Will always be an overrated from dusk till dawn rip off, one time watch and thank God I was stoned.

But the 1st 20 minutes of this was a good breakdown
Depending on the Oscars is like depending on the local crackhead to give you your ten dollars back you let him borrow, it's a wash and so is the Oscars. My Oscars and my reward was watching the movie as for Black Excellence and the Oscars, they don't have a good track record of truly awarding Black Excellence....they are a racially finnicky bunch.Will The Oscars do to Ryan Coogler what they did to Al Pacino for Godfather Part 2 in 1975?
I'm wondering about the Oscar buzz, no the Oscars. The movie Sinners was the best movie that grew the biggest buzz all year, hands down. Tons of content creators got their YouTube Page is blown up as they investigated and deliciously picked apart all about the movie, from the Easter eggs we saw and the things we didn't see and the things we missed.
However, Hollywood loves them some Paul Thomas Anderson, even though to me his films are a wacky fever dream or boring AF. There will be blood was boring as fuck. Boogie Nights was... meh
BUT, He is the Susan Lucci of the Oscars, he's been nominated for 11 Oscars and hasn't won, AND He's 55 years old. Why the age comes into play, Ryan Coogler by comparison, is 39.
The Oscars are known for giving a lesser deserving person who's older in potentially their last shot at getting an Oscar, see Art Carney in 1975, over the younger and deserving candidate who will likely have more possibilities due to their young age.
I can't speak to anyone who's seen Art Carney in Harry and Tonto, but everyone has seen the Godfather Part 2, and Al Pacino's performance in that movie was deserving of an Oscar that he didn't get because the academy was giving what equates to a lifetime achievement Oscar to Art Carney over him because he was a beloved actor
The academy ended up having to have Al Pacino do to Denzel Washington what Art Carney did to him - Give a lifetime achievement Oscar to a much older actor when the younger actor is more deserving.
They are undoubtedly going to nominate both Paul Thomas Anderson and Ryan Coogler for best picture, and I'm wondering if the Oscars are going to pull an Art Carney on Ryan Coogler because Anderson is a beloved director/writer.
I see it coming, and the controversy that undoubtedly will follow but in this country's recent desire to be anti-DEI, which is basically anti black at the behest of the President of the United States, I don't know if the academy is going to be bold enough to give it to the most deserving candidate which is Ryan Coogler, hell for the Holy Trinity of best picture, best director director and best original screenplay.
We will find out next March or April but considering this nation's history I don't have much hope that they'll get it right

I'm saying that every time anybody black gets anything they (racist White people) say DEI.This entire paragraph is some BS. This is the entire reason for affirmative action and DEI in the first place. You are saying that blacks aren't good enough so they must be getting handouts or they are getting winning because they are black. GTOH!! (not you, GOW)
Got it...thanks. You are 100% correct. One Battle After Another is good, but its not as good as Sinners.I'm saying that every time anybody black gets anything they (racist White people) say DEI.
A Black person found $10 on the ground. They say DEI.
A Black person is named the director of contracting. They say DEI.
See what I mean? It's bullshit.
Black People were Always good enough. We learned without being taught. We learned when it was illegal to even teach us. We are the forest that grew from concrete, not the rose.
I'm sorry my message left room for improper interpretation. The point I was trying to make is will The academy be bold enough to give it to the man who deserves it, Ryan Coogler, a black man, and ignore the fodder that is sure to come from racist White people claiming he only got it because of DEI.
Both films and filmmakers achieved unprecedented excellence.Got it...thanks. You are 100% correct. One Battle After Another is good, but it’s not as good as Sinners.
coon-tep-ish, perhaps lol?I just came here to post this. Your first sentence is very interesting because I've never gotten that from him. Not sure if you follow his B sides channel but he defended Joe Budden from the Native Land Pod, even as an intellectual
No not a hotep...he doesn't believe in black buying power (he is a disciple of Dr. Jared Ball). I'm going to do more research on Dr. Ball to find out why they believe this.coon-tep-ish, perhaps lol?
But truly, pandering and coonery aren’t always the same thing.
And from the little I have seen of dude - he is eager for attention. That shit will at some point be a turnoff for anyone - regardless of how much value one otherwise brings. (No one wants their P-Funk stepped on, after all)
I think he sees himself - self proclaimed - as a particular kind of hotep, right?
