A couple weeks ago I wrote about all the Hollywood award shows and why they need 18 such shows to feel important. Over the past few weeks, they have rolled out Globe, Grammy, Tony, Emmy and last night was the Oscars.

Today, all the mainstream news outlets spent much of the news hour covering the Oscars, who won what and who was wearing what and then the thing that really tells you how out of touch Hollywood is, the Red-Carpet Walk. See, the Red-Carpet Walk is made for the actors to feel important, and desired and idolized. Having the people oohing and awing with flash bulbs going off is their way of feeling validated in life. Its not enough to just make a movie and ear a bunch of money, they need the respect that they feel the Red-Carpet Walk give them.

These award shows are without question, the most narcissistic productions available for American viewing pleasure. These actors will spend 10’s of thousands having dresses made to compete on the Red Carpet Walk and then prem, strut and style down the runway.

Lastly and then I will hush up. In all these award ceremonies, the movie that has the highest box office sales very rarely ever wins a prize. Case in point, last night’s Oscars. It is usually some b-budget, off market, movie that checks the social boxes of the judges. In all sports, the team or player that has the best score wins the game. Its simple, pure, and transparent. Why can’t the most popular movie (highest box office sales) win the award? Well, there you have it. My opinion of the “who cares” movement. Ha. I still say, give me a good Denzel Washington, Jason Statham, Matt Damon or Tom Cruise thriller, and we are good to go. KT
