I was under the impression Selma was not a good film.  Anybody seen it want to comment?  Should it have swept everything?

It hasn't come out in Spain yet. Will probably check it out when it does to see if all the fuss is warranted or not.

Why do spaniards hate Israel so much?

It cannot be love of muslims. You guys do have an immigration problem with moroccans, don't you?
And didn't you fight an 800 years war to free yourself from the muslims?
So it must be anti-semitism.

LOL I just saw that this was posted in earnest as "omg horrible racism" on Paradox OT.

Where do you think I found it?  But it was not posted seriously there either.

That famously retarded Communist wasn't serious? Broken clock I guess.

You still go to Paradox, you shameless traitor, after all they did to you?

I think that was the real source of Sean Penn's lame joke.  But what do I know?  Anyway if they feel so embarrassed about it they have an easy solution.

But that would mean confronting the shocking lack of diversity within cultural institutions. It's far easier to ignore it and assuage your conscience by supporting the right side politically

It's easier still to ignore it and laugh till you pee at bleating from the Guardian.

Nothing shocking about Hollywood playing it safe.  That is what they do.  Cannot wait for Spiderman 17.

Marty hijacks his own threads quite a bit. Though perhaps in his mind Oscars and bullying gay schoolkids both fall under "gay issues" and this isn't a hijack at all? 

Err, I didn't hijack the thread.

Maybe blacks are just bad at movies. They are good at sports - they can't be good at everything, right?
