>Late September is usually far too early for definitive Academy Award predictions, but on this one I’m solid: This year’s film slate will inevitably yield an Oscars Less White.
Some small credit can go to the Academy, which pushed the diversity needle just a tad by adding twice as many new voters as last year (683, almost half of whom were women or people of color).
What does Cred Forums think of making the Oscars more diverse?
who cares, these awards weren't exactly meritocracy to begin with anyway.
Samuel Nguyen
Doesn't matter who's voting because white people are the only ones making movies worth watching
John Barnes
The only good movies so far this year have been white movies.
Benjamin Baker
cant wait for the "Oscar ratings lowest ever" headlines
Matthew Russell
THIS!
There are plenty of good black actors/actresses but the last decent black directors are like John Singleton or the Hughes Brothers. Most of their shit is Tyler Perry level.
Isaiah Collins
Bumping your own thread. But good point nonetheless.
Robert Edwards
DUDE DIVERSITY LMAO
Kevin Gutierrez
The ratings of the awards ceremony will be even lower this year and the Oscars themselves will lose even more commercial value and prestige.
Camden Walker
>no black nominees >"OSCARS TOO WHITE! MAKE THE GALA ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE!" >next year all nominees are black
What does she mean about breaking the status quo? The Academy won't be pandering to minorities this year for the first time since 1962?
Jason Murphy
>Look I'm pro diversity, aren't I so revolutionary? Smashing the status quo like :)
Why do lefties still insist on acting like their side is the underdog? They've been the establishment for years.
Dylan Hernandez
Because they have brain damage?
Jaxson Gonzalez
No one watches the Oscars except mom. It's literally just jews patting each other on the back for an hour and shilling their product.
Chase Bailey
Are they seriously going to praise rapist Nate Parker?
Angel Ortiz
True, have u guys forgotten how many actor and actress die this year? this year Oscar gonna be full an hour for memorial itself.
Sebastian Gray
Of course. Would it really be a shock?
Liam Martinez
can I come and watch with mom?
Carson Ortiz
At least cuckolds like Clooney can shut the fuck up about it now.
Christian Flores
What about Ryan Coogler? Creed was pretty damn good
Ryder Lee
Haven't seen it yet.
Jeremiah Turner
They'll find something to complain about with these Oscars regardless
Easton Green
#OscarsSoCIS
Christopher Lopez
I love how "diverse" just means black
James Allen
Fucking googles demanding affirmative action on everything, why not just turn the oscars into little league trophies and give one to everybody.
Samuel Mitchell
12 years a slave won best picture 3 years ago. boo hoo? Nothing is even gonna come close to a Steve McQueen movie from these amateurs like nate parker.
Alexander Lopez
The NBA wins the "most diverse league" award every year. That's because it's got the fewest white people
Levi Lee
You guys say you want an Emmy's 2.0 - only like 2 white people win but you really don't, although you will reply I am wrong, I guarantee the live threads will be like.
>another nigger? >another google? >another spic? >waaaaaaaaaaahhhh - cumberbatch got ROBBED this is some bullshit right now >Lupita fucking Nuango instead of Cate Blanchete? RREEEEEEE
Just saying.
Luke Myers
Not even that but the last three Best Directing Oscars have gone to Mexicans And before that an Asian The last time white American males won Best Director was almost 10 years ago and they were Jewish
Jason Flores
but those directors actually deserve oscars, whether or not you think they should for the particular movie they won it for. if they give it to nate parker, it will purely be affirmative action.
Jayden Myers
What is that thing disrupting the landscape
Jack Anderson
>what do you mean he's the best actor in the world? Hes white! Give it to the nigger who was just being itself!
John Gutierrez
>#OscarsSoWhite >lol, dumb niggers make your own movies! >2016 - a lot of good black films >fucking cucks! stop giving them awards!
Jaxson Howard
>>what do you mean he's the best actor in the world? Hes white! You're right, Jai Courtney deserves an Oscar already. Same with my man Sam W and Generic White Guy #3.
Christopher Bell
anyone that couldn't see that last year was manufactured by hollywood in the first place is a plebe. There is no such hyperconservative racial oppression in the MOST liberal industry, run by the most "diversity" pushing humans in the world. It was all a shame to accelerate the process and shame the general population along the way.
Alexander Foster
If the movies are good enough to win, that's fine. The problem is that they're simply given awards for the creators being blacks or the material having to do with slavery.
Eli Martin
they'll give them nominees but they wont win and then they'll get angry again
>Didn't give a nod to Hunger >Shame is too explicit >OH MY FUCK A SLAVE MOVIE HOLY SHIT 11/10 TAKE EVERY OSCAR
What the fuck, Academy. You can't even do this shit right with the only black director worth his salt.
