@cjgproduxions Matthew McConaughey AND Jared Leto won Best Actor and Best Supporting for "Dallas Buyer's Club," a smaller film (only $5 mil) about AIDS and the gay community that the industry elevated. It also won for makeup and hairstyling. If someone wants to make a film, they should.

Did people forget that Barry Jenkins won best picture for Moonlight? How could we forget the trainwreck in the way it was announced? What representation are you not getting exactly? 🤔🤔🤔 Ryan Coogler should do the films that he wants to do without being pressured. He’s been respectful in the work that he has done thus far.

@invis4yo I think she's cute, not beautiful. Depending on what a man likes, cute is enough.

@sharrond62 The Oscars can also be about the ART. It all depends on what came out during that particular year.

Oscar’s should be about how popular & successful a film is, something that the general public wants to pay to see…. Not how many boxes it ticks. Thoughts?

@WhiterootBlakfl @historyrock_ I've never been a fan of the Beatles sound, but yes, they are unquestionably great writers. And Quincy might very well have felt the same, but in that moment he was focused on their other talents 😂

@TimoteoDoctor @historyrock_ Which misses the point of The Beatles: they never claimed to be virtuoso musicians like Miles Davis or Weather Report, they did have Lennon and McCartney, arguably the finest songwriting duo of their genre and era.

@Coolpapaboze @nonregemesse Ritchson has embodied Jack Reacher perfectly. His other roles haven't stretched him beyond that yet. He may be like Jason Statham and locked into a particular character type. We'll see.

@nonregemesse Arnold was/is a movie star. Nobody's going to see an Alan Ritchson movie. Also, Schwarzenegger has never been known for his acting chops but Ritchson makes Arnie look like Daniel Day Lewis.

@nonregemesse Easy there. Ritchson didn't proclaim himself the Arnold of this generation - some fans did. That aside, he's doing okay for himself.

@ajclassicjr It's why Spike had to go so long before winning for screenplay - not even for directing. He makes Black films about Black issues. And is unapologetic about it.

Y’all mad Ryan Coogler makes films explicitly about Black men like himself. Y’all want him to be everything for everybody. That’s how he had like a decade of wack films until the first Creed dropped.

@CoolObserver69 @JuanRoures "One Battle" revolved around a white supremacist group and a white supremacist that "got his dick dirty" with a Black woman, then he tried to kill his biracial daughter to hide what he did. But that wasn't a racist movie? 😂

@JuanRoures LOL Winning under affirmative action rules, quota politics, WOKE, DEI, and a completely racist movie on top of it, hardly deserved at all on the merits and meritocracy! But, that's the only way that they can win!

El Oscar de Michael B. Jordan no solo es más merecido que los de ganadores tan recientes como Brendan Fraser, Rami Malek o Will Smith, sino que, además, tiene un fuerte carácter simbólico. Pocos actores encarnan mejor la lucha antirracista. Por eso escuece tanto.

He missed the whole point of the Beatles: songwriting. They played well enough for what they wrote, and what they wrote were great songs that inspired generations of other musicians to write great songs. Creation is the thing. There are many great players, but to fill the blank paper with a unique and beguiling creation that captures the zeitgeist of the times and moves a generation is the thing. 10 seconds of the Abbey Road Medley is better than anything QJ. The Long and Winding Road, Yesterday, A Day in the Life… The list goes on and on. These songs seem to tap into a collective consciousness, a universal shared memory that takes us back to the garden.

@historyrock_ You won't find many musicians who think Paul McCartney is a bad bass player... his use of the instrument, to say nothing of his extraordinary songwriting ability, was profoundly influential...Quincy Jones has a lot of axes to grind, obviously.

@KailSovl The nominations and wins don't always make sense. Movies have been nominated for Best Picture, but not the director. Voters split the wins. Factors other than the art figure into the vote. They wanted Coogler recognized for his work, so he won for screenplay. PTA got director.

@Piggy_Smalls96 @EmansReviews It gave him cred to bring them "Sinners" and not only get the green light, but get a deal for rights to revert to him in 25 years. Only Tarantino has that kind of deal for a film. Funny how life works, huh? If DuVernay doesn't walk, he isn't where he is right now.

@Piggy_Smalls96 @EmansReviews Time will tell if it's a shift or a one-shot deal. Coogler got greenlit because he already proved he could make them money with a predominantly Black movie. Anyone else comes to them with "Sinners" may not have gotten it done.

@EmansReviews I get your point, but the Academy has always done this. Al Pacino and Paul Newman didn't win for decades, then won for lesser work. When they do that, someone else doesn't win for what might be THEIR best work, and they may never get another nomination.

@EmansReviews @Piggy_Smalls96 There may still be years where Black actors aren't getting roles in films that get nominated. THAT part isn't on the Academy. That's on the studios, writers, producers, directors, etc. That's where the real battle is fought.

@Piggy_Smalls96 @TimoteoDoctor Well the academy had to be pushed, twice, with two separate Oscars So White campaigns in order to pump up its efforts to increase the diversity of their voting body. So going in the right direction? Sure... But yeah it'll take a while

@Ezmalay1z @Variety Marlon Brando didn't show for his win for "The Godfather" in protest. He had a Native American women come to accept for him, due to what the country had done to them historically.

@Variety Sean Penn won an Oscar and didn't even show up. That's either the most unbothered move in Hollywood history or he knew something we don't

Sean Penn becomes fourth male actor to win three #Oscars after taking the prize for best supporting actor. Presenter Kieran Culkin joked: “Sean Penn couldn't be here this evening or didn't want to, so I'll be accepting the award on his behalf.” Penn joins Daniel Day-Lewis, Jack Nicholson and Walter Brennan.

@Ezmalay1z @Variety Paul Newman didn't show when he won for "The Color of Money." It was his 7th nomination I think, and he was tired of being gracious after not winning. So he didn't come. And he won.
