Rules: If you list more than 4 things I'm gonna just tally the first 4 you say. If you list the same character multiple times it won't count. Be nice. Don't shove your personal definition of "Mount Rushmore" down others' throats. Have fun. If you're going to majorly change a vote please quote your old vote to make it easier for me. Best Picture Winner-specific rules: There's only 96 movies that qualify for this PLUS Sunrise which won alongside Wings at the first Academy Awards before they figured out what was going on and started only picking one winner. See below for full list. If you go off this list I'll just... not count it, so don't waste your votes! EDIT: LA LA LAND DOESN'T COUNT, NEITHER DOES EMMA STONE IN LA LA LAND Reference links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award_for_Best_Picture#1920s https://letterboxd.com/oscars/list/oscar-winning-films-best-picture/by/rating/ https://www.imdb.com/list/ls569015295/ https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/80718800 PREVIOUS RESULTS: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uCR-viOTP-yKhRZnTyvaoXj7teKRA12gz7m-1rfmhoY/ (Sheet 1) YouTube Sponsors: Raid Shadow Legends, NordVPN, SquareSpace, HelloFresh Pizza Toppings: Pepperoni, Mushrooms, Sausage, Pineapple Smash Bros.

Easily the most arguing I have ever seen for a Rushmore. I eventually got to the point where I read "Mario" so many times it stopped looking and sounding like a real word. Most WTF answer: The people saying Smash Bros. counts as a Mario game. I put "no Smash" as a rule pretty much as a joke, I didn't think people would actually want to vote for it. We all know Smash is a Kirby spinoff.

I'm kinda into films, but only relatively recently. Just based on my intuition, I feel like it's Classic Hollywood, a movie that operates as both a mainstream hit and cinema, something representing the modern times, and an archetypal Oscar film.

It Happened One Night
The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King Shakespeare in Love Parasite The first two are hard locked. It Happened One Night was the first movie to win the big five of Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, and Screenplay, which has only been repeated twice more since it did it in 1934. It is a great Golden Age of Hollywood representative that still holds up today. Return of the King not only has the joint record for most wins but also won everything it was nominated for (even Screenplay and Song which it wasnt supposed to), the largest clean sweep in oscar history. It is the most impressive oscar haul in history and so deserves to be on here. Shakespeare in Love is a bit more abstract but I think it deserves it. This is the film that ushered in the age of the oscar bait and modern style of campaigning rather than just having the best film that ran for two decades. Unfortunately this was all down to one Harvey Weinstein and its no surprise that it didnt end until they got him. Its not a good thing, but its win over Saving Private Ryan is do influential it has to be on here. Parasite is the first non-English language winner, and started the current trend of the academy broadly getting it right after the oscar bait era with the broader, younger, more international membership backing a wider array of very high quality films. You know what shouldnt be on here? The Godfather. Its awards performance was actually kind of underwhelming despite it winning Picture. It only won Picture, Actor, and Adapted Screenplay, because it was getting upset left and right by Cabaret which won eight awards, including Fosse upsetting Coppola for Director. As a result the feeling is that The Godfather won Picture by the skin of its teeth, they even opened the acceptance speech with we were getting worried there for a minute. Cabaret won the most awards of any film to not win Picture, and arguably has the more impressive feat. So The Godfather isnt really an archetypal winner, in reality it barely won. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ... Copied to Clipboard!

Gone with the Wind
The Godfather The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King Rocky Rocky is personal bias I will admit, but that's still a really beloved film today. Past that Gone with the Wind and The Godfather feel nearly obligatory and Return of the King is there because it's one of the biggest winners ever in both dollars, being one of the most important modern(ish) movies, and actual awards. HMs: Casablanca (my original Rushmore had this and Gone with the Wind and no ROTK, but I felt a little better also having ROTK on this), Silence of the Lambs, West Side Story, The Deer Hunter, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Godfather Part II, Schindler's List, Ben-Hur, The Sound of Music, Parasite, All Quiet on the Western Front, Titanic (which I forgot even won until some people said it in this topic, even after reading the list over. Several times.) As you may have guessed from that long list of HMs this is a really hard one. There are cases to be made for like 50 different rushmores. --- Born to lose, live to win! ...
