And the Oscar Goes to?

It is almost time for the once again disappointing Oscars, when the Hollywood elite, consisting of Vinny and the rest of the Masonic Mob, cast their votes to award the best performances in motion pictures. However, there are some bones to pick about the Oscars and the motion pictures they nominate. As we know the most coveted golden boys are separated in a few categories, Best Picture, Best Actor/Actress, Best Supporting Actor/Actress, and Best Director. What continues to baffle my hopeless mind is why every year, the Oscar nominations are dominated by tiresome, boring, hold your drooping eyes open with a toothpick movies that were box office bombshells that nobody has seen. One could mention that the reason why this trivia is easily solved is that it takes high minded intelligence to patiently sit through these yawners, but the fact to the matter is, dude, it's boring!

George Clooney, star of Ocean's Eleven and, well Ocean's Eleven, is probably going to be nominated once again for an Oscar for his performance in Up in the Air, as he was nominated for a Golden Globe for best actor. Upon hearing this abomination of desolation, I could hardly calm my rapid heart as my mind continued to repeat, "Say it isn't so." But sadly, it is. The reason for my disagreement is when is George Clooney NOT George Clooney in his films? In almost every film I have tortured myself seeing, in which George Clooney was the leading man, he was Danny Ocean, a smart-ass, coincided man filled with nothing but one liners and dull humor. Lets see: Batman-Danny Ocean as Bruce Wayne, Syriana-Danny Ocean in the Middle East, From Dusk Till Dawn-Danny Ocean vs. Vampires, etc.

Another vulgar display of power the academy has shown to the American public is nominating Juno for Best Picture, Best Actress, (Ellen Page) and actually having the audacity to award the film with Best Original Screen Play (Diablo Cody) As I watched this picture with high expectations, I was soundly disappointed as I realized that many brainwashed, hardworking American labors, worked several long and stressful hours to purchase a single movie ticket and saw what they could see in any suburban town that has at least 1000 smart ass teenagers. I guess this was the suits way of attempting to get a much needed ratings boost by attracting other smart ass teenagers to watch their programming. Hears a word to the wise, if you want to get more ratings, then stop nominating movies that bomb at the box office! Stop awarding boring movies, that when you watch them, you yawn so forcefully that water creeps out of your straining eyes!

The Uncompromisable Truth is that the Vinny-committee nominates these atomic bombs in order to re-release boredom in our local theaters, so Mr. and Mrs. "Believe what you hear on TV" run out to spend their money on what they think will be wonderful entertainment, and eventually becomes a weapon of mass destruction. The final answer is money, money and more money. It's a way for the fat cats to get fatter as they release trash to the public, making them believe its better than Thanksgiving Dinner, and stuffing their already filled pockets with more pieces of green paper with dead people on it!

And that, my friends, is The Uncompromisable Truth.

  1. well my dear friend I'm afraid to say that yes you're right that some actors and some actresses don't have the same taste as viewers like us. As a good example. My wife and I were watching Harry Potter, and she was suspecting to rent the movie for quite a while. Finally we got it and we were terribly disappointed and for Some reason i am not looking forward to the last movie if you know what I'm talking about.
    Anyway I hope you are in good health, and I wish you and happy new year full of blessings for you and your family.
    sincerely yours Armando
