So basically they thought that “Straight Outta Compton” should have won Best Picture.

Hmmmm, maybe after seeing which movies were actually nominated, they may have a point.

Models of diversity, just like the current Democrat presidential ticket. “Do as I say, not as I do.” Right.

There is no such thing as a right to recognition.

That and it would be RACIST to nominate someone just because they were black.

Another All-White Oscars? This Is Bull****. [Edited for language]

____________________________________________

Last I checked - Bull**** wasn’t white. It’s about the color of - say - those whiners doing the complaining.

Don’t they have black only awards shows? They sure do complain over the dumbest crap.

I am truly surprised they didn’t give a nod to the Will Smith movie about concussions. I really am. That is a huge agenda for the left to destroy football. they get that agenda and a black guy with a Oscar.

....Worse, in a year when Selma, a film about Martin Luther King Jr., was the best reviewed film of the year—but shut out in every race but Best Picture....

Of course!!!

Selma is the best film evah, when you sign your name to a review.

When you drop a secret ballot, you vote your conscience

Sorry. I lost complete respect for the Oscars and their race game when they have the Oscar to Denzel Washington for Training Day just to have both Best Actors to be black (Halle Berry I believe).

Denzel has definitely pushed out some Oscar worthy performances. But. Not Training Day.

I love how the left loves quotas....after all, it was the ONLY way a POS like Dorkbama the Muslim could do anything except shlep ice cream.

Yup, quotas for oscars....may as well do it, given the sleaze of those demanding it and the spinelessness of those being demanded.

In any case, no one gives a s*** about the Oscars any more. We simply go to the movies that appeal to us....even those who have actors possessing single digit IQs.

An oscar is worth a couple of pennies less than a Nobel Prize in anything other than the sciences.

I enjoyed Creed and it very much turned Rocky into a black movie. With ten Best Picture nominees I thought it should have been given a nod. The director did a great job on that.

So there is a quota that must be met? A certain number of Blacks must be nominated?

Wasn’t this what Dr. King fought against?