12 Years was great tho, McQueen is the one of the best around
Jace Roberts
This
Every single commercial has token black people and other minorities in them now. As do tv shows. Which is odd, considering they make up just 13% of the population.
Landon Miller
Is /pol........I mean /tv right again?
James Turner
So is drama. In fact, I'd expect you autists to demand more diversity not only in casting but in stories, but then I have to remind myself you don't really care about film.
James Bailey
hope so. I hope it's not just more slave shit like roots remake or RACIST AMERICA drama like Loving will be. I genuinely hope people of all ethnicities make as good shit as they can. The mexicans sure have been the last few years, but oscars still so white sure. Every other minority besides black people have to hate BLM people with a passion, you never hear whiny yellow lives matter or brown lives matter movements, cuz they know it's stupid.
Angel Davis
Why kind of Reddit sperg out of a response to a simple fact is that?
I didn't even say it was a bad thing.
Josiah Thompson
To be honest I don't think Hunger resonated much outside Ireland and UK, do americans even understand it?
Isaiah Morales
>diverse just means less white Wew
Gavin Kelly
Oscars have been a shit show with no credibiltiy äfor a long ass time. Who cares?
Easton Cook
Blacks hate whites and they are being told everyday that their hatred is justified and encouraged.
They do not want equality, it is in their violent subhuman nature to want to consume and destroy everything.
Aaron Collins
stupid frogposter
Justin Howard
>joke >your head
Brody Wright
Nice trips
Owen Perry
>t. Libtard media cranks sensing the end of their days while desperately seeking any and all affirmation that their "work" for the last 8 years has amounted to anything substantial
Xavier Flores
If it's more than 13% black movies then that is inequality. Blacks are a minority so according to their logic they should be nominated for NO MORE than 13% of the awards.
Also, Hidden Figures looks like utter garbage. Fences looks good though,
John Lee
>white people are the only ones making movies worth watching
Aaron Diaz
We need Black Only Oscars, it's time for whitey to stand down.
Owen Gonzalez
People like you will lead to the death of the west
Caleb Jones
>yfw you realize blacks actually segregated themselves from whitey in the past
Eli Long
Tell me more about mom. Why does she watch the Oscars?
Samuel Allen
>whitest Oscars in muh age of PCs in some time >BOYCOTT THE OSCARS, FORGET THEM THEYRE POINTLESS ANYWAY >WHY ARENT WE GETTING OSCARS?! >Bout time were on getting nominated y'all!!
They stood a chance to help tell everyone Hollywood is the most bullshit ever including the Oscars, but it wasn't even weeks till they changed their tune. Absolutely disappointing.
Michael King
This might just be me, but I think merit should belong to things that are genuinely good and exceed using the craft, and not based on the color of someone's skin or gender.
Elijah Walker
La la Land will sweep the awards
Chase Baker
Posting on an anime imageboard only helps towards the cause
Owen Barnes
Shut up, racist bigot
Aaron Allen
Shouldn't the academy care more about celebrating truly quality films instead of hamfisting diversification as a criteria for quality in a film?
Nathaniel Campbell
If I turn the television off, will she die?
Oliver Smith
If the Oscars becomes a black history appreciation event for the third year in a row, I will literally kill myself.
Kayden Ortiz
>they're sure to upset the status quo
Why do liberals still think they're fighting the system? Congratulations, you won. You are now ''the man''.
Robert Richardson
>The study shows 77 percent of the NBA players were black, 18 percent white, 3 percent Latino, 1 percent Asian and 1 percent "other." International players, after a steady rise in recent years, stayed steady at 18 percent. >The NBA was again the only men's professional sports league to receive a combined "A" for race and gender in the annual report released Wednesday by the University of Central Florida's Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport. So you get an "A" in diversity if 77 percent is black? Makes sense.
Gavin Roberts
>tfw mom stopped watching cuz she's sick of the race nonsense
Ian Cooper
I'm pretty sure BET has their own awards shows. Naturally no whites have a reason to watch BET so it's not good enough. Dey want white ppls trophies.
I can't really bring myself to care about this much, the Oscars hasn't been about film as long as I've been alive, it's always about politics and marketing and the best films have never won and are rarely ever nominated.
Luis Powell
Why are blacks so damn whiny?
Asher Myers
>claims blacks are whiny >whines on Cred Forums for 8+ hours a day
Easton Thompson
...
Jordan Wood
I don't though?
Nicholas Long
BET shouldn't even exist. If black people want equality they should stop segregating themselves with channels "made" for them and with the BLM nonsense. It just encourages conflict and childish team mentality.
