If Best Picture had never been extended to 10 nominees, what do you think would be the nominees since 2009 in that timeline?
My thoughts on a few recent years:
2024 - Anora/Conclave/The Brutalist/Emilia Pérez/A Complete Unknown
2023 - Oppenheimer/Poor Things/Anatomy of a Fall/Barbie/Killers of the Flower Moon
2022 - Everything Everywhere All at Once/Tár/All Quiet on the Western Front/The Banshees of Inisherin/The Fabelmans
2021 - CODA/The Power of the Dog/Dune/West Side Story/King Richard
I can't really comment much after that because after then I'm not really familiar with most of the films, but I'd like to hear your thoughts.
