The Oscar's are filled with doddering old fools who should hurry out and let new blood in.


On the contrary nowadays. You really think doddering old fools would vote for Get Out?

Hopefully not

They would in the same way that a 40 year old dad decides to get an earring for the first time, because it's cool with all the kids.

What did this Admiral guy do to where nobody wants him to be right, or even have a valid point, about anything?


He speaks in truths, which doesn't fit the victim mentality of CE's leftist squad.

Get Out deserves it for fooling so many racists into thinking the movie was attacking white people


Get Out was literally a movie showcasing 'hardy harr, white people is racist cause they're jealous of black folks" and then spent the whole movie poking at white people, while the audience was somehow fooled into going, 'this movie isn't racist at all'

Either Get Out wins, or, we're all racists.

So apparently the social commentary and social satire is completely lost on you.


Oh please do explain it to me.

To clarify, Boss Baby didn't get a best picture nom, it got a Best Animated Picture nom, which just means it was a weak year for animated movies. It'll get slaughtered by Coco anyway.

I dont know how some of you keep up this constant dick waving contest against each other every day. To use Dooms words, it must be exhausting.

News to me that #OscarsSoWhite was an alt-right movement. Ditto for Natalie Portman bitching that no women directors were nominated in at the Globes.

Get Out is an amazingly well made movie, especially considering it was Jordan Peele's horror debut.

It's pretty sad that people can't just appreciate that it's doing well because it's a good movie that a lot of people like, y'all gotta make it about race.

As for Boss Baby... Well it's a passable animated movie so it gets nominated by default. The category is usually whatever Disney / Pixar movie that came out that year followed by some other movies no one cares about.

The only reason I've seen anyone give for disliking The Boss Baby is the commercials were inescapable.

Maybe not having regular TV and never seeing many ads is why I like it more.
