A lot of different factors go into deciding whether or not a movie is Oscar-worthy. Some films are created with award season in mind, while others are made purely for entertainment in the most shameless fashion. Rom-coms, for example, don't bring home many Academy Awards, yet they are the best for movie nights and long plane rides. There are multiple transcontinental flights that I'm fairly certain I would not have survived had it not been for "Sweet Home Alabama."
But what if these films were given the awards that they deserve? No, I'm not talking about Rotten Tomatoes lists or the Teen Choice Awards (see also: "The Notebook" winning Best Kiss at the MTV Movie Awards in 2005), I'm talking about the scenes in movies that are wonderful and downright bad*ss but are often forgotten. Check out the list below and you'll quickly understand what I mean.
