Academy Awards 🙄


I don't think the Academy has a foot left to shoot themselves in.

I usually enjoy the awards shows, especially the Oscars but yeah, they seem to be tripping over themselves of late
The leadership should be dragged out behind the woodshed and newer people put in charge
Also, that Kevin Hart stuff was way overblown, it was not a funny bit but it wasn't hateful and mean spirited either imo


And a 'popular movie' category would be a very good thing
Action, superhero, horror and other blockbusters that never win awards deserve a bit of mention

The people in charge should have learnt a thing or two from the much-maligned 1989 ceremony.

Lol, very true. After a few viewings, it gets tiresome to wait for your fave movie or actor get an award, and sooo many commercials! It gets soooo boring and annoying! We quit watching when "American Beauty" won best picture.
