I think people tend to forget that the Oscar Awards isn't about awarding the most commercial movies. It's insiders picking the movies they thought were the best for that year. While it's an entertainment industry, film is also an art so voters tend to eye films that expand their medium. It's something that we outsiders can't buy or influence. This bugs all the right people IMHO.




The president of teh Academy seems to have forgotten that too when he said that the Oscars represent teh views of society, if that's true, why isn't society watching the film. It's a foolish artist who thinks the only reason his art is unpopular is because socitey "doesn't get it".

I've alwayse viewed the Oscars as being the same as the Yearbook Comitee in High-Schhol. It's where all the self=proclaimed popular kids sit arround and give themselves awards.
