    No joke, Russel Simmons should hired to make the Naruto filler episodes. I think he would really be able to show us the struggles that ninjas go through when nothing plot related happens.
    edit: Like Naruto the point of this 'awards show' seems to derive from the exciting content or celebrating achievements of the show and they instead focus on people talking.

      It's not a white industry its America industry the industry has been inclusive of others by a the control of a majority. Life does not work like go segregate yourself , do you own thing. Walmart beat out all the other stores because of capitalization of the market. life works by being included or having a share in mainstream economics.
      In the Vietnam war an America war, more blacks were sign up than other members of the population. Black where included in that party.they could just do there own thing an not sign up for the draft. The system has to have s degree of fairness.
      We have employment laws DEFH EEOC agency why is been proven brown v board of education like race support like races, and limit others prosperity in how they portray others races to the masses. the government recognized discrimination or (institutional racism) and there's to stop it. It's just more hidden. You can be the product but you can own it. Donald sterling mentally.

    Emmanuel Lubezki Morgenstern won an Oscar for cinematography , he's Mexican.
    Alejandro González Iñárritu won for best director last year and this year, he's Mexican.
    Don't say that people of color can't win or are never nominated. Take it up to the studios if you have an issue. People work hard for this films and they are pretty good. The movie I believe should have never been nominated was Steve jobs. The walk was way better. Straight of Compton was not that great but people love it cause it's NWA. We grew up with the music but I don't think it should be nominated because of that reason alone.

    As a Puerto Rican who enjoys many forms of entertainment from black people, I say this with the most respect I can possibly manifest...you guys just make shit movies, also you are a minority in Hollywood so stop being shocked when you're not nominated for EVERYTHING you do. Other minorities get it way worse than you do in this business of entertainment. I would even say that you don't even get it bad, you're just the loudest when complaining.

      Are you serious? It's each race saying oh let's have pride bla bla that keep racism alive. If each race was color blind Because were all just humans who should help each other and be equal no matter the race ... Keeping race pride is a form of race segrigation which keeps every race down in a sense if people got over the face of race things could start changing for the better .

      @pyroblast3000 8 років тому

      devon dominguez If you choose to deny information that your eyes give instead of just accepting people for what they are then that's better, being colorblind is hiding from the truth of reality just to accept that reality that's not change for the better. That's lying to yourself to tolerate people that's different than you.

    Education 1.not a award issue its a industry issue.(ppl not mad about their effort in the competition, mad they can't sign for the competition) 2.minorities are doing their own thing. But need a World market. A small store can't compete with Walmart's(capitalization)
    3.its Institution racism(if the owner of a company does not hire me cuz of my race. What can a racially do back to him. 4 the media make issues, Latinos complained (Eva longoria) Latino, Hispanic,spaniard, native American, can't be differentiated to audience. Latino/white is not a media story like Blk/white 5. Blks always complain The Sony hack showed Denzel limit in usage to appeal to int'nl market. Consider only blk's scene are cut out of movies, edited out of trailers, and taken off movie poster(Jon boyega) in certain markets. 6.make your own movies get better actors, scripts and roles are approved by a studio if a minorities write a movie it may not be approved or the studio will buy the script and change the content. (Gods vs Egypt)
    7.Fyi BET, NFL, NBA owned by whites/Jews.

    @kdee868 8 років тому +1

    why just aknowledging that the oscar is mainly a white audience...does black movies are great enough to speak to a wider audience? i think not...the way black movies are scripted always tend to depict a form blackness...a form of story that only talks to blacks and thats the problems...this is something that put anyone in a discomfort of appreciation and a feeling of not belonging...some will give it a smile having difficulties to " digest the script" others like me are really bored....whats anyone feelings about this?

Why is it all dark and looking like it was shot in a night club. If you want people to value our product in the same light as theirs, we got to make is classy. Hope next year is much more professional than this.

      Being more "professional" is an illusion. It shouldn't matter if he's cursing or not because words are words. The message is what's important. Grow up.
