Well, a movie they made earned universal acclaim and the Academy Award for best picture last year, and they’re in good shape this year too, so…yes?

  Roma did not win the Oscar for best picture, but it did win other 3 oscars: Directing, Cinematography and Best Foreign Language Film.

  What is this movie please?

    Roma won a bunch of awards in 2019. In 2020 stuff like The Irishman, or maybe Dolemite is my Name could be in the running.

      and still those movies would have been produced anyway, because they come with a nametag. maybe not with glorious sets and co, but with some direction. compare that to all the telenovela/80s-B-Movie-style crap, which makes up 80% of the content.

        In fact, as far as I can tell Roma was already made (paid for by Participant Media), before the distribution rights were sold to Netflix.

  one movie. but they're not selling you one movie for ten-ish $s? They sell you a big package of crappy and less crappy TV-shows. Basically about the same as public TV here (Europe)

  Green Book won the award for Best Picture last year. It was not made by Netflix. I do think Netflix has made a lot of good (and less good) content. But that statement is simply untrue

    2019 is still the current year. 2018 was won by Shape of Water: https://oscar.go.com/news/oscar-news/best-actress-2018-frances-mcdormand-wins-2018-oscar https://oscar.go.com/news/oscar-news/best-actress-2018-franc...

it has become mental for me at this point. i tend to skip anything done by netflix studios... it has to do with the rate at which they are pumping out movies, shows & documentaries. most of them are not very good. but netflix has some of the best standup comedies ever and that sandra bullock movie wasn't too bad. even though it's scorcese, i am not interested in irishman at all...
