"Oscar nominees..." "...were informed that their categories would not air live on the telecast, said the source (a current nominee who agreed to speak with Variety on the condition of anonymity). In total, eight different Oscar categories — original score, makeup and hairstyling, documentary short, film editing, production design, animated short, live action short and sound — will be awarded prior to the start of the upcoming March 27 show, edited for time, and broadcast sporadically throughout the evening. Other awards shows, such as the Tonys, have deployed a similar approach, but the move has sparked controversy among Academy members and the film community."

 

Basically the only category HOG is up for will not be telecast. Will Gaga bother to attend now?

Well there you have it...Gaga has ZERO reason to attend now...HOG won't even be a mention at the televised ceremony so why bother?

We don't care. We won't watch. We don't know what Oscars are. 

I can't wait to quote you when Gaga gets another nomination and inevitably wins! So pathetic 

N E WAYS This is a ridiculous move on their part and it's embarrassing lol they keep trying to pull more viewers in but the fact is people who want to watch the oscars are going to watch them, a twitter poll and cutting categories won't make more people want to watch! the people who worked hard on things like makeup, editing, score, and the short films, deserve to be recognized. they are just as important as the directors and actors

This is really sad and I don't get the point. You'd think after a 2 year long and ongoing pandemic, they would focus on increasing entertainment for the world, after all, that's their business isn't it? :partysick:

This is such a terrible decision. The Oscars are really dropping in prestige precipitously. Film editing is such an integral part of filmmaking, along with all crafts. They’re really pandering here and I hope it backfires on them hardcore.

I’m sure there are other ways to make it less than 3 hours long…. Poor decision
