Comments on: Why are the Oscars still interesting? http://blog.su-spectator.com/2010/03/oscar-the-awards-show/ News, arts, food and life from Seattle U's official student newspaper Fri, 27 Aug 2010 09:57:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Becky http://blog.su-spectator.com/2010/03/oscar-the-awards-show/comment-page-1/#comment-9487 Becky Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:10:26 +0000 http://blog.su-spectator.com/?p=6525#comment-9487 I lost respect for the Academy Awards when they nominated Brad Pitt for one. I mean, the guy's a good actor, but he's no Sean Penn or Al Pacino. *sigh* Body of work should not be the determining factor for giving out an Oscar nom. Why do some people - myself not included - still watch the Oscars? For the same reason *some* people pore over US Weekly every week; People have always been, are, and will always be fascinated with celebrities. What they wear, what they say, blah blah blah.
