I can't believe out of the great films that have been released in the last year (Interstellar, Boyhood, Gone Girl, Theory of everything, Whiplash, Nightcrawler etc.) That Birdman has won best picture.It's a well acted/directed but totally forgettable gimmick of 'Oh look we can make it look like this was shot in 1 take', It wasn't that funny.. or even that interesting.. and I have seen the 1 shot gimmick in other films such as silent house. The only memorable part is the monologue by Emma Stone. People will be talking about films like Interstellar/Boyhood in a decade, Birdman will be forgotten - just like last 2013's winner Argo was! Needed to vent my rage (:

I personally think that Boyhood should've won the best picture for the oscar just because of the amount of work and thought that went into that movie. #OscarSnubs2015

I watched it and found it rather tedious, not the greatest film I have watched. I would've given it to The Imitation Game, one of the best films I've ever seen.

I thought Boyhood would have suited a technical achievement award more than best picture.
If it was filmed in 1 year then I don't think it would even be considered a good film.

Nightcrawler, on the other hand, had Jake Gyllenhaal's best performance to date, a riveting and interesting story, an exceptional script, and cinematography straight out of Drive.

If any film or actor got snubbed this year it was Nightcrawler and Jake Gyllenhaal.
