I did not know that anybody went to the movies during the Covid lockdown of 2020.
It doesn’t matter if we go to the movies or not. Us little people have nothing to do with the Oscars. Here is a snippet from the below link. To get more information click on the below link.
“The Academy’s full name is The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), and it’s made up of more than 9,000 voting members. All are film-industry professionals, most are US-based, and almost half are active filmmakers (ie. their most recent credit was 2010 or later).”
