They should create this awards show called "The Box Office" where they look at the movies released this year that had the most viewers and give them some kind of award, maybe call it "money". You'd know all the winners in advance so there's no surprise but we're aiming at an audience of morons that feels they didn't hear enough talk about their pop slop and want even more so they can watch it on tv and go "hey, I saw that!"

he basically wants the oscars to be the grammys (dominated by chart topping artists/albums/singles) but the grammys suck rear end and get a fraction of the viewership of the oscars

It's the hall of fame not the hall of very good. The purpose of film is to draw money. Only fools deny this.

why are people pretending like they care about which movies win the oscars

the oscars are dead as gently caress the only thing that happened this year was will smith slapping chris rock.

if that didn't happen there would be no oscars discussion at all just like last year

Same reason they're trying to digitize all actors; complete control. Plus it'll make it easier for the public to swallow interviews with resurrected actors, if the interviewer is even more obviously artificial.

That thread just made me contemplate how many people are cheering and applauding at the news that big business is defecting from the Republican Party to the Democratic one, thinking that this will solve all our problems and prove which side of history is correct, and I'm sad now

abigail disney is a member of the disney family who as far as i am aware is pretty public with arguing the disney corporation is a terrible giant corporate cancer and is something that does need to be significantly changed for good reasons

so she's named abigail disney because that's her name not because it's some fan thing

I'm watching For All Mankind, Severance, Star Trek: Picard, and ST: Voyager.

First two are good. Picard is dumb but fun. Voyager is ":smugdon: Rod Roddenberry isn't happy with me, but that's okay. I'll keep watching that garbage anyway."

She should change her name to something less stupid like Abigail Christ or Abigail Mussolini

pachinko is loving awful its like all the bad parts of the book but even worse somehow it engages in naked historical revisionism about the korean experience under japanese rule before and after the empire but because that revisionism is critical of japan and all the important crewpeople are korean americans no one is ever going to call the show out for this and in between the woke branding and the excessively bleak scenery porn theres a good chance itll clean up next awards season despite the fact that i doubt any of you have even the slightest idea what pachinko is

Our Flag Means Death stole the Atlanta Intro thing of having it be something a little bit different while still on theme every episode, and it's good. It works really well for both.

yeah, it looks like for season 2 they decided to rehabilitate the main characters which isn't really working.

I'm watching the Larry Sanders show for the first time and it's been great so far [season 2].
