“We believe there is no best country, best gender, best religion or best color. We want this award to stand as a symbol of unity between nations and the freedom of the arts,” the directors said in the statement.
Really? Prove it.
IMPORTANT NEWS BRIEF ABOUT THE OSCARS:
Staten Islander couldn’t give less of a ### about the Oscars or the actors :)
I’m a B horror movie and military history documentary buff myself.
Want to bet this is the least watched oscars ever?
Just like charbucks, insulting, attacking and mocking 1/2 the country have consequences.
Why are they here? Does their country let Americans come in there and give us free stuff?? Let us over the border without any papers, just walk right in???
I’m fed up with these people.
Most of these morons would not stand a chance of winning the Oscar if there were no “borders” because they are up in the special “foreign film” category. Abolish that category and let them compete only head-to-head with ALL of the films made in the current year. Why give them their own special category of non-US films???
So there’s no best movie, no best actor, no best actress, or tranny or director. They shouldn’t even be having this stupid show.
Down with superlatives... Go mediocrity /s
Even if there's no "best" country there can be no doubt that there are good countries and bad ones.Among the many good countries is the US...among the many bad ones are Mexico,Pakistan and Somalia.
Of course there's no "best" gender.Both genders are equal in the eyes of God.
As for best religion,Christianity (when practiced faithfully and sincerely) is a very good one.Moslemism (I refuse to utter that other word),when practiced faithfully,is a savage,medieval death cult.
Best color? There are many,many,many,*many* Western "progressives" who loudly proclaim that whites are profoundly *inferior*.
The Oscars (the Oscar BTW is a male, where’ the sexism on that?) will be nothing but a bunch of liberal whack job actors bashing Trump, Republicans and Conservatives; oh, and they get this golden statue of some dead guy.
It’s now BLM Oscars now don’t you know
Eff Hollywood, and the commie libtards who populate it.
I lived there for three years in my late twenties, and hated every minute of it.
So, it should be dedicated to Trump.
He has repeatedly called for unity.
Send them to "Best Korea" or "Best Zimbabwe" for a few years, maybe that will encourage them to change their minds...
I see no reason whatsoever to send American kids to die in defense of this One World Trash. Let ISIS or whomever kill them all.
After all, in the awards ceremony, there are winners and there are even more losers...and you CAN'T HAVE THAT in a commie/socialist/forced egalitarian society.
For example, they've longed pushed the practice that holds if your kid's team loses in a tournament, winners and losers alike get the same trophy, correcto?
Can't have anyone's feelings hurt....
Therefore, true "progressives" attending the ceremony tonight should be hanging their heads in shame and embarassment.

So there is no”best,” and everything is the same: all cultures, all lifestyles, all creeds, all customs; all rituals; all pageants. So why not extend this to all movies and scrap the Oscar’s.
Wonder how many US tax dollars went into the making of these useless movies?
“Asghar Farhadi, writer and director of “The Salesman,” an entry from Iran in the foreign-film category...”
Wonder if he’d have the guts to speak up so vociferously against his own country’s regime.my guess is no.
The Academy Awards ceremony is an American event to recognize cinematic excellence in the US. These foreign artists show no shame when they come to our soil, disparage our President and lecture us Americans.
