Oscars Best Picture: TheWrap Hits Hollywood to Crown the People’s Champ (Video)

And the winner is… Tom Hanks?

Tom Hanks may not have been nominated for Best Actor this year for his performance in “Captain Phillips,” but that’s okay, because his fans have a more prestigious award in mind: Best Picture of the Year.

TheWrap hit Hollywood Blvd. earlier this week to talk to movie fans outside this Sunday’s Oscar venue, the Dolby Theatre, and yes, a surprising number picked Hanks to beat out “American Hustle,” “Dallas Buyers Club,” “Nebraska,” and the rest of the competition.

“Wolf of Wall Street,” “Gravity,” and “12 Years a Slave” were also fan favorites.

Unfortunately, few people could weigh in on the smaller categories — including Best Live Action Short Film, Best Animated Short Film, or Best Sound Mixing — but hey, at least we tried.

Watch the people pick their favorite Oscar flick in the video above!
