How come Best Picture winners are usually indie films plebs don't give a damn about, but the Best Animated Feature Oscar almost always goes to a mainstream-studio CGI movie that makes hundreds of millions at the box office?

But they usually make zilch at the B.O.
How come Spotlight (a glorified Law & Order SVU ep that no one remembers anymore) wins over freaking MAD MAX, but Pixar beats the indie and foreign films just for being Pixar?
