I want to see if Sam Elliot wins...I saw A Star Is Born today...
The Equality Opportunity Oscars. I’m sure many of the winners will wonder if they really deserved to win or the Academy cast their votes on the color of their skin or their race.
Spike Lee gave a long speech... Mentioned slavery...Told people to “make a right decision” in next year’s election...He didn’t mention President Trump by name however...
What did Spike Lee win?
Best Adopted Screenplay won by S.Lee...
I don’t care but I do notice that based on the Oscar presenters, nominees and performers, America must already be at least 75% minority.
Gaga won the Best Song...Not a bad speech...
Last I knew attendance for African-Americans and Hispanics is increasing at the cinema. Attendance by whites is declining.
There’s your explanation.
Had to change the channel during the acceptance speech. Jennifer Hudson was mouthing the words along with Gaga.
THAT is what I would have expected from the despicable Spike Lee.
And, according to TV shows and advertising, of the 25% of us minority of majorities, 75% of us are living with or married to one of the majority of minorities and 50% of those are in a same-sex relationship.
(After writing that last paragraph, I gotta go find my English to Newspeak converter ring to make sure I got it all right.)
Boring show, dull mediocre movies I’ve never heard of. Political correctness on overdrive.
I’m shocked. A man actually thanked his wife.
hi all. I too miss the good old days.. the performers may have been libs but they were not as obnoxious and outspoken.
I have really for the most part given up movies. I did hope the Mule (clint) would get something but not even nominated.
Not watching. The threads from years ago were a lot of fun
my favorite oscar joke.
Bob Hope during one of his hosting turns. Welcome to the oscars or as they call it at my house, Passover
Ask first: Does anybody need to know?
Spike Lee’s speech combines back history, racism references, politics, his bio. Should have saved out for the dem convention. Did he say thanx, I don’t think so.
he looks like a bell boy.
Yeah exactly!
The way he was cavortkng around, I was looking for the man in the yellow suit.
I really do wish they'd just shut up about their politics but they've crossed the line and can't go back. I watch the presentations then switch when they give their acceptance speech. Can't listen to them. Just turned off Barbara Streisand. UGH
I think Spike just converted more people over to Trump’s side.
