HexMachina Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Thanks for the results Risto (for your amusement, Autocorrect wanted to make that Aristotle ) On the whole race/diversity/#osvarssowhite, apparently there were protestors at the BAFTAs too. I haven't been able to find much about it though, most articles are from rags like the daily mail and I'm not one to give their site traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterfell is Burning Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Well, at least they nominated Elba... Although Denzel Washington has a grand total of zero BAFTA nominations. Yes, even for Malcolm X and for the movies he won the Oscar. Anyway, the BAFTA was an award that did have some interesting results in the past until they too begun to become shameless Oscar predictors like everyone else.

But, honestly, I just wish BAFTA was like in old days, awarding people and not caring who will take home Oscars. 4 hours ago, Corvinus said: At least Mad Max got some well deserved awards.

Winterfell is Burning Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I disagree about the costume award being undeserved, good to see that for once the award didn't go to the prettiest costumes only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordinarily, I would agree, but there is nothing special about Mad Max costumes. They are not even inventive or special in any sort of way. On the other hand, that Cinderella dress got the life of her own and Carol's costumes were sublime in its intellectual approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good problem to have, while I find the focus on certain aspects frustrating I don't weep for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good problem to have, while I find the focus on certain aspects frustrating I don't weep for them. But here is the thing. On March 1st, we will all forget about this. And then entire will pass and perhaps we will have once again all-white lineup. And then Internet will again moan. The problem is that the problem has been treated as Academy's issue, and while Academy does share its part of guilt, the problem starts months and years before the respected movie comes to the point when Academy makes decisions. That is why I hated SAGs so much this year. Their "diverse profile" was as phony as it can be. And poor Idris Elba whose victories remain tainted of being SAGs diversity beacon. He is a great actor and he deserves so much better. Simply, awarding or nominating one or two actor from minorities doesn't solve the problem. But, yeah, as Gervais said on Globes regarding Lawrence's essay... Let us not rally and weep for those who earn millions of dollars in a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is that regardless of how well deserved or not they may be, that they were given during a time of big controversy over representation in film etc. there is always going to be that taint of; well, did he get them to appease the crowds? I mean, you may not think that (having not seen the films in question it would be presumptuous if I were to say the same) but there are going to be people who do. It's like, I dunno, say you are the sports teachers child,band you tryout for the school team. You get onto he team, which is selected by your mother/father. There are going to be people who say it wasn't based on merit. Same principle here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, even before the SAGs, there were a lot of talks that Elba might be victorious given the current climate in the industry. Getting two SAGs in one night is the first, not for Elba, but I think for any other actor. Thing is that Elba most likely deserved the nomination and the win, but in a climate like this, those two wins, with OITNB cast speaking about "true America" it was a bit like someone was trying to prove really hard they are not as "racist bigots" as Academy members. Obviously, SAG-Aftra members wanted to push the message and they did. One way or another. Once again, this speaks nothing about whether Elba deserved it or his talent. 24 minutes ago, HelenaExMachina said: I think the problem is that regardless of how well deserved or not they may be, that they were given during a time of big controversy over representation in film etc. there is always going to be that taint of; well, did he get them to appease the crowds?

And this is not about Elba, but the entire awarding bodies who are using this to send a message. Every newspapers in the country spoke about racially diverse SAG awards and given some rumors in weeks before SAGs and the entire climate, it doesn't have much insight to see how some members gravitate. Basically, message was sent into the air and now it is what it is. In a way, I hate how phony this entire dialogue is. One hashtag and that is it? There are no fundamental changes in approach, Internet moans while those statues are being given and then two days after it, we are oblivious of the problem. And until the studios are being pushed into understanding that people of color don't necessarily have to be from gheto (African-American), ninjas (Asians) or terrorists (Middle-East nations), we will continue to have this problem. We need movies with POC playing the characters whose dramas, lives and issues are not narrowly connected with their skin color. In short, less slavery and rap.

Perhaps with MNS the lower the budget the better the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
