All Quiet on the Western Front is a great movie and the new militarists should watch it before they push WWIII on us. 1930 version awesome as well.

[stars & stripes forever]

of hype for the Oscar’s this evening. Hoping all for naught.

“Escapism?”

Escapism isn’t woke that has to include ESG/LGBTQ in EVERY part of a movie and make it normal. Escapism isn’t fantastic superheroes with ridiculous personalities, dubious capability or non-capabilities coupled with jerky action scenes where no one an actually follow what’s going on.

In short, escapism isn’t amoralistic values shaming OR lifestyle adulation. Escapism is supposed to take us away from what they’re trying to force us to tolerate, accept and endorse currently.

Well, that doesn’t help with the garbage they will be honoring at the awards so it makes little difference.

Escapism may be a hard sell with Netflix’s anti-war film All Quiet On The Western Front on the ballot for Best Picture and other categories

Over a century later, the First World War sort of is escapism.

Nobody is getting killed in Flanders nowadays.

Nope, even if they try to tamp down the show, it’s still just slapping the backs of a bunch of liberals.

The Communist Party is not having a good year to boast about.

[Sicon]

unless events between now and then demand it, Kimmel’s opening bit is said to feature only fleeting political references

So, you’re saying that unhinged TDS is played out?! After only eight years?!!

Quitters.

[Shady]

With Jimmy Kimmel as host? 🤣

[clintonh8r]

Yeah I guess that’s why they hired non-partisan uniter Jimmy Kimmel.

“Oscars Seeking To Eschew Politics, Partisanship In Favor Of Old-School Escapism”

that must mean they revoked their “diversity” rule that pics were eligible for nomination ONLY if they were chock-a-block full of LGBTQWERT’s and various skin shades and genders and religions OTHER THAN WHITE CHRISTIANS, right?

[Optimist]

We want to embrace the diversity of talent and nominees
DIVERSITY thy name is wokeness

aiming to stay primarily politically agnostic and controversary free
Sadly liberals think their viewpoint is neither political nor controversial

[sauropod]

Good luck with that.

“We’re not interested in distractions or partisan debate, we’re interested in Tom Cruise,” a 95th Academy Awards ceremony insider says

Then don't invite a partisan scumbag like Jimmy Kimmel to host. No one will watch, and Kimmel will be a big part of the reason why.

Seems this all started when ol’ gerbil butt used his time to denounce China’s wicked humanitarian treatment of Tibet. Apparently Hollywood relies significantly on income from China, so they banned him from the Oscars. Since then stars have been sneaking in their politics and pushed the boundaries until now it seems stylish to spout their leftist opinions.

[Trump_Triumphant]

Who is getting bitch slapped this year?

[Allegra]

I’m not buying it. The wokesters can’t resist shoving their obsessions down everybody’s throats.

I haven’t watched the Oscars since I was a teenager and haven’t missed it.

[nickcarraway]

Please, no. We live for them preaching to us, and telling us how wrong we are.

[TomGuy]

I tried to watch Babylon, one of the nominated movies, last night on Paramount+.

It was horrible. Filth and crap. I turned it off after about 15 minutes.

If that is the level of quality for nominees, they can go broke.

Top Gun: Maverick was pretty good.
