Here's why i have a problem with the oscar rules: They're the ones nominating. They can just chose diverse films with diverse cast an crew, and people will get the memo and make more of those if they wanna get oscars. They basically just made a list of how to orcarbait. And let's not kid ourselves. We're not gonna have gay superheroes, a coming of age story about a black teen (like moonlight, or an adventure with 2 inuit palls getting nominations. They're asking for greenbook and the help, at best django. Stories that make white folks say well, I'm not that bad, make straight folks say I'm ok with those 2. They're looking for struggle porn.
Also, just to add, films like 127hours or room couldn't be nominated, for example. And i get that the stardards aren't hard to meet at all, but this only furthers my point. It's a publicity stunt. They're just washing their hands. It's nothing. They're the ones in charge anyway. But niw, we're talking about oscars in september.

To Phil and his team: I know you briefly talked yesterday about the wildfires on the west coast, but can you please go over the fires in Oregon this week or early next? We've been hit really hard in the last 48 hours, multiple towns gone over night, at least 100k people evacuated across the state, 35 wildfires 0 percent contained and the winds are too high for fire crews to even start fighting the fires. Whatever's not on fire is covered in smoke and ash in much of the state. It would be hugely appreciated if you could help direct people to relief efforts in the coming days! Much of what's been hit the worst were not well off areas and a lot of families are going to need help. Thank you for keeping us informed and entertained over the years!

I hope these diversity quotas are open for change and debate as we move forward. As a minority myself, I like the idea of a written-in-stone guideline to promote diversity. However, as an artist, I am scared that these new directives could stifle or bottleneck the market to larger and more affluent companies, and prevent new artists from breaking out into the scene. And let's face it, some of the most iconic and loved films over the past couple decades have been produced without diverse crews and production teams. I support the progress these diversity quotas represent, but I hope they can be fine-tuned in the future, as we learn what is more and less needed.

Oscar wise: I think there's a decently simple change they could implement - make A/B and C/D two categories. Films would need to meet one from each category, so A/D, B/C, A/C, B/D. This certainly doesn't fix anything, but it makes the industry have to conform to some on-screen change whilst keeping some leniency for studios.
Personally, I think this is the Academy disguising complacency as change as they know full well that most, if not all, major studios already meet the requirements for categories C and D.

Is anyone really surprised by the whole Oscar thing? It's the usual 'oh look at what we're doing' but it's only going to benefit the biggest studios and execs who are already doing this. Meanwhile new directors and film studios and the like will have a much harder time meeting these standards if they're just starting out and don't have the connections. This isn't diversity, it's not even woke. It's the big guys patting themselves on the back while not doing anything and trying to keep their industry leads.

People acting like this is nothing more than a symbolic gesture, even calling it woke quotas or any kind of imposition is beyond twisting facts. These rules are basically saying don't have an all white male hetero cis set which I don't know how you could even do nowadays. I think a movie made by Richard Spencer could meet these requirements.
The people that complain about SJW censorship and totalitarianism are usually the most triggered and fragile guys around.

Isn t this kind of like what happened to Black Panther and the Oscars, when they introduced a new category and it felt like they did it to not put Black Panther in the best picture category. I m more surprised that people aren t looking at that tbh. It seems like a blatant attempt at appeasing woke culture by dividing minorities into another thing instead of looking at the people who are already doing that and mixing them in in the other categories.

6: 00 I agree - it's not the right way to go about things to make this bs check list - just recognize the good films already made by the demographics. The awards come off like a weird cult/council of old white money that must be pleased to get recognition and I dont think they've changed that by giving their friends they were already nominating an easy to meet list. I don't want a more robust checklist i just want honest nominations.

Look the academy is a bunch of BS as it is. Movies literally campaign for nominations. That is why we already see a slew of movies no one watched get nominated. because Hollywood is fake a pretentious. This is all just virtue signaling. How about we actually judge art or merit instead of all the BS.
