Well put "2 movies a week" ...even 3 per week doesn't seem like a lot to ask for the privilege to vote

On average, how many films (in your estimate ) are FYC each year?

Awesome letter...hope people read it Bleachigo Feb 26, 11:51

The foreign language committee has a stronger track record of diversity then the larger academy {nm} Moviesnob Feb 26, 13:49

"As a member of the Academy, you have a singular obligation to watch every film in the categories for which you vote."(...) RamsFan2004 Feb 26, 11:47

honestly, i think they should watch 100 movies a year to be eligible to vote. They are the arbiters of merit in this film, they need Moviesnob Feb 26, 11:59

These guys aren't mainlining movies because they're movie buffs... the academy members just enjoy being in the club. {nm} RamsFan2004 Feb 26, 12:24

some, but most think they are movie buffs. they just are lazy {nm} Moviesnob Feb 26, 12:52

How many would FYC films are there each year...just a rough guess? {nm} Bleachigo Feb 26, 12:58

Correction : how many FYC films are there each year? {nm} Bleachigo Feb 26, 12:59

In a sea of stuff that, though interesting and relevant, has gotten tiresome, here is a question that I am interested in. {nm} VicMackeyYTD Feb 26, 13:22

well not every film gets an oscar campaign, but about 300 each year are submitted Moviesnob Feb 26, 13:32

305 films were eligible for Oscar this year. {nm} Antibody Feb 26, 13:32

Are academy members able to vote in all categories..for instance can actors vote on technical categories? And vise versa? {nm} Bleachigo Feb 26, 15:39

They just like having their say, not necessarily finding out what the 'best picture' actually is {nm} RamsFan2004 Feb 26, 12:25

57 movies were nominated this years, x 2 is a good approximation. {nm} Antibody Feb 26, 13:31
