The Oscars

To me, most of these films were a bit weak in regards of quality. Roma is a great film, Blackkklansman is a great film, and even Vice is pretty top notch...but the rest? Forgettable. Probably one of the weaker Oscar ceremonies and the only Oscar ceremonies I watched that stopped watching.

Okay but got boring pretty quickly.

The big issue these award shows now face is that their audience watches film on multiple platforms, in theatres, streaming, cable, free to air TV. The days of everyone going off to the cinema to watch a popular movie are gone, never to return. The impact the awards have is greatly diluted by this fact, the quality of the output is as good as ever but award shows that concentrate on one medium seem missing a lot, it's because they no longer reflect the audience. Also through Netflix it a lot less American centric, again diluting the award.

One week has passed by and still I am seeing 11 user reviews, seems very little interest! The 91st Oscars has finally arrived, as usual with too much predictability since the Golden Globes announced their winners! Since the 90th Academy Awards in 2018 had the lowest Nielsen ratings of all time, the played smart for the 91st Oscars without any host. It didn't had an impact, in fact, there was a reduction of one hour time which made me easy to view. It was very easy to guess who would won The Best Actor, Picture and Animated Feature. The only special thing I liked was Lady Gaga's speech. Emilia Clarke was the most well dressed person and my heart was with her. I wish there would be a color pic in the IMDB page! I think someone needs to replace Glenn Wiess to direct the Oscars in order to surge the ratings!

Oscars, is your 3 hours and half of show relevant to the masses as your nominations are?... So much money spent in the production of this show, still they can not make it relevant to the masses and 2019. Come on, Do you see yourself being relevant to the millennials, and younger generations years to come? The award is so pristine, but the show used to be so exciting, so amazing, full of surprises, not any more. The best i can describe the oscars of 2019 is: You have all the ingredients for a good recipe but... you just couldn't make it happen. So frustrating, i feel like i could've done a better job at producing the oscars 2019, you have all the best talents to produce an unbelievable show, but at home the viewers just can't see the hard work put out behind the scenes, i am sorry but it just doesn't translate to our tvs at home.
