i think will smith derails every single movie he's in by being will smith

like i've never seen a movie with him and been able to appreciate the concept and visualization that the director went for and instead always think of it as a will smith free for all

i think there is some apparent systemic racism in the general society still, as it's now being called, but black americans tend to overlook the fact that their so-called culture can sometimes be pretty garbage, tbh. maybe that's my view as a white male, but i'm sorry, there are objective levels of quality and some rap is just garbage, just like 'black' movies are garbage (just like some white trash movies are bad - they're just trash - e.g. any Larry the Cable Guy movie). it's like black americans have collectively just decided to label all their works of art as top quality stuff, simply because it's from 'black culture'... which is just a bad idea for any artistic or societal movement

the real cultural accomplishments will stand out. maybe there still is a lot of constraint occurring, but i do feel like American culture has come a long long way away from the racism of less than a century ago.

and yet you have blacklivesmatter protesters who seem to think their 'struggle' is greater than MLK's... news flash: it really isn't even close


You must be a troll cause no one can be this stupid

Im fine with them not winning but the fact that these actors,actresses and movies are deem not even good enough for a nomination is kinda dumb

I think we're looking too far into this.


A symptom of rich mostly white people with nothing better to do.

The debate over potential racism in the oscars is a first world.

War, famine and pestilence. Those are the problems facing the real disadvantaged: the impoverished in third world.
