NON-WHITES WIN, GAYS DON'T

By Admin | March 5, 2006

Ang Lee is the first non-white filmmaker to win the Best Director Oscar.

“Crash” as Best Picture?  Well, I guess Hollywood was afraid of a red state backlash if “Brokeback Mountain” won.  Go figure.

    Funny how people felt comfortable voting for a nasty racist-based movie. Hollywood is ridiculously homophobic still–but don’t look too close at the partners of those executives. They’re the same sex!!! Bunch of hypocrits….

    What red state backlash would that be? Would we have had to boycott the Oscars next year? Stop watching movies altogether? I didn’t get that memo; Bubba must not have forwarded it yet.

    Since when has Hollywood given a s**t about what anyone outside their own little bubble cares about. There wouldn’t have been rioting in the streets if a “gay” movie had won. Just like Crash, nobody would’ve given a s**t ten minutes after the ceremony ended.