Mason Sanders
Like this is coming from the blacks.
Just don't watch the bullshit Oscars. It's nothing but a stage for propaganda.
Fuck the Jewish media
Eli Scott
Nonsense. It's not coming from the black. Ask yourself, where are the blacks getting this from? Who is prodding and instigating? Who publishes these articles.
Think about it.
The blacks are pawns.
Joshua Barnes
>whitesplaining forced diversity
Come on user, it's 2016
Bentley Ortiz
I think it's fine if they have their own channels, but if they are going to have them, they should be satisfied with them and not try to dominate all the other entertainment. Naturally we wouldn't be allowed to have a whites only channel but that's besides the point.
It's where blacks are forced to realize that they're a small part of the population since nobody with money is going to invest in big projects when they appeal to 12% of the population at the very most. They want the same amount of money as if they were making entertainment for white people while designing it to appeal to blacks.
David Cox
>It just encourages conflict and childish team mentality
You think the people who run the media don't know this?
Hudson Moore
>have a white-pandering ceremony every year for the past 100 years >give awards only to white people and pat yourself on the back even if what youre awarding is objectively shit (like 90% of the time) >cant dedicate 1 (ONE) ceremony to honoring POC who literally struggle every day to have their artistic (amongs others) voices heard in a system built around killing them
yeah no. Fuck the oscars
Jack Howard
Blacks are not the problem.
Anyone with a half of brain should be able to see this.
Media is the problem.
Who owns media?
Thomas Ortiz
Other than Jungle Book, I have never heard of any of those movies. Were they even good?
Eli Wood
WE GET IT
Christopher Hill
JEWS
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE JEWISH PROBLEM
Isaac Russell
I have to face reality by now: I am a nigger hating racist, but I only hate black people - whiny, violent, savage smelly sub human fucks. Every other race I can tolerate but the blacks, dear god.
There haven't been great black directors because they haven't been given the same OPPORTUNITY to make movies
Angel Brown
>don't you hate the blacks? They're so awful.
Zachary Jackson
>Every single commercial has token black people and other minorities in them now.
I've noticed this lately.
Ryder Sanchez
Why do Americans think Diversity = skin colour?
Xavier Parker
Scorsese will still win everything.
Kayden Sanders
Because America is the only place on the planet that groups people by race.
Brandon Brown
Spain is more diverse than America
Jack Garcia
We don't. That's the media's definition. 'Diversity' is a bunch of people who look differently saying the same thing.
Just you wait. You think they're bringing those 'refugees' into Europe out of the goodness of their hearts?
Andrew Baker
www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt3Gvdu9mtM OH BOY IT'S THAT SPECIAL TIME AGAIN
Hudson Collins
NOOOOOOOOOO
Wyatt Gray
You are probably right that it isn't really coming from most blacks, it's probably a small minority and large group of SJW's
Leo Gutierrez
It's the media stirring up shit.
the blacks are just simpletons being used.
David Torres
It will probably be pretty White again because Nate Parker is a Black Brock Turner, that ruined his chances to be honest
Samuel Garcia
>niggers are overrepresented in entertainment. >having 1 black guy is overrepresentation whites are overrepresented, deal with it
Tyler Johnson
this there arent even any shows which are not porn where white women get casually gangbanged by BBCs you fucking racist pieces of insecure dweeb shits
Brody Bailey
You know Indians and Indian-Americans make there own media right? Thus rendering 'representation' a non-issue.
This is all Jewish media plant bullshit to pit whites v. blacks against each other to distract them from seeing what's really going on.
Carter Parker
They're mad because race relations actually got worse under their watch, especially during Obama's 2nd term. Note how in the Bush era, all the jokes, all the outrage was against Bush for massive fuckups, yet not a word against Obama. Instead, they focused on regular people as opposed to the politicians and blew every little thing out of proportion (eg: gay wedding cake fiasco and gay shit in general), beginning another era of PC culture.
The last era of PC culture was also under the watch of a democratic president, so there is an obvious pattern involved. Lefties/dems simply cannot handle power, they need to be the victim to peddle their rhetoric, but they cannot try to enforce it because it contradicts their victimhood status.
Blake Bailey
>race relations actually got worse They got worse because the Jewish overlords behind the media and the Democratic party WANTED them to be worse.
It was done quite deliberately.
Jackson Rivera
Went a lil overboard on your b8
Alexander Lopez
I think they just left things for too long, that Obama's message of hope and prosperity, and when it came to the 2nd election, it started to show with a much more even vote between Obama and Mitt Romney, of all people. PC culture rose in response to this and the whole Zimmerman/Trayvon incident.
David Jackson
Obama's message of hope and propsperity was hollow*
