I see this a little bit like Hitler announcing his movie standards, to be implemented in 1946. If you get my drift. ;)
well, that’s the final nail in the oscar coffin. Awards are now 100% useless.
This is why American movies suck.

Winner!
Best Picture Award*
*Meets Diversity Quota Standards
Didn’t they also make a requirement that movies must have a communist propaganda theme, or they cannot be made?
Yes, lets not reward folks for the “content of their character” but instead be sure we have the right mix of “skin tones” first and foremost./sarc
Directors, please DON’T pick me for a role I am the best qualified person for, if I don’t help make your “diversity” quotas./sarc
Trump’s fault.
Lefty fascists continue their efforts to RUIN EVERYTHING!
All quiet on western front, bridge on river kwai, Lawrence of Arabia need not apply I guess?
“...and now back to our movie: The Jackson 5 Story starring The Osmond Brothers!”
H/T Cheech & Chong...
How about a KKK documentary?
Well, they could lynch 51 per cent of the cast, I guess.
Great news! This will put Hollywood out of business and others who want to make money not kiss ass will start making movies People will want see.
“All quiet on western front, bridge on river kwai, Lawrence of Arabia need not apply I guess?”
The King’s Speech, The Artist, Young Frankenstein, Annie Hall, The Godfather (I & II), Loooooooooooooooong list to be sure.
> What if you want to make a movie about a time and place where everyone was white? <
Good question. I guess youd have to pull the old parallel universes trick. At the very beginning of the movie: Imagine another time, in another universe, where Generals Eisenhower, Bradley, and Patton were all black men. (Or maybe even Asian women.)
Then off you go!
Yet another reason not to watch this orgy of mutual gratification.
“What if you want to make a movie about a time and place where everyone was white?”
The Brits seem to have that under control. Example from Merlin: King Arthur is white and Queen Guinevere isn’t. I don’t mind watching racially diverse content, but when it’s historical or historic legend, then no, I want things to have some authenticity or I just don’t bother watching; there’s lots of other stuff available.
