Of the best picture nominations I've seen I enjoyed Gravity the most. But I haven't seen Wolf of Wall Street yet and I'm pretty sure I'll like that better than Gravity.
The Oscars are pretty PC, while I think 12 Years a Slave is a very good movie and deserved the nomination and is a worthy Oscar winner, I don't think the best movie won, and that may be partly due to the subject matter. I think Dallas Buyers Club was about as good as 12 Years a Slave.
OTOH I think Steve McQueen did a better job as director than Alfonso, so I think he was robbed of being the first ever Black person to win a best director Oscar. In some ways it almost seems like the voters decided to split their director and movie nods to give Gravity one award and 12 Years another.
