“At their respective peaks, they could’ve been a match made in heaven.”

Emma Stone it is then!

That is a dream scenario, because UEFA changed the rules and it can’t happen anymore. If the CL winner finishes outside the CL slots in the league the league gets an extra spot. If Chelsea win it fourth place still gets CL.

Yeah I looked up the asian Oscar nominee wikipedia page and starred at her name for several seconds wondering if she was who I thought she was. If she counts then Johnny Depp counts as native for Lone Ranger and uh no, no, no.

Okay well you said there weren’t contenders for the last twenty years and I was pointing out there have been some nominees in the last twenty years. Which are contenders.

Yes! And even more so for A Most Violent Year previously.

Apparently Hallie Stanfield is part Filipino so that’s another one I guess. Wouldn’t have pegged her as Asian in True Grit but sure.

You’re right about other PoC not being brought up for sure. Though I will say Asians have had SOME representation this century at least. Ben Kingsley got nominated twice in the 2000s for Sexy Beast and House of Sand and Fog, his wife in House of Sand and Fog got nominated as well. Ken Watanabe got nominated for Last…

I mean I get the focus on the actors. They’re the celebrities. They’re the pretty famous ones. But for those who are claiming to be concerned about the artistic side of things and movie making the fact that we are in a Golden age of Latino filmmaking goes completely ignored. And that’s even with Guilermo del Toro…

Malcolm Lee, the director behind Undercover Brother and the Best Man series did exactly this. Created his own production company (Blackmaled Productions) to make Best Man Holiday. The movie had almost entirely black actors and made 70 million dollars “out of nowhere.”

California is incredibly diverse. In large part thanks to Latino/a residents. The kind who have absolutely been dominating the directing and cinematography categories the last three years and never ever ever get brought up in the discussion because I guess Mexicans and Chileans are white in the racist academy’s eyes?
