The Academy Awards: No Longer Exceedingly Retarded?

I hate the Academy Awards. I almost never agree with thier bullshit decisions about what's best in cinema. Witness the following examples that illustrate my point:

Exhibit A: Stanley Kubrick never won an Oscar in his entire career.
Exhibit B: Neither has Ridley Scott. You know, the director of Alien, Blade Runner, Legend, Thelma and Louise, Gladiator, and more. Clearly the man's a hack The year Gladiator was beat out by fucking TRAFFIC (for Best Director) was a deal breaker for me. Give the man who overused used lame blue and yellow tint to symbolise geographical location based on nationality the award over the man who RECREATED ROME. That was it. The Academy Awards and I went our separate ways. We haven't seen each other since.

However, in a spasm of clarity, the dusty old farts at the Academy Awards nominated Guillermo del Toro's brilliant film, Pan's Labyrinth for six awards yesterday: Best Foreign Film, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Original Score and Best Makeup. This means he has a good chance of winning something.

It's about time those jackholes became aware of what I have always known about Guillermo: Man's a genius dweeb. And I love him. Congrats Memo, you deserve it, Chingon!

Yeah, I meant to see it today.

The Academy Awards are complete bullshit. I believe the year that Shawshank Redemption came out, it was not mentioned or nominated for anything and Babe won. I could be wrong, but that's the way I remember it.

Or something like that. I hate that shit anyway. It's not like those fuckers are going to help me out with the rent if I can't pay it. I'm not going to sit there, glued to the tube, hanging on their every decision. Fuck that.

I feel like a loser even talking about it.

But yeah, Pan's Labyrinth I will probably make it to tomorrow.
