Stepping Away From Politics to the Oscars

Tweet

Years, many years ago, the Academy Awards mattered. People raced to see the pictures that were nominated and watch the presentation like it was the Super Bowl. Things have really changed. For me, when the Matrix wasn't nominated for Best Picture, despite everyone talking about it, I lost interest. When Avatar didn't win but a film no one I know ever watched or has bothered to view free online, it cemented my view. The public means nothing, those who vote have all the power. Hence the Awards mean nothing.
