Oscars 2016: Black actors snubbed, #OscarsSoWhite picks up again

You’re telling me no Mexicans are qualified to do anything at a studio? This happened despite there being only eight nominees this year, a number under the maximum of 10.

With all of that considered, produce, and actor Ice Cube responded to the trend and the snub his movie received. But it still only got one Oscar nomination in a screenwriter category.

The hashtag clocked 76,644 mentions on Twitter alone yesterday, with the majority of the conversation online revolving around Idris Elba’s Netflix Original flick Beasts Of No Nation. He was, as he is in everything he does, outstanding.

Jordan were ignored for highly praised performances in “Creed”. That might explain the lack of nominations.

Watching Chris Rock host a broadcast where his brothers and sisters are being so willfully disregarded may be more than I can handle this year. Of all of those, I feel that Matt Damon, who was nominated for “The Martian”, could have been replaced by Smith. He does pull off the accent well, but the movie wasn’t that compelling and nobody saw it. Straight Outta Compton, which was recently named the highest-grossing music biopic, featured a strong cast of Black actors. When you get baked, what do you crave? But diversity starts behind the camera – with the people who are writing, directing, and producing the movies in the first place.

In advance of the DVD/Blu-ray release of “Straight Outta Compton” on Tuesday, Jackson talked to The Canadian Press about his reaction to the Oscar snubs and his personal goal of one day writing his own award-winning film.

According to Robertson, the DNA of AAFCA’s critic’s awards can be traced back to the so-called “Black Oscars”, an underground awards show held by performers of color starting in the 1970s (a decade where no African-American won an Oscar) to honor actors who were routinely being overlooked by the Academy Awards. What about Middle-Eastern actors?

The Rev. Al Sharpton sharply criticized the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Friday for the lack of diversity among this year’s Oscar nominees, and the Los Angeles chapter of his National Action Network is calling for a boycott of the upcoming awards show. For a full list of the nominations, here’s a link to them. Well, he’s been arrested numerous times for punching women.

Some 75 percent of movie roles go to white actors. What about the fact that Eazy-E had six children from five different women, while being married.

“No, they understand it’s all show business and it’s meant to be comedy”. Even though I’m definitely disappointed that The Academy voters did not see it so, I take great solace in knowing that that’s not why you made the movie. You can’t have much more range than that! He did, however, see a push for eventual nominee Sylvester Stallone, who co-stars in the film. I would’ve bet anything he’d get a nomination. Now I’m bit by the acting bug, but I still love to write, so there’s no reason for me not to continue with that talent.

Regarding the Jewish element, I would personally prefer a Hollywood run by Jews such as Michael Medved and Dennis Prager than I would one run by Catholics such as the Cuomos, Pelosis, or Kennedys.
