Huh? It's an industry award. People who make movies giving the award to other people who make movies. There are no critics in the Academy hence none who vote for the Oscars.

If there's a phonier, more self aggrandizing "industry" on earth than Hollyweird et al, I'd like to hear of it.

"There are no critics in the Academy hence none who vote for the Oscars."

Yea, you bet'cha.
No Socialists or Communists in the Democrat Party, USA.
No chicken-hawks in the BSA.
It [really] was just about sex.
Republicans are homophobes, racists & bigots.
Have you heard, there's a "Vast righwing conspiracy" (honest). :o)
Democrats fight for the "little guy" (and everything else moral & decent).
"Bush lied. People died".

Need more?
Well you get the idea, huh.

Say, Vic.

...can you spell naive? ;^)

Right! The Oscars are awarded by industry insiders to industry insiders according to whatever agenda fad is current.
