Another Oscars ceremony coronation for the Most Boring Film of the Year

One again they give 10+ awards to the most boring film.

Last year it was that garbage metaverse movie Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Just goes to show they vote en mass like a school of fish, all voting together without even thinking. So the movie that dominated box office (at a time when our choices were Barbie or Oppenheimer) gets all the attention and awards.

The academy awards are not so much awards for the best films, as they are awards for the films that "performed" best in the industry.

If your film doesn't do big box office numbers, the Academy doesn't care.
It doesn't matter how good your film actually is. That is completely irrelevant to an industry-funded, industry-run awards show.

My, my. This so real. Real talk. Real one with the superior taste and universal knowledge knows best (preaching to its snotty salty choir).

In other words, waaaa waaaa waaa!

Cope on, boi

Well at least the execrable crapfest Barbie did not win. They've got to nominate some movies. One of them has to win. Better a boring pretentious history rewrite than a hatefilled stupid anti-man wokefest.

Both are terrible ideas that I don't want to see.
