opinions on the oscars?

[Mayor Monday]

The Oscars are a waste of time. The whole event comes off as a glitzy opinions fest.

Do you like watching them? That's fine- but I'd rather not join you.

Don't care for them or any big celebrity rewards shows. Never been a celebs obsessed person much.

I don't pay any attention at all to the Oscars anymore, but when I was younger I used to watch it. My mom and I liked looking at all the dresses and I liked seeing if my favorites would win anything (they almost never did). I do remember being very pleasantly surprised when Spirited Away won an Oscar, though. It was like it opened the door for anime to become more mainstream.

I should get an UnOscar for the number of years I haven't watched it/them/they.

They're pretentious and there's no point in watching them, but I really want to see Parasite

I think many of the Oscars are rigged specifically for certain actors and movies. Occasionally I think that Best Original Song is also rigged. There are some rigs that are obvious such as Gwyneth Paltrow but then you have ones that are more subtle. I like knowing movies that are nominated for Best Feature and Best Animated Film so I have something worth watching and I like listening to the songs nominated for Best Song as many of the past nominations are really good and only a few are bad and questionable.

They used to be fun to watch, but now I find them boring. I still catch up on the gossip though.

The Will Smith/Chris Rock slap is the biggest event I remember from recent ones.

 

[AccfSally]

Never really cared for over glorified popularity contests.

 

[VernalLapin]

I have no interest in it at all, I’m just not interested in movies or actors.

 

[Corrie]

Literally couldn't care less about it lol

I love the Oscars! I host a party for them every year. Get lots of food, invite some friends over. Usually have a little betting game. I get little cupcakes, and if you get movie right you can have one, it's fun!

It's alot of fun, I also try to watch all of the nominated movies before hand, but some I just can't. I don't always agree with nominations, like Godzilla Minus one, should have been there last year. I mean it was fantastic. But at least it got special effects! Should have won, but I did also really like Oppenheimer. So I was happy!

I get so excited planning them! I also really enjoy the horror movie awards that are hosted by a YouTuber!
