Leo DiCaprio's movie is expected to win big at the 2016 Oscars 8
The 87-year history of the Oscars has many cases where the winning film was later proven to not be the best work.
In 1941, Citizen Kane missed out on the Oscar to How Green was My Valley.
Oscar sometimes ignores classic films because the awards themselves are influenced by certain factors.
Factors affecting the `Best Picture` Oscar
The list of nearly 87 films that have won Oscars shows the American Academy’s tradition of focusing on the comprehensiveness of a film work.
The King’s Speech and Birdman won in 2010 and 2015 thanks to safety at every stage.
As the North American film industry’s own award, the Oscars honor works produced in Hollywood and English-speaking countries.
In 2011, the film The Artist won the top prize.

The democracy in the Oscar voting process also makes it easy for films with unique values to miss the Oscar.
From the beginning of the century until now, when the media era exploded, the value of the Oscar award was more or less affected by lobbying campaigns amounting to tens of millions of dollars.
`The Revenant` has been bet for many years because it is a safe movie
This year, the eight films competing for the most important awards include The Revenant, The Big Short, Room, Spotlight, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Martian, Bridge of Spies, and Brooklyn.
On betting sites, The Revenant is widely expected to win the Oscar.
The Revenant is still unlikely to win the award because last year’s film Birdman, also by Alejandro Iñárritu, was `Best Film`.
`The Revenant` is a solid work in every stage of filmmaking this year.
An equally bright Oscar candidate as The Revenant is the Australian film – Mad Max: Fury Road.
However, Mad Max: Fury Road easily missed the Oscar because the film is the fourth part of the Mad Max (1979) series.
The two candidates ranked behind The Revenant and Mad Max: Fury Road are Spotlight and The Big Short.

The Martian and Bridge of Spies are two candidates with less chance of winning the Oscar.
Meanwhile, Bridge of Spies is about the Cold War.
Room and Brooklyn are considered two weak candidates because these works are independent films with modest budgets.
Room is almost certain to bring Brie Larson the `Best Actress` award but does not have much of a chance of being awarded the `Best Movie` award.
