I don't know, I understand that oscars do that sort of thing from time to time, but if you ask me the only question on voters minds should have been which movie of this year was the best? And, was ROTK alone the best movie? The LOR was a great Trilogy, but since when do oscars go to movie series? Remember the title is "Best Picture" not "Best Pictures" If ROTk alone was not the best movie and lets say Seabiscuit was (and I'm not saying it was, just using it as an example) wouldn't giving the award to ROTK just because "LOR was just too great not to be given best picture at least once" be unfair to Seabiscuit(again assuming that Seabiscuit was the best movie this year and I'm not saying it it)?

It is not that I don't like LOR it is just that I don't know if oscars should be awarded in this fashion.
