It's telling that I have no idea if the new Cinderella leading is trolling or genuine votes from woke kids trying to "promote diversity". Neither. It's Cabello stans. |

So apparently the Oscars released the Top 5 for this with voting open on twitter:
Avengers Assemble in Avengers: Endgame (2019)
"And I'm telling you" in Dreamgirls (2006)
Neo dodging bullets in The Matrix (1999)
Spider-Man team up in Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
The Flash speeds up - Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)
So...it looks like this was open to any movie, no matter what the release date was. Does anyone think they were getting trolled so hard that they changed the rules to expand the films or just came up with a random group of films?

The main fan favourite one is just for 2021 films, this is some 'cheer moment' award or some bullshit. |

I... never even heard of Minamata? Well, I saw the title once or twice, and I assumed it was some boring foreign arthouse movie that is four hours long. The movie doesn't look half bad.

This is kind of embarrassing. A Johnny Depp movie no one saw  . Cinderella, a critical flop that came and went. The Suicide Squad was a box office flop as well, but I guess DC fans wanted to have some sort of win. This doesn't even accurately represent what the public or general audiences liked, so it wasn't even worth it on that level. It just shows that dedicated fan/stan bases know how to spam a public vote, even if the films themselves weren't that popular. I suspect this is the first and last year they do this. |

These are more obscure than the regular nominees, legit never heard of three of these plus the Amazon Cinderella thing which I barely remember hearing about coming out. Would be funny if the same movie ended up winning for both which would defeat the whole point.  |

I cancelled my cable, so I’ll be happily avoiding the broadcast this year |

I guess AMPAS wanted to get that No Way Home crowd to watch the show by rewarding it. Imagine if something like Cinderella wins |

I think it's more funny than depressing. By the end you can practically hear him crying behind his keyboard as he loses the ability even to spell properly. He's being incredibly melodramatic. Comparing the Oscars (9 million viewers in 2021) to the Super Bowl (95 million viewers in 2021) and then this sentence... 1. Who's 'we'? 2. Their online poll is not (at least intended as) a way to celebrate movies? What? And then at the end it's an abusive marriage??!! I believe the last contract they signed was for like 12 years and a billion dollars! Not bad for a show that just dropped viewership by something like 60 percent. All that said, I do think all the garbage changes are unnecessary for a show that runs one night out of the year. It's not like they have anything else that's doing any better. |

The thing is a decade ago the Oscars had 40 million viewers. Seeing a drop in rating of such magnitude it's not really that surprising that the AMPAS is panicking and making incredibly stupid decisions. |
