I'm pretty sure that they are gonna backtrack this decision. Their obsession with ratings is a joke.

· All 24 Award categories are presented on stage in the Dolby Theatre, and included in the broadcast.
· Four categories – Cinematography, Film Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, and Live Action Short – were volunteered by their branches to have their nominees and winners announced by presenters, and included later in the broadcast. Time spent walking to the stage and off, will be edited out.
· The four winning speeches will be included in the broadcast.
· In future years, four to six different categories may be selected for rotation, in collaboration with the show producers. This year’s categories will be exempted in 2020.
· This change in the show was discussed and agreed to by the Board of Governors in August, with the full support of the branch executive committees. Such decisions are fully deliberated.
Our show producers have given great consideration to both Oscar tradition and our broad global audience.
We sincerely believe you will be pleased with the show, and look forward to celebrating a great year in movies with all Academy members and with the rest of the world.Academy's response to the backlash
I'm still very confused how will this turn out to be...

Lol I’m sure one of those 4 to 6 categories in the coming years would be best picture. /s

Are we done now, ABC? Or are you gonna try to squeeze out one last hurrah of idiocy just before next Sunday?

Is Laura Dern going to be the president now?

While in general I am opposed to the U.S. instigating a military coup in foreign governments, if they wanted to overthrow the Academy President John Bailey, I would be perfectly happy with that.

This is such a relief. Props to all of the prominent filmmakers who spoke against this

so the Academy's year can be defined by making really stupid decisions that piss everyone off and then backpedaling on those decisions after pissing everyone off.
