The point of this thread was?

10/10 absolutely hit the nail on the head. You deserve a rare Wojack.

La La Land was an absolutely impecabble film. What made it oscar bait is that they went with the sad ending instead of the real endind, the happy ending.

Just to be 2deep4u.

silly. still good but silly. shoulda gone happy and they would have beat the gay black dudes film.

Who are the actors/actresses that automatically turn every work they participate in into oscarbait?

Joink!

The ones involved in this list

The entire production is dishonest and has shitty singing and music and dancing

I dont believe you.

instant oscarbait

this still baffles me. Changing to 10 nominees for best picture is the worst mistake they could've made.

Someone should shit in your mouth

bumpo

I bet Black Panther will get a Oscar nomination now since they made it easier for niggers to win it.

...

Meryl Streep. Not anything spectacular in any fashion but when she is in a movie everyone says how wonderful it is.

I want to make “The Bear and the Eagle”, a story about Morris Hubert, a Jewish man at Buchenwald forced to watch every day as a bear and eagle tore a Jew to shreds.

Oscarbaits are usually released around the time they start picking the noms, around November-December is when they are released.

Why Holla Forums?

Yes but an oscarbait can still be any film that eventually gets oscar noms or a win and which was perceived since it was released to be definite award bait

It's always been easy for them to win it. All the movie has to be is some white guilt fest about slavery or racism or whatever and it's a guaranteed winner. How do you think 12 Years a Slave won? From what I've heard, some of the judges didn't even watch the movie! They just heard the premise and instantly voted for it! Fucking bullshit man!
