What recent movie from the last 5 years has everyone heard about?

I read some stuff about the Oscars, I had no idea what any of these movies were, maybe they were good. Maybe they were bad, and it got me thinking. What is the last movie that everyone heard about?

To quote the NYT, One Battle After Another was meh... and it took 6 gongs. I've seen it and meh is generous. Sinners was solid but won't be remembered as a classic.

Not a strong year for cinema. Arguably part of a longer streaming-driven trend.

The last Oscar nominated movie I have seen that was an absolute classic was Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, and that won in 2022.

Have there been any worth remembering?

For pure “everyone’s heard of it” in the last 5 years, it’s basically Barbie and Oppenheimer in 2023. 🎀💣

Before that, Avengers: Endgame (2019) was massive worldwide, and Joker the same year was everywhere too.

Dune: Part Two and Top Gun: Maverick were huge, but Barbie/Barbenheimer was the last true cultural earthquake-level moment. 🎬✨
