Will need quota of diversity to be eligible for Academy Awards

starting 2024, the Oscars will be more woke. All aspects of a film must meet minority, gay and disabled quotas for actors and crew.

Will minority back lot hookers and drug dealers taking care of the cast and crew count toward that quota?

A good idea would be to boycott any movie that qualifies.

Not kidding.

maybe it is a ploy to allow back some of the ostracized pedophile rapists to be directors and executive producers ...

Next step will be California requiring that you show a qualified mix of minorities and sexual preferences in your household before you can buy a house. Or rent an apartment.

Come on, man, give Hollywood a break.
The Oscars used to be given for talent, and obviously there isn't any left, so they have to improvise.

This is actually the least objectionable place to do this. It's an industry not involved in anything necessary to feed, clothe, transport or shelter anyone's family. They could totally make films unwatchable and who would care?

Politics aside, films with social agendas tend to be boring and predictable. When a movie seeks primarily to indoctrinate, rather than entertain, they should pay people to watch it-not vice versa.

Amen! I cannot stand getting 10 minutes into a movie or tv show and realizing the producers just want to teach me something that’s wrong with society

And yet, the world listens to these empty-headed hypocrites, right?

Not why we watch, right?

And occasionally, you run across a pure propaganda piece. They can be amazingly subtle and well-crafted. It is Hollywood, after all.

And of course, hypocricy is the star of the show.
