The Academy likes to reward schlocky, feel-good, "little guy triumphing over adversity" movies, and also The Hurt Locker?

I enjoyed it more than most recent Best Picture winners. I'd put it above Spotlight, Argo, The Artist, The King's Speech, The Hurt Locker, and Slumdog Millionaire.
I'm starting a petition calling for everyone who participated in this thread to lose their jobs. Shame on you all, picking on poor, defenseless, 33-year old Eric Trump. He's just a boy!
There is a world of difference between a comedian, using her own public name and twitter account, to make an edgy and perhaps offensive joke about a child in the public eye, and random internet comments hurling racial slurs at and wishing AIDS upon a teenage girl.
Is one of them Bruce Willis?
If SNL fires her over this they're out of their fucking minds. Consider the source of the criticism. I tweeted in defense of Katie Rich and received a reply from some Trump troll with 13 followers telling me how awful she was for attacking a kid. When I directed them towards some non-comedians, Fox News comments…
This comment is a trainwreck.
She's not a politician though, she's a comedian. The only reason people are upset about this is because of the SNL-affiliation. If it had been Anthony Jeselnik who tweeted this nobody would give a shit.
Clearly you've never had sex with my wife!
Alex Jones just came.
No. There really isn't a twist in the way you're thinking. I would disregard any notion of that entirely.
There really is no twist, not in the way you're thinking at least.
And someone to help him write dialogue…his characters have always been incredibly unrealistic sounding, and not in the good way that some filmmakers can pull off, like the Coen brothers. In a laughably bad, "nobody talks like this" kind of way.
The latter. More syllables is always funnier.
Keep trying, you'll figure it out.
It's a little more than hidden Mickeys. It's not a huge leap to see the the alarming amount of pollution and garbage in the ocean in Finding Dory and connect it to the future posited by WALL-E.
This is what every network should be doing, honestly. I know things are complicated regarding broadcast rights vs. streaming rights, so we're stuck with this antiquated system, but there's no reason for scripted content to be necessarily broadcast first anymore. The only reason live television needs to exist anymore…
Yes, I remember the story. I wasn't sure then and I'm still not sure now why a comedian tweeting a handful of objectionable things 5 or 6 years ago makes him "problematic as fuck." Watch one of the guy's specials. He's hardly Andrew Dice Clay.
Why?
I highly recommend you check out The Station Agent.
