Anyway, Oscar has become a highly biased and somewhat politically motivated...the most overrated Award program today. An entertainment fest for a group of people that they organized and maintain just for their own recreational purpose. Don't care about it anymore.
News Flash- it's ALWAYS been biased and politically motivated. And it's not about stars having a party for their amusement- it's called MARKETING.

That said- I don't begrudge the industry doing what it can to turn a profit. It's a fun show to watch if you don't get too involved, and to many of the winners the award is sincerely appreciated.
