any who hollywood is a system built by whites for whites

we should just focus on gathering resources so we can put out our own high quality films, SOC and Beast of no Nation were written by whites (SOC is up for best screenplay :wtb:)

:mjlol: I'm saying, in her own household they saying bullshyt....until it affects their household.

as to the oscars, grammys, and any other "awards" :pacspit: Hollywood doesn't produce Black lead movies/tv shows in droves or even close to their white counter parts....start there before crying about the damn oscars.

can't stand when Black people go about crying and begging to be included in shyt created by and for white people. :francis:



No Black owned movie studios
No Black heads of any major studios

are the reasons. if wealthy Blacks ever decided to create their own studio and start producing more content...they wouldn't need to worry about the oscars


they'll show up in their pretty dresses and suits and take pictures tho...meanwhile NAACP image awards they like "nah"

It's time for them to put their money where their mouths are, for real for real.

Same thing with Netflix's Get down


They don't want you making those films, they rather make the film and tell your story


Shyt im still waiting for the real three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo

The Oscars are more political than anything. if your studio isn't making that push, you really think they'll care? Aside from the roles that they can't ignore, you don't get one without a studio backing petitioning for you. Now, in general, you can't refuse to play the Hollywood industry game but expect Hollywood accolades. It just doesn't work that way. Not in Hollywood or any industry. You have to petition for the nod.

I stand by what I said that black actors need to go out for movie outside of their box. Like Michael B is doing, so his time will come. I don't think he did anything superior in Creed though. The ONLY reason that Sly is nominated is a legacy award for giving us Rocky. Best Original Screenplay for Straight Outta Compton is pretty good. I don't think it was Best Picture worthy, then again a lot of the films don't be. And I think they only Oscar-quality performance was Kevin Mitchell as Eazy, but the film failed in taking him out of the movie for the 2nd half when it shifted to Cube & Dre. I hope it does win, but up against the Coen Bros is tough.

Honestly, I have no idea why Mad Max was nominated, so I will guess probably so that they could ignore Hateful 8. They Academy really doesn't like Q, so any chance they can ignore him, they do.

But stop going out for race-related movies only. Just go out for any role, like Will, Samuel L, Morgan Freeman, Denzel, now Michael B Jordan...there's plenty of talent that you can get those roles other than bio-pics, comedies and hood flicks. I want to see a black actor go up for Brilliance, especially given the premise and everything going on today. Will was attached but backed out, Jared Leto followed suit and backed out. It's up for grabs, potential to be an Oscar winner and blockbuster. Idris, go up for it, Ealy go out for it,.
