Are the 2017 Academy nominees the weakest in their history?

There has to be a "best" whatever, but, if we are honest, none of the nominees for any award in these 90th Academy Awards would win in any other year. Is this decline in quality just an anomaly for 2017 or has the Academy voters become too political and too obsessed with political correctness to recognize genuine filmcraft anymore?

Hollywood making something actually good in an entire year is the exception

Every year there seems to be something that inspires me to get into the film making industry. An adapted screenplay, a brilliant example of directing, a stunning cinematography, an amazing acting performance, something. This year, nothing.

>Academy voters become too political and too obsessed with political correctness to recognize genuine filmcraft anymore
Bingo. The oscars are little more than a vehicle for famous people to spout their political ideals to a wide audience and maybe take a shiny trophy home. Also the fact that good original ideas are rarely seen or appreciated in hollywood anymore.

2016 has to be the absolute lowpoint in Oscar history but this year is almost as bad.

What did they mean by this?

Many oscar voters, movie critics, and a few powerful members of the Academy have become weary of the entertainment industry's 25-year long meme that "blacks are automatically the alltime greatest of any everything there ever was, ever, and you are a racist if you disagree". Believe me when I tell you this, there are a great many good people who are tired of being bullied into a certain way of thinking under threat of being labeled a racist.

I'll tell you this much - There is no chance Get Out wins best picture for the simple fact that Black Lives Matter and other race baiters took advantage of that film to go around and promote anti-white racism at a time when increasingly Oscar voters have become turned off and even offended by the degree of anti-white and anti-jew hatred coming out of the mouths of pro-black support groups and blacks in the entertainment industry. The new cause célèbre among Academy voters is feminism.

cmon guys fill out the card

>black directors have only made a film that has won best picture twice in 90 years
>"anti-white racism, white genocide, etc."

what did stormfront mean by this?

only jews and mel gibson win for directing

>too obsessed with political correctness to recognize genuine filmcraft

In any other environment, Rachel Weisz would not only be nominated for Best Actress but probably win the award for her brilliant performance in My Cousin Rachel. But instead, we have "Muh strong and angry woman" played by Frances McDormand, and "Muh fearless and independent-minded woman" played by Sally Hawkins, and "Muh anti-religion angsty woman" played by Saoirse Ronan, and the meme nominee Meryl Streep.

>live in a society where violence, ignorance, and sexual deviancy is celebrated and heavily promoted
>Hollywood types pat each other on the backs multiple times every year, making millions of dollars making and promoting this schlock
>get all surprised when everybody involved with this trash, from the monsters who rape and create this shit to the idiot consumers who pay money and eat it up every single time, turns out to be a violent, idiotic, sex maniac

Tell me, Buzzfeed, is this pic related?

Yes, because BR2049 is not nominated for Best Picture

the lost any credibility after what happened to the Best Picture award last year

Or best director, or best actor, or best supporting actress. It's a fucking farce

No they lost it when Crash won Best Picture, its been downhill ever since

>t. watched less than 20 movies before 1970
1936, 1942, 1958, 1963, 1970, 1983, 1988, 1995 2009, were all worse

Are they going to make it to 100, bros?

get out for best picture - fuck drumpf and fuck white people

I feel like every year people said the same thing

>best director
The only top nomination that BR2049 should get, considering film school project directors like Peel and Greta are nominated

>black directors have only made a film that has won best picture twice in 90 years
>excuse is "racists can't see how great blacks are"

Black directors just aren't as good as their non-black competition. Racism has nothing to do with it, unless of course you want to "affirmative action" an award to blacks which is essentially awarding the award based on nothing more than the color of their skin, which would be racist by definition.

Also, see

You mean message movies, movies that directly address social concern (lack of layers), movies explicitly tuned for middlebrow sensibilities (i.e. Precious, 12 Years a Slave, Selma, Moonlight, etc.)
