Not watching. I am tired of the Oscars lately. Not to mention I have not seen any of the films this past year that are nominated. I love movies, but the awards stuff with Hollywood has lost some steam to me. 

And yeah, I prefer it not be about politics but you know they won't hold back. 

 I will check out who won though when it's over. I still can't believe Johnny Depp did not get nominated a year ago for Black Mass. I mean what the hell? Thats when I lost interest. I often see some film or performance and it gets snubbed. 

I know this year they will probably give most of the awards to "Manchester by the Sea" anyway.

Hey there Jules, 

No worries. I know the Oscars is a long ceremony that usually runs close to 4 hours on average. I don't think Hollywood was ready to embrace a MOB flick this yr, but I agree with you Johnny Depp gave a solid performance in "Black Mass." 

I'm still miffed that "Captain Fantastic" walked away with no golden statues at all. Actor Viggo Mortensen gave a tremendous performance in that flick & he definitely got shafted by the Academy this February IMO. I still think of him as Strider from "The Lord Of The Rings" trilogy, but I digress. 

Nice chatting with you like always.
