That movie was horrible. Straight up. I can't remember ever seeing another Best Picture winner that terrible.

This explains a lot when it comes to best animated picture. It's probably hard to compete with the amount of money Pixar and Disney have to throw at for your consideration campaigns.
Elizabeth Lennon no dude, Disney don’t give so much money, if they really did that, they would won in every single category, Disney is the second highest grossing company
I wouldn't be surprised if the problem isn't just Disney having the most money to throw - but also because the judges would be narrow minded, and only stick with Disney because that's what they're used to. Like I wouldn't be surprised if they're older, stuck in their ways/rigid, and only ever know of things like Ghibli movies because Disney is attached to them. If there was a more larger and diverse panel of judges (like the Internet/social media provides the average person to be sometimes), then we'd probably see less slanderings of animation and more praise for it as an art medium.
What I love is how nominees campaign their asses off for months, and then when they win they pretend to be astonished and say, "Oh, I did *not* expect this. I'm overwhelmed and humbled!" Uh-huh.
Because while it's arbitrary, it's still a good way to know which are objectively good... there is lots of opinion involved, but if there is enough people with the same opinion, it strengthens the value of the opinion. And if it's an opinion based off of taste, then it's good enough to be viewed as great.
@@TheDeathmail Argumentum ad populum. More people agreeing doesn't necessarily make it "more objectively right." It's still just a subjective consensus, at best. And it isn't even a true popular vote either. It's only among the members of the Academy, which often lean heavily biased in certain similar directions and not necessarily reflective of the views or opinions of the greater movie-going population as a whole.

Rosa Parks story by the whitemen brothers was simultaneously amusing and sad. Amusing because the thought is ridiculous and sad because that is not far removed from reality.
Allowed? Weird phrasing. It does show that we are still appropriating african american culture and be rewarded more than those who's culture it is. Kind of like stealing an idea from warner brothers and making more than they ever did off the idea. Just disgusting and wrong.
Really? Is that why Louise Ranier, a German, won the Oscar for Best Actress for portraying a Chinese peasant woman despite the fact that Anna May Wong WAS Chinese AND American born AND was around during that time? Because this country is a "melting pot"? Please explain to me how a Lithuanian (Paul Muni) plays an Italian gangster (Scarface 1932) and in the remake, an Italian (Al Pacino) plays a Cuban national (Tony Montana)?

More like the people closest to the issues would care while everyone else is either uneducated/out-of-the-loop about it or don't care because they're not personally affected. I've noticed this as an artist whenever I've seen AI get talked about - I care because I, and many other artists, have plenty to loose when AI is misused by other people/corporations, whereas someone with a different vested interest in AI would be more dismissive. Because they're the ones reaping benefits or see benefits for themselves (or project what they think is beneficial to others in a "road to hell paved with good intentions" outlook). Shows that not only should more people learn to be compassionate/empathetic, but also that more awareness, education, and the means to act on what they've learned should be around way more.
Some awards have "people choice award". It's based on audience'vote, but it is not. Audience vote is the most easiest one to manipulate. It just gave us the "illusion of choice"
The fact that the final seasons of GOT got so many emmys and black sails got basically none shows just how important advertising and payed for reviews are
Jovan Lee, I actually agree with you that Oscars really were about the integrity of art then A Silent Voice should have won an Oscar instead of Boss Baby.
Also, I heard that Oscars aim to make LA the only centre of film, which is why foreign shows rarely win, despite being better quality: Wallace and Gromit from the UK, the various anime films from Japan etc
So awesome to see the always impressive Ray Wise. He's just made for sleazy fat cat monologues :-) It's not without reason he edged out Al Pacino as my favorite actor to play Satan himself (seen in the TV-series Reaper).
I knew there was something fishy going on, I just couldn't put my finger on it until now. This is why I really wish peoples' choice-type awards would become more popular.
I lost all faith in the academy a decade ago when the dark knight was snubbed. That was the greatest film of that year, every critic agreed. It wasn’t even nominated. Edit: hey is that Keith apocary at 1:44
This is how everything works. The best films, music, books, art will rarely be seen and never win any awards. Money buys it's own adulation, and humans are the easiest animals to buy off that have ever existed.
Let me ruin this "Adam Ruins the Oscars" just a little bit: Yes, actors and showbiz people campaign for Oscars and awards *BUT* they don't do it completely out of ego. As people know, the entertainment industry is a cutthroat business where employment is anything but steady. So if your indie film or prestige film gets good reviews, Oscar buzz/nomination or even a win can get you steady employment and financial stability especially if you're just a newcomer or someone who's struggling to get by. Awards buzz can get you a higher profile which leads to more jobs and bigger paychecks. It's basically networking but other people are watching.
No. A high studio budget increases the production value. A sappy love story thrown into a real-world event is what hypnotizes a clueless audience into believing it's the best movie ever made. As you can probably tell, I'm not a fan of the film.
But a lot of time there are Breakout movies that were completely unexpected... Also, the foreign language film oscar for example is not determined by money at all...
I thought awards were won based on how much they blatantly pander to what the Academy likes, not how much they pay them to like it. A movie based on a true story about a black handicapped Holocaust survivor making a movie seems like it would be perfect Oscar bait.
That also counts. Most of the voters probably don't like the idea that their vote is essentially bought. They want to believe that their choice is also a "correct" one. So, they get these overly sanctimonious, "socially conscious", "world changing stories that need to be told".
I mean that might work with stuff like the Oscars, but other awards like the Golden Globes or SAG etc. are more commerically focused, at least relatively.
There's definitely a lot of truth in this, but I do think the nominations picked are chosen based on equal parts money AND quality... well usually anyways. Those who don't campaign vigorously often do slip through cracks come nomination time, but studios generally won't throw money at a film/actor/director/etc unless they think that they stand a genuine chance of winning over the members anyways. There are definitely exceptions, no question about that. Though the winners are almost always chosen based on politics and money, that's definitely true.
Makes me feel a little better that I don't watch award shows. I always found them to be like dog shows with people. Only thing missing are collars and leashes.
