The Oscars

This hostless Oscars is really good. The people that disliked it are most likely people who either... their favourite (pun intended) movie didn't win, it was boring (which it wasn't), too political (which it always has been. Look at the Oscar speech when Marlon Brando won Best Actor), or got mad when people dont agree with their opinion.

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.

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.

The 91st Oscars has finally arrived! And so has my first review! After being plagued by so many stupid decisions, one would have thought The Academy would do everything in their power to make this show as good as it can be. With no host, we were all wondering how the show was gonna get off to a start. We were treated to a Queen performance as the opening act. Which wasn't great. The lead singer's voice pales in comparison to Freddie. As soon as the first award was announced, we knew this was gonna be a highly politically motivated show. Littered by African American sentiments, Feminist motives, Anti-Trump agenda, etc., the show continued to disappoint at every turn. Though most of the awards given out were highly deserving, the show felt rushed right from the get go. People getting shut off during their speeches was a common sight. God! Why can't you just let them have their moment!? I couldn't help but fall asleep so many times. Mahershala Ali, Rami Malek (Though I was rooting for Bale) and Olivia Colman were the only good parts of the three and a half hour long snoozefest. Don't waste your time sitting through the entire show and just google the results instead. You wouldn't miss much.
