Awards Season: The Oscar Nominations 2016
So it’s the award season, Oscar nominations, where the movie industry gets together and pretends to be happy when one of their fellow peers wins an award instead of them.
I’m sure a lot of people will agree with me when I say I don’t really care who wins what. Good luck to those who do win but it has no bearing on whether I like a movie or performance.
