I don't know who really watches the Oscars anymore. The nominees?

ETA: last year hit an all time low of around 27 million

It's not going to win best picture. I follow several awards blogs, none of which have it winning, some of which don't even have it being nominated. Starting a thread just to make sure everyone is riled up over a black movie winning to prove some type of Hollywood conspiracy is tired.

I think Moonlight got nominated and rigged to win after some executive did an extensive google search for keywords involving gay, black, and movie. And it probably wasn't even in the first 2 pages of results.

Whole bunch of rednecks upset in this thread for a hypothetical that won’t even happen.

Michael B Jordan is so bad in BP that alone should take it out of the running for best picture.


I just watched it for the first time about two weeks ago, and it was actually a pretty poor movie.

As far as Marvel movies go, I'm not sure it cracks the top 10-12.

Shakespeare in Love

This isn't a bad movie. Crash is a bad movie. Shakespeare takes a lot of heat for winning over a better film. Doesn't mean Shakespeare is bad. Crash is garbage. Total contrived race baiting garbage.

The Academy, and ABC for sure, want good ratings.


So you want to give achievement awards to less good movies so the ceremony gets better ratings? Is that what you’re saying?
