Oscars are over, 'out of touch with the audience' and saddled with DEI requirements: expert
Briefly

from New York Post1 week ago
As the 97th Oscars approach, a wave of discontent surrounds this year's nominations, with critics citing an underwhelming selection of films and disinterest among audiences. Many feel that the nominations do not reflect popular tastes, as most of the contenders have been small arthouse productions, with few exceptions like 'Wicked' enjoying box office success. Commentators, including Fox News' Raymond Arroyo, express concerns that the Oscars may have lost their relevance, suggesting a disconnect between the selection process and viewer engagement.
I feel really underwhelmed by this year's nominations, wins at other award shows (such as the Golden Globes) and predicted wins at the Oscars.

So many Oscar voters have told me the Oscars jumped the shark. They feel this is the end of Oscars in some ways.

I think most people haven't seen any of these movies to be excited about them, citing films like 'Emilia Perez' and 'Anora' as contenders.

'Wicked's' really the only movie that's been a box office success that's nominated for best picture.
