One more reason to ignore it.
LOL! You took the words out of my mouth.
I don’t have any particular feelings about the Oscars this way or that way. I usually watch these things for the show and the stars coming together, the awards themselves mean less than the awards in Cannes, Berlin or Venice, for example. But you can’t get around the fact that these are the “most visible” film awards in the world, even if they aren’t the most prestigious or meaningful, so it’s always interesting to see which filmmakers get a career boost from this, or which established ones get the recognition etc.
