The Lily-White Oscars

No movie to talk about tonight; instead it's the Academy Award nominations that were announced this morning and boy are people mad at how the main nominees are all white, all except Selma are about white people, the African-American lady director for Selma not getting nominated, and otherwise it looks even worse than usual for the typically white old male American film industry when there were worthy candidates that didn't get the nod. I understand why people are mad, for sure. 

I'll still be seeing four of the eight Best Picture nominees in a marathon via AMC Theatres. Also, sooner rather than later I will watch Gone Girl on disc, as that could be on the Top 10 list.

I'll return tomorrow night and this time it will be a movie review.
