The Oscar's always are a political wankfest awarding performances that are pro-gay, anti-racism, portraying the holocaust or other progressive stuff. I mean CRASH won an Oscar. That's the only senrence you need to understand the academy.

Ah yes, that was the one and only year I actually watched the whole Oscars (couldn't get out of a workmate's Oscar party).

That was also the year that Best Original Song was won by "It's Hard Out There For a Pimp".

Sounds like a liberal circlejerk.

I'm sick of Steve Jobs movies already. Not going to stick around for the obligatory Pixar biopic.

Oh, but they're all about boring white men. Nobody cares about white men, they're all terrible. /s

Is the Brian Wilson movie up for a nod? I've been reading in pubs all over the place that Paul Dano who played 20-something Brian would be competing with my beloved long-overlooked John Cusack, who played drugged-out 40-something Brian.

Or are both going to get a snub along with the movie because it's another movie about a white musician played by white guys... and because Cusack said that when it comes to the NSA surveillance, Obama is worse than Bush. #BlacklistedPointBlank

...And yet people are still pissed off that movies don't have more transgendered people, lesbians and to a much lesser-extent, pedophiles. You know what? When your group only makes up 11% of the population, you're lucky if you get that much representation in the media. Acting as if every other person is transgendered just because it'll get you more likes on Tumblr doesn't make it so, and for the 89% of people who aren't LGBTOBBQWTF, it gets just a little bit annoying to hear the incessant whining.

A lot of studies suggest that the amount of the population that is LGBT is around 3-4%. Much less then the 11% you are claiming.

According to this title... I dunno... I think that they should be rehabilitated, rather than punished, but to a certain extent, Louis C. K. was right in that maybe fewer kids would be killed by pedophiles who don't want to get caught.

Bo-ring. Just goes to show how many directors, screenwriters, etc. are hopping on the bandwagon to grasp at the straws of positive recognition in the LGBT community. They're not trying to be groundbreaking. They're trying to win the popularity contest of a very vocal minority: internet feminists.

You can really tell by how long effort the story lines are. Very few stories about LGBT relationships are complicated and the main antagonist is always the world around them being homophobic. I would love a good LGBT movie where the characters are more then just their sexuality, the plot is morally gray, and the main antagonist is not a homophobic environment.
