    The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, to give it its full name, has announced that movies hoping to compete in the Best Picture category will, from 2024, have to conform to certain ‘criteria’. They will need to be sufficiently ‘diverse’ before the Academy will consider them. This is properly shocking. It smacks of identitarian McCarthyism. The Academy says that only movies that include a desirable number of people from various ethnic and social groups will be considered for the film of the year award. The ‘diverse’ groups that must be included are women, people of colour, LGBTQ people and people with disabilities.

    This is a powerful showbusiness body using its mighty clout to pressure artists into depicting the ‘right’ kind of people and telling the ‘right’ kind of story. It’s a kind of woke tyranny.

    If your movie doesn't have negroes, pooves, trannies or flids represented by the screenwriter, the film crew or the cast you can kiss your Oscar goodbye. As of 2024 you stand little chance of winning the gold statue if you are a straight and able honky. Even if you knock your performance out of the park I expect the Woke brigade to belittle your efforts if someone fitting the criteria isn't also recognised and honoured.

    "You only got that award on the back of all the minority groups who did all the hard work"

    Imagine what the re-makes will be like;

    Romeo and Juliet - must both be lesbians or let John Boyega f.uck the white burd
    The Greatest Story Ever Told - Samuel L Jackson as Black Jesus
    Lassie Come Home - Black Labrador
    The Great White Hope - Transgender Inuit boxer
    King Kong - the great ape rolls around New York in a wheelchair

    I wonder if Leonardo Di Caprio or Meryl Streep will be standing on the stage demanding a fair go for whitey in a few years? Should give Ricky Gervais the host job, he'd have a field day.

    A film about the Irish Famine for example would need to have darkies ****s and mongs to be considered for an Oscar? They would need to stop making historical films.

    Does it mean a film about Africa has to be filled with white folk?

    If you want an Oscars, a film about London stabbings or looting in the US is nailed on for a ltitle gold fella.

    Hmm I realise 'Oscar' brings in no legged murderer's but shouldn't it be a one legged black woman?

    Porn is probably the most diverse medium there has ever been. Every race, creed, even animal, gets a fair crack in porn movies. #octoporn

    I like stuff, but I'm not so sure about the aliens. I reckon they'd want to look after the creatures that really run the planet.

    Not interested in award ceremonies, if you made a great film: that’s what will live on.
