Danny Devito On The Oscars Controversy "We're A Bunch Of Racists"

[Lo-Co]

I kind of groan every time ppl want to mention idris elba, a Netflix movie won't even get a "world movie" nod this is the Oscars not the golden globes or Emmys. Why would they assume he'd be in the running for best actor for a Netflix movie? Let's start the conversation and be outraged by the sly snubs but we can't speak uninformed

The movie HAD a limited theater release thus qualifying it for the Oscars tho...

So Danny Devito and George Clooney are playing the Mackelmore and Ryan Lewis roles for Cac cinema celebrities...

Idris Elba is in England making his money as the Lead in Luther so I'm sure he's not to bothered about the Oscars lol.

At the end of the day not enough black movies are being made and the only ones that get nominated are about slaves. We should also stop putting so much importance on the Oscars and focus role equality or creating our own Hollywood

They're pandering. None of these Cacs give one iota of a true fukk. It's good press to jump on the bandwagon NOW that it looks like black celebrities within the industry are serious about calling out the bullshyt.

Devito has nothing to gain though, and the angle he's coming from is more an indictment on white america. Like "you know that ole BS that we aren't racist because the president is black, well fuk that we are a bunch of racists"

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

I'm sorry but the outrage needs to be directed toward black actors and actresses not being given these "Oscar" worthy roles in the first place. Stop fukking doing these biopics and black struggle films and feeling entitled to a nomination. All of them aren't award worthy anyway. You can't simply demand more representation at the awards without demanding it in films.

By crying "the oscar is racist" you show that you have an inferiority complex...
