Oscar has never been fair

Oscar has never been fair fully and this year is no exception. At least the standard they use has always been respectable.
I run into this nice blog today about the 10 worst injustices in Academy Award History. A bit too lengthy but also informative. The 10 worst injustices in Academy Award History

I haven't watched it also, boring movies always get to win something as much as I can remember so far


I am as busy as a one legged man in a butt kicking contest

I am watching the show now

I am watching the show now and I am impressed by most of the nominated movies and some of the stage performances like Ben stiller with the Avatar costume. I don't think we should care that much about which movie got the prize as we are only viewers. We all know that Politics plays a huge role in Hollywood but every time I see the Oscars I appreciate how hard the directors, producers, film editors, graphic artists, sound engineers and actors/actresses work to create sth to the level of perfection. Even short movie makers are/have been doing awesome stuff with the limited budget they have.

I haven't watched the Oscars

I haven't watched the Oscars nor do i plan to. I've stopped watching all awards shows all together after sometime cause i find them irrelevant. There's no point in watching celebrities praise one another and make a huge deal of their easy jobs every year like they're saving the world. As if they're not overly rewarded with their spoiled lives already Smiling

good point. The presenters

good point.

The presenters used to be funny in previous awards. The jokes this time were unusually dull for me.


.... really?
