Oscar films nominated that deserved the win

The Academy is referred to as a mystical entity.
It's hated more than Republicans or Democrats or Independents.
People still don't know how it works, despite the innovations of internet.
And we all know they don't watch the films and just pick based on what critics choose,
AS LONG AS THEY UNDERSTAND THE FILM

Bold refers to the fact that the best nominee won.
