One of the worst, low budget Oscars in recent memory took place and not many cared to watch it. Don't believe us? check out the ratings report or this ratings report or this ratings report.
But those of us who did watch, did so hoping to see the late Chadwick Boseman win for (it doesn't matter) He deserved a post humorous award just as the late Heath Ledger did for The Dark Knight. But instead, Boseman did not win and Daniel Kaluya, who was the star of his own movie, Judas and the Black Messiah, won for best supporting actor......what?????
Wikipedia defines a supporting actor as...
A supporting actor is an actor who performs a role in a play or film below that of the leading actor(s), and above that of a bit part. In recognition of important nature of this work, the theater and film industries give separate awards to the best supporting actors and actresses.
See where we have highlighted, below that of the leading actor. Daniel Kaluya was the leading actor, but he got a supporting award. I guess they are smarter than we are, because that makes zero sense.
Kaluya was the star of his movie, so how does he get nominated as a supporting actor along with his supporting actor LaKeith Stanfield? So are they telling us that Judas and the Black Messiah starred 2 supporting actors?
That's like saying Jack Bauer was nominated for an Emmy for best supporting actor for 24 or Kim Kardashian was nominated for best supporting actress in Keeping Up With The Kardashians or Denzel for best supporting actor for Malcolm X.
NONESENSE!
Oscars have become irrelevant, political, out of touch and tone deaf. The people have spoken.
