	I'm sorry, but I really hate Oscar quizzes that pull this stunt with the years. You're listing them by release year, but in the OFFICIAL HISTORY OF THE ACADEMY AWARDS you're off on everything by one year.

	It is also normal to allow part of the title to be an accepted answer in cases such as the trilogy or the long title in 2009.

	I disagree jeffthepardoner. Whenever the Academy Awards are referred to the date refers to the release year as opposed to the year the ceremony tooks place. Nobody thinks of the The Kings Speech being the 2011 Best Picture Winner for example, it was the 2010 Best Picture winner.

	@jeffthepardoner: It's common practice to list them by release year, and it actually annoys me when people do it the other way around.

	You're joking not just accepting "Precious", right?

	Would you list Pulitzer Prize winners (which also honors works from the prior year)by the year the award was given or when the work was published? What about Nobel Prizes for literature, which are often given years if not decades after a work's publication? To me it's pretty simple. The films listed as 2009 where released in 2009, but this is an Academy Awards quiz. The films were nominated in 2010 for an Awards ceremony that took place in 2010.

	@jeffthepardoner: With all due respect, if the Pulitzer or Nobel Prizes are subjects with which you are familiar, you would do best to confine yourself to them. The Academy Awards are held in February or March of Year X, but the Awards are the Year X-1 Oscars. This is for the "pretty simple" reason that the award is honoring the films of Year X-1. It makes no sense to refer to The King's Speech as Best Picture of 2011, since it is not a 2011 film; its competition consisted of the other films released in 2010, and it emerged as (according to Academy voters) 2010's Best Picture. Should you doubt me, here's are a couple of examples for you, from oscars.org: http://awardsdatabase.oscars.org/ampas_awards/DisplayMain.jsp?curTime=1312520455217 This one shows No Country for Old Men as winner of the Best Picture Oscar at the 2007 Oscars. You will, of course, note that No Country was released in 2007, and was awarded the Oscar in 2008. Here's another, for The King's Speech (shown as winner of the 2010 Best Picture Oscar): http://awardsdatabase.oscars.org/ampas_awards/DisplayMain.jsp?curTime=1312520656986

	IMDB agrees with me.
