Parasite so good it transcends the Oscar's bullshit rulings.I don't even get why Parasite is there in so many categories. Why Portrait of the lady on fire isn't nominated then? Why other foreign movies are just in the Foreign Picture category? Like... It's just stupid. And I love Parasite - it's just the whole method of handling foreign movies is so weird...
Nobody cares about the Oscars anymore, they themselves don't even know how to get back viewership or interest.

Viewership may be on the decline but I'm not sure nearly 30 million people viewing the broadcast is "nobody".Nobody cares about the Oscars anymore, they themselves don't even know how to get back viewership or interest.
Todd Philips being nominated in the best director category over Greta Gerwig is just... lmao.

The "I work with black people" okyedokeDon't forget that completely see through and phony Harriet Best Actress "nomination".
Fucking trash.
They could have at least sprinkled some j.lo in there
They should get rid of the "International" movie category. It is an insult to the medium.
Or some Lupita from Us.
the way Tarantino uses "Nigger" must got the academy thinking he is blackThe Last Black Man in San Francisco should have been in a lot of those categories including Best Picture and Director. Instead we get a middling Tarantino flick.
Didn't even have the common decency to also nominate Lupita Nyong'o.Don't forget that completely see through and phony Harriet Best Actress "nomination".
You know they locked and loaded with that as the "defense", it's so see thru, but you know it will work with a lot of people.As I said, that Harriet nomination is so see through it ain't funny.
Or J Lo.Didn't even have the common decency to also nominate Lupita Nyong'o.
Yes, it will.You know they locked and loaded with that as the "defense", it's so see thru, but you know it will work with a lot of people.
I'm so upset about this. Not a single nomination in any category.
Is J-Lo considered not white? I totally agree she should've been nominated, though.
Sidney Potter won, but his role was magical negro, Louis Gussett Jr won for just being an army dude, Cuba, Whoopi won for ghost(that movie wasn't even good), hudson and regina king. But yeah the academy has a "type" for the msot partSlayven the Academy shorl does love nominating us for roles in slavery era and Civil Rights era films. To change things up, they award us in disparaging roles like Denzel, Halle and Monique won.
Is Foxx in Ray one of the only ones to break that mold?
then the best picture category will be filled with subtitles and no dumb americans will watch this show! we need to contain them and lock them awayThey should get rid of the "International" movie category. It is an insult to the medium.

Not really, it will just mean the foreign films don't get recognized at all. Do you really think Pain and Glory, Les Miserables, Honey Land etc had more viewers or voters than the likes of 1917 or Joker?then the best picture category will be filled with subtitles and no dumb americans will watch this show! we need to contain them and lock them away
J Lo is Puerto Rican.Is J-Lo considered not white? I totally agree she should've been nominated, though.
Awkwafina definitely should've had a nod, too.
you're right, I'm overestimating the Oscar voters by a great dealNot really, it will just mean the foreign films don't get recognized at all. Do you really think Pain and Glory, Les Miserables, Honey Land etc had more viewers or voters than the likes of 1917 or Joker?

Louis Gossett was kinda a magical negro for Richard Gere.Sidney Potter won, but his role was magical negro, Louis Gussett Jr won for just being an army dude, Cuba, Whoopi won for ghost(that movie wasn't even good), you hudson and regina king. But yeah the academy has a "type" for the msot part
I kinda find that category weird too. It's like, "It's not the best film of the year, but it is the best international film." I don't understand the need for seperation.
