	The next 10 years ... http://www.sporcle.com/games/ruffnerj/picnoms00. 70s & 80s to be released shortly.

	I'm pretty sure Babe was nominated in 1996 instead of Leaving Las Vegas. You'd have to double-check that. Otherwise it's a good quiz. Looking forward to the rest.

	It's just Unforgiven, not The Unforgiven.

	Yeah Babe was nominated, Leaving Las Vegas was nominated for Best Actor, Actress and Director

	Aren't these years out by one?! American Beauty won in 1999 - the ceremony was in Feb/March of 2000, but American Beauty still won the Oscar for the year 1999. Doing it the way you have is not common at all, the way IMDb lists it is not that clear but every other quiz on sporcle adopts the more common practice of year of release.

	@AdamL: I didn't want to have to wait a whole year to do the 00s, so I grouped them by year awarded, vs. year of film. Agree...not common, but something I thought we could all get over.

	Added the 80s nominees (http://www.sporcle.com/games/ruffnerj/picnoms80) and corrected all quizzes to year of release.

	Malick's film is THE Thin Red Line, not A Thin Red Line.

	looking back, i never would have believed the godfather III and the green mile were nominated for best picture.

	not a major problem, but "Babe" was directed by Chris Noonan. George Miller was one of the writers.
