MercySeat
02.25.19 | @Ars Most people just felt it was Driving Ms. Daisy 2. Just an atypical "racism is bad" film. It also felt extremely lackluster compared to more challenging contenders like Roma or The Favourite, some of which even dealt with similar themes. Neek said it best, it was just way too safe. |

02.25.19 | Like it's a really good film but yeah, says nothing particularly unique about something admittedly really important

This makes no sense. The movie is super problematic race wise. By your logic they would have picked Roma |

02.25.19 | spoiler alert 1 the whole movie is a lie, shirley's family said the two were never even friends and tony lip was actually fired and probably didn't last more than two months as his driver |
alamo
02.25.19 | 2 it's essentialy about how a genius black guy gets into trouble and is saved by a racist white guy every single time |
alamo
02.25.19 | 3 the scenes when lip is "teaching" shirley how to be black are just flat out racist af, like him making dr. eat fried chicken or calling him out for not knowing any mainstream black artists like "these are your people!"... the way they pictured dr shirley not fitting in with black people is not true according to the family and it just makes him seem like a retard in the movie |
alamo
02.25.19 | 4 cop scenes are absolutely ridiculous, like that "not all cops" scene in the end or when they're arrested and shirley's like "violence against cops solves nothing!!!" when anyone who watched kkklansman would know better |

Black Panther is a superhero movie, never had a shot at best picture.
"This makes no sense. The movie is super problematic race wise. By your logic they would have picked Roma"
No, the academy likes it's content watered down and innocent enough. Green Book dots the i's and crosses the t's of their world view without really critically pushing anything. Roma by in large is way too large of a jump in terms of actual artistic flair and credibility for that to be the winner.
Green Book said the things they wanted to hear and was comfortable enough for them to go along with.

Trebor.
02.25.19 | yeah I agree that's why Green Book won, it's comfy and a crowd pleasure. Not sure what that has to do with PC or virtue signaling. That implies people don't genuinely like the movie and voted for it just cuz |
