These UN-AMERICAN, idol-worshipping, Obama-cult/HollyWeird fascists will never give any credit to anything that resembles conservative thought, principled reasoning....
... or common sense.

Just my humble and long-considered opinion...

I know which film will win next year...

“Cloud Atlas”, a real crap film where every bad guy, killer, thief and evil person is a white male and the heroes are black, gay, female and Asian.
The white men are racists and homophobes and evil and ugly...

Crappiest film I ever saw.

>> Of course, there isn’t much an outcry inside liberal Hollywood.

Hollywood sat by in silence while a filmmaker was seemingly accused by the Admin for inciting 9-11-12 terrorism. Hollywood has no integrity.

“Cloud Atlas”, was made by the Wachowski brothers...the guys who brought us ‘The Matrix’; Andy and Lawrence... Now Lana after his/her sex change.

The cast includes Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Susan Sarandon, Hugh Grant and more...

Crappiest film I ever saw.
Pure PC propaganda with no plot and a monumental waste of time.

No Oscar nomination for 2016 is the highest form of compliment Follywood could bestow on a high grossing film.

I did not find the film worthy of an award. It was well intentioned. But it was poorly done. Dinesh put too much of himself into the movie. That distracted from the allegedly intended message about Obama. That is not great film making. This is the plague of our side. We lose focus in our message. We again need the great communicator or great communicatorS.

Being snubbed by those far-left fascists is a badge of honor. That said, I haven’t watched the Oscars in 20 years. ‘eff them.

Who really cares about oscars anymore? The thing to do is to starve out the bad and liberal flicks. Eventually, it will come down to the dollar for the hollywood big mouths.

.... Well .... this is no surprise to me. In order for a film to actually make it to the realm of an actual "Nominated" film, your movie has to make it through the nominating process. This process is comprised of members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences actually viewing and critiquing films that qualify for this process.

When I was on the committee I had to personally screen almost fifty projects!!! At times there may be well over a hundred. And before the advent of home media systems ... a person would be required to physically attend screenings of the possible nominees!!! All I can say is ... Thank the lord for the progress of technology!! ..... So the question I had to ask myself was ..... "How the heck am I going to screen all of these films?!?! Where the heck was I going to find the time to do so??? ..... The answer was actually quite simple ...... Heck .... there is no way I was going to screen them all!!!

So I proceeded to look at the copies sent to me and read the synopsis and plot overview of the films and whittled down the list of projects that actually piqued my interest and ignored the rest. My point here is .... most of the members of AMPAS tend to be on the Liberal end of the social and political spectrum .... and, other than a few film zealots that take their job seriously .... the majority of members on the nominating committee, whether they admit it or not, use the same system I used. Therefore most of them would have just set aside "2013" into the "Don't Watch" pile because of lack of interest and moved on to a more socially or politically appealing project.

Yes the system is rather one sided and biased.... but that is how the system and machine is set up. So to expect a conservatively bent project, even though it may be based on fact ... to actually make it to the top of the heap as being nominated would rather tend to exist only in the realm of wishful thinking. Unless a project is so called "Critically Acclaimed" by critics and winning praises in the Hollywood community .... that just wouldn't happen.

The Academy Awards is a glorified trade show. He should consider it an honor to be excluded.

Meanwhile, AlGore’s Mockumentary won the gold-flake award for a hilarious movie by a failed ministry student who switched to law and barley passed and who then became a senator because of his daddy’s political ties, who purchased a mansion that consumes as much electricity as a small town, and who decided, after so much success that he was, after all, a prophet of meteorology who had to save the world and make a few billion dollars on the Chicago “carbon credits” exchange in the process.

I think the Oscar has become some kind of foreign commie award that Americans are not allowed to win. This would explain why D’Souza is not eligible to win one.

I no longer care at all to watch as these overpaid morons who pretend for a living pretend to be happy that someone else won the award they’d sell their souls for. Clap clap clap...with tight little smiles. LOL

However, I really liked the Life of Pi.
