The info page of IMCDB says: “You will find here one of the most complete list on the web about cars, bikes, trucks and other vehicles seen in movies….” And is well known around the world that the Oscar awards are the most important and/or (at least) the most popular movie awards.

With time, IMCDB give us now the possibility to know which movies (with vehicles, at least as backgrounds) were awarded with the Academy Award for Best Picture from 1928 until now.

You’ll see the year award, not (in some cases) the production year.

I hope you’ll enjoy with this list of movies.

That's actually an interesting list, good idea

You have got to be kidding me

The 1980 Oscar should have gone to Raging Bull, of course.
(and 1997 Oscar to L.A. Condfidential or Full Monty)

2008 No Country For Old Men - http://imcdb.org/movie.php?id=477348
2009, Screened on February 22nd

The Oscars (Best Film) are listed by year production, so 2008 Best Film, Slumdog Millionaire is here http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1010048-Slumdog-Millionaire.html

On march 7th a new edition is coming and for the first time 10 movies are nominated in Best Picture Award. IMCDB is (almost) ready for this:

10.- Up http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1049413/ and NOT IN THE SITE. So..... since I don't like to work animated movies and I remember well some vehicles while the old man was at the City....those of you than could like animated movies...hurry up!. UP must be here before 7th march.

On february 27th 2011 we'll know the winner.

For the moment, nominations for the 83rd Annual Academy Award are:

1.- 127 hours http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1542344-127-Hours.html

2.- Black Swan http://www.imcdb.org/movie_947798-Black-Swan.html

and 10.- Winter's Bone http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1399683-Winter-s-Bone.html

ONLY The Fighter is waiting to get its own page on the site. Is there someone who wants to work this one?

I doubt the Oscars will be more entertaining than this year's Golden Globes with Ricky Gervais.

"And thank you to God... for making me an atheist."

Updated this post with the 2010 Academy Award for Best Picture. The Oscar goes to The King's Speech http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1504320-The-King-s-Speech.html

Good list. i was searching for it.

The 84th Academy Awards ceremony, hosted by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), will honor the best films of 2011. The ceremony will take place on February 26, 2012, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California.

The nominees for Best Picture are:
1.- The Artist http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1655442-The-Artist.html
2.- The Descendants, not listed on the site. http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1033575-The-Descendants.html
3.- Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, not listed on the site.
4.- The Help http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1454029-The-Help.html
5.- Hugo, not listed on the site.
6.- Midnight in Paris http://www.imcdb.org/movie_1605783-Midnight-in-Paris.html
7.- Moneyball, not listed on the site
8.- The Tree of Life, not listed on the site. Well I have found a page for it but there are not pictures http://www.imcdb.org/movie.php?id=478304
9.- War Horse, not listed on the site.

Do we have a lazy year? Nine nominees and only 3 listed on the site.

Edited: Added The Descendants. Today 4 listed.

No se si "lazy" o que se yo, pero de mi parte, pretendo seguir subiendo peliculas, documentales y series de mi país, que debe ser uno de los más subestimados acá. Cuando llegué a fines de 2009, habia apenas 35 autos de origen argentino y no más de 10 o 12 películas listadas. Hoy, gracias a que me registré y colaboré mucho (muchas veces soportando desprecios) hay mas de 900 autos y 100 películas fácil.

Perhaps it is more difficult to obtain new releases this year? (although, Megaupload and some other sites only died recently...) Or maybe the people who usually process trailers have decided to wait for complete movies to be available before making a page?

Of course, it may also do with the viewing preferences of our users- the list is mostly made up films of that didn't get very widespread releases or a great deal of attention outside of the critics. I would love to be the one to do The Artist though, that movie had a lot of neat vintage cars.

And the Oscar goes to...




..and I do plan to finish it out as soon as it comes out on DVD/Blu Ray.

Yes, thanks. I forgot to check this post. Now updated.

Nothing from Jale's contribution list...

Most of these movies I watched years ago, and my contributions are from movies, that I watch now (usually I don't watch movies twice - and I mean any movies, not only bad, cheap or boring).
