Gee...I wonder why....

Ummm, why should I care?

Because it's so homophobic of them not to give the award to Moonlight? You of all people should understand that...

Why should I of all people know that?

Moonlight is this year's The Artist.
In ten years the only Best Picture nomininee anyone will be watching is The Arrival. Maybe Hacksaw Ridge.
The Academy is a joke. They only nominate what the industry shoves in everyone's faces starting in November.

The Oscars were four months ago. You can stop melting now over a movie you've never seen.

I watched Moonlight at a 4 o clock showing on a Tuesday at Tinseltown. I wanted to see it after watching the CBS Sunday morning story on it.
It had very powerful moments, but it had a very loosely held together plot, the best actors in the movie were gone after the first 30 minutes, that spinning camera crap literally gave me an upset stomach, and I fell asleep towards the end.
It wasn't best picture, don't care about the gay.
I didn't even see The Arrival until after the Oscars.
Also, my rant is about the greater issue of studios telling the Academy what to vote for.

well what movie won the BET Movie Award? 
as for moonlight, it was a good film, it wasn't a great one. i didn't mind it being nominated for best picture, it just had no business winning and everyone knows it. and everyone knows why it did win.
lala land was the superior picture on every level tbh. i don't mind a "black" movie winning if it's the best picture (12 years a slave & steve mcqueen are excellent) but I do mind when a movie wins simply because it's a "black" movie. moonlight was a solid film that hit the jackpot in terms of luck with the social & political movements of the day.

It seems like the Oscars are far better with their acting winners than their Best Picture and Best Director winners. How many movies from the '30s, '40s and '50s are still remembered and highly regarded today? I would say It Happened One Night, Gone With The Wind, Casablanca, On The Waterfront, and The Bridge On The River Kwai and that's about it. Compare that to Cannes whose Palme d'Or choices have held up very well with movies like Taxi Driver, Apocalypse Now and Pulp Fiction winning over the years.
