aware of dog posted:Iirc it was adapted from an unproduced stage play or something like that Yeah. It's in the right category. I feel like La La Land is the favorite, but it could end up having the 12 Years a Slave "we don't want to look racist" effect.

Vegetable posted:It's partly an instinctive response to last year, but this year also had a ton more quality black films. Last year was just Creed and Straight Outta Compton. This year's black contenders are better and white films were on the whole weaker. Samuel L. Jackson in Hateful Eight, Benicio Del Toro in Sicario, Chi-Raq, The Assassin, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, Girlhood, Tangerine This is just a quick run through of some of the most acclaimed films of the year, including a couple that were nominated. I'll give you that it's a problem when minority filmmakers and actors need more presence and access to funding, but it's not like those films were non-existent, it's just that the Academy ignored them in favor of dreck like Brooklyn.
