in tons of useless shyte?

I think RotK won so many because the academy was honoring the entire series rather than just the last entry.

Sean astin shouldve gotten one.

He gives an incredible performance in ROTK. Made me cry.

Titanic shouldn't have won any
LoTRFanatic42
Return of the King is also the only fantasy movie to ever win the Oscar for Best Picture.
BahamutBBob
That's hilarious, considering the hack job PJ did on RotK is what makes me hate him and all of his movies.
Thejusner
What made you dislike rotk so much as a movie?
HoButter
You have a fitting username for this.
SerDire
The other 2 were nominated in more categories but didn’t win all of them. ROTK swept all its categories. 11 for 11.
MOTHERFUCKINGVIRGINMARY
Which is why I believe ROTK is the best movie ever made
asmallcat
Which is funny cause I think it's the worst of the three, but it was clearly winning for the trilogy, so I'm ok with it.
FernandoRumdebum
I think it's the best of the 3 and I hated all 3. I hate the genre and I hated those films in particular. But 3 was entertaining..ish
asianmilkspray
It's not the best (I would say Fellowship is the best), but damn was it satisfying to watch for the first time.
