The Same Old Academy Awards

Image via Wikipedia The Academy Awards has a big night with several recipients getting awards. Many great producers, Actorsm and Directors walk away the the coveted prize of an Oscar. The awards seem to carry the same old who's who among the Hollywood elite. Host James Franco and Anne Hatheway tried to bring some zeal to the stage but it really wasn't enough to turn the crowd on its head. Past winners Like Halle Berry and Denzel Washington were in attendance to show their support for this years nominees. The Academy Awards should do like the grammies and bring in some musicians and other forms of entertainment to spice the place up a little. The awards show is growing old in style, because it has been doing the same old thing year after year.

Boiling Point - The Oscars are Still Old and Boring Film School ...

Entertainment Weekly just that damn good at predicting stuff? No, no, and nope. The Oscars are just that predictable. And boring. And old. Some movies are just “Oscar movies” and that's bullshit. Why should the Academy members always reward the same types of movies? The Academy Awards are supposed to reward the best of the year – not necessarily the best drama or the best sad movie or the best anything specific. They're supposed to reward the best movies, period. ...

Detroit 1-8-7

Image via Wikipedia A new TV show on ABC about the city Detroit has being airing for about four months now. Detroit 187 seems to be a great TV drama about the city life of Detroit along with the crime that comes with it. I like the cast and the story line that Detroit 1-8-7 brings to TV drama. This show reminds me of Hill Street Blues which was set in New York city. Detroit 187 in my opinion will be around for a long time if they can continue to keep coming with great story lines.
