Because the Academy is racist, but we already knew that.

Because its not diverse enough. It would be nominated if all the actors were black.

it was too good. same reason Shin Gojira didn't get any

Because Hollywood doesn't like Asians.
>not a single Asian film nominated for best foreign language ever

>Gook movie
Who cares?

Not enough white men.

The KOFIC didn't submit it to be voted on. It wasn't ever even in the running.

oh I hate KOFIC now

Did they ever release a reason why? I thought that decision was strange.

someone post the webm

Not white, black, Muslim, too gook, and too good. I understand now.

Did anyone else have an issue with the editing in this movie? Especially towards the beginning and end, both the small-scale cuts and broader pacing were really bizarre and distracting

Is this a re-cut version for Americans? My gf and I both thought the most likely explanation was that they made strange changes to appeal to the west

Other than that, generally fantastic movie I really enjoyed.

I think they submitted a more nationalistic film that was also good. Also seems they have a bone to pick with the director.

They submitted the age of shadows instead

Doesn't look nearly as good

And yet they give zero fucks. They have their own industry, awards and concerns.

Its strange that Blacks have their own pat-on-the-back award ceremonies and industries yet still want white Western approval and recognition. Why not make their own film industry?

Africans don't have enough money to see it

I haven't seen it yet but Koreans love anti Japanese war and spy movies so I'm not surprised. There's been a huge surge of them recently with the whole senkaku islands dispute and the protests over the comfort women being paid off.

Ie. the tiger, assassin, the admiral, the age of shadows etc

Africans and South Americans don't care about white Americans being the lead in movies though, black Americans and white virtue signalling Americans do.

But thats what I'm saying, its the Black Westerners kicking off, invariably the richest of their race, and yet instead of making and managing their own artistic world beyond music they'd rather moan that moaning isnt working fast enough.

Appropriate funding would literally give them their own artistic and legit freedom

Libshits hate Asians because their existence doesn't help to push their narratives. If they had it their way, they'd likely just erase them from existence.

The ones that actually care about cinema do though (the moonlight guys, Steve McQueen, John singleton, Noel clarke, Ryan coogler etc) all this outrage over the oscars being so white is fake. It's rabble rousing dude. Black people aren't monolithic just as white, Asian or Latino people aren't. Social media has created a huge class division because the loudest idiots have all been given a platform and the media has decided to run with it.

Favorite film of the year.

>not a single Asian film nominated for best foreign language ever
>Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
>The film was nominated for 10 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and won Best Foreign Language Film

Do you victim complex chinks never bother to do even a little research?

Crouching Tiger was 20 years ago...

17 years ago, but what does that have to do with anything? Focus on the conversation chinkypoo

Instead of whining about liberals you have to realize that it's the god damn country that has to send the film nomination, and the director of that movie in particular was BLACKLISTED by the government

Most Kurosawa movies have been nominated, Departures won the oscar in 2008

You understand that is literally Korean Porn.

Porn in Korea is outlawed, that is why there are these pink films, and Kpop, which is essentially sex on stage.

No matter how good it is, straight up porn will never win an academy award.

They can only handle one gay movie at a time

Watched it and thought it was really boring. Can't be the only one.
