Rant

You know what grinds me gears? Award season. Why do actors feel the need to spend almost two months (or that’s what it feels like) on award ceremonies? Because being in movies, getting a lot of money and being in the spot light isn’t enough attention? Really? Is that it? Or do they actually want to be awarded for their art? Because I understand acting is an art, however, half of the actors in do not posses that. I believe that Broadway acting is much more of an art form. But getting back to rant, why do they feel the need to spend thousands of dollars on stupid award shows?! It drives me nuts. The only reason I’d sit through an hour of this mind numbing crap is to see what they wear, and that’s purely a fashion thing, I could give a shit about who wins best hair or best score. The only moderately thing appearing to me is the fashion.

  1. thousands of dollars? more like hundreds of thousands. makes me want to hurl. maybe spending so much time and money public patting themselves on the back makes them feel better as human beings. me, I'm satisfied that my dog is happy when I come home - why indulge in such self-celebration and wastefulness? get a life.

    (in other words, I completely agree with you)

  2. I heard this year the award show was one of the lowest watched in years and the trend is going downward. Most of us are a little sick of the hype around awards season and the money made by those who look good on camera. I agree that acting is an art form when done well.
