I find it well and good to see Korean filmmaking receive its due with Parasite last year and Minari this year — and find Chinese-born film director Chloe Zhao to tell American stories better quite competently. She has been creating buzz since before Nomadland. Not woke pandering in these instances.
It’s a stinking, rotten shame that we get fairly decent coverage of America by the UK Daily Mail and not our own media.
They should have their own channel here in the USA
Best news I’ve read out of Hollywood for a while.
i am not into watching circle jerks.
Liberalism always consumes itself. The trick is to avoid the nation getting consumed as well.
An older sister of mine is an avid movie watcher. Her and a daughter of hers usually try to see every Oscar nominated movie, before the Oscars.
What she had to say about this year:
1. A large number of the nominated films were just barely out and some not even in movie theaters or pay-per-view yet.
2. So many of the nominated films are just depressing.
The Oscars would have a dull uber woke event no matter what this year, because so much of what Hollywierd offered was dull and depressing.
I saw a twitter post saying it doesn’t matter they lost money on poor viewership of the oscars, because they make up the money in so many other ways.
There are really only about fifty plot lines for drama since early Greek times. The Greeks used one that Western Civilization has never used, but give it time.
However, now, when you click on the TV to watch entertainment, there are some new ones. One show heralds multiculturalism, go to another show and it is about diversity, next, inclusion, then cultural cancellation, then Critical Race theory. That is why entertainment is in the toilet, and a witness that mainstream American culture is not as wounded, or woke, as it is made out to be by the leftist media and education.
the sad part is 9-million people watched this twaddle...
But in all fairness to Hollyweird, there were no blockbuster movies last year because of COVID shutting down all of the theaters, so I’m surprised they even had an Oscars program this year.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch of cultists.
I’ve only read about the Oscars after they were over. I am surprised they can get 9 million to tune in.
And they are supposed to be in the business of world class entertaining productions. How odd.
What next, News media outlets that don't provide any news, but offer only corrupt lies and leftist activism?
