Current Events > Bill Maher SHOT HARD on the Oscar tonight

(+) Yeah! (+)

We all had a rough year, a little escapism would have been appreciated, he said. What happened to show business? Did they all decide to quit cocaine at the same time? Did they forget that Hollywood is still the number one place to go if youre an egomaniac looking to fill that hole from your childhood with applause?

Academy nominations used to say, What great movies we make. Now they say, Look what good people we are, he added.

So its no wonder Godzilla Vs. Kong killed it at the box office, he said. Not Godzilla Vs. Kong And His Crippling Battle With Depression.

Not that I want to see Godzilla Vs. Kong either. Hollywood used to know how to make a movie that was about something, a movie for adults that was also entertaining and not just depressing. There was already a category for that, Best Documentary, important films about the war in Syria or the plight of the hot dog stand owners.

yeah I said Oscar

Shut the fuck up.

I... dont really understand what hes saying about GvK. It seems like hes saying It isnt surprising GvK did great, because its a good movie that people wanna see instead of some weird depressing movie. But fuck GvK, I aint seeing it!

You don't have to be a fan of a certain piece of media to understand why a ton of other people really liked it more than other stuff that's bland by comparison.

That's what he said.

I thought the oscars were in february. Anyway, fuck the oscars. Its worthless these days.

---

Are these actual quotes from him cuz I can hear it in his stupid ass voice lol
---

Lots of good movies are still being made. Popcorn movies have always existed. Just because Transformers exists doesn't mean that The Departed didn't come out.

---

I don't get the controversy on Godzilla vs King Kong.

Why do some critics practically want it cancelled? What was the trigger?
If it was a movie lots of people enjoyed watching, it was a good movie to those consumers who have a right to vote with their wallets...

The professional critics can eat shit. It's what's really best for everyone.
