Title: Another lowest ratings ever performance
Post by: Token on March 05, 2018, 11:41:48 AM
You guessed it.  Early reports this morning are showing a 16% decrease from last years oscars.  These people truly don't get it.  They are clueless because they keep pulling shitty ratings and yet they keep doing and saying the same shit.  It's unbelievable.  I have no idea who won shit because I didn't watch a second of it but I did read today that Kobe Bryant won an oscar for some shit which is hilarious to me.  The entire narrative this year in Hollywood has been sexual harassment victims and how it needs to stop, yet they give an oscar to a guy who was accused of rape?

Saw one comment that said if schools had as many armed guards as these schmucks did at the Oscars, there would never be a shooting.  But they're going to lecture us gun control.

H-I-larious how predictable all the awards show responses have become.  Frankly, I dunno why anyone but industry folk watch 'em.

It's a big circle jerk and who gives a rat's ass?  Doesn't matter whether you're watching the Oscars/Grammys/Tonys/CMAs/TeenChoice/AVN.

Scratch that last one.

Apparently, the Best Picture winner this year is about a mute woman who falls in love and has loads of sex with the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

^^This.
Also, what is up with the Like calculator? If this is correct and you actually really do have more Likes than I do, then I guess this has a lot to say for the average intellect of the x.
Even if the majority of Likes are from Nook and Token, it's sad.
Then there's the occasional Like that you seem to get from Buzz. But I'm cool with that too.
Who in the hell wants to get Likes from Buzz? Not me.

Quite frankly even before all this shit with our country I never understood awards shows, the incessant need to slap one's self on the back for making a movie.  You get paid millions but still need the love me of an awards show? 

Gimme a break, I have no interest, in self-appreciating mother fuckers!  Present company excluded.

Well, truthfully, many of the movies from the early years that were winners, really were works of art.
Intelligent writing. Great acting. Just enjoyable.
Today? half the shit you see on the screen is not real anyway!

So Hollywood says...

http://www.vulture.com/2018/03/2018-oscars-lowest-academy-awards-tv-ratings-ever.html


Nothing to see here.  It's not what you think it is.  Move along.  

These numbers will no doubt prompt a slew of bad headlines, not to mention a parade of hot takes about what the ratings mean: Liberal Hollywood is out of touch with Real America! This is what happens when Wonder Woman doesn’t get nominated! The show is too long!The biggest factor in the Oscars rating free fall, however, has nothing to do with any of the aforementioned hot buttons. The Nielsen numbers for Jimmy Kimmel’s Oscars broadcast will be way down because ratings for almost everything on TV are way down these days. Annual double-digit declines for all but a handful of shows are now the norm in TV, and events like the Olympics (http://www.vulture.com/2018/02/2018-pyeongchang-winter-olympics-tv-ratings.html), the Super Bowl (http://www.vulture.com/2018/02/this-is-us-super-bowl-ratings.html), and, yes, the Oscars aren’t immune. Although this year’s drop-off for the Academy Awards looks to be particularly steep, and probably a bit depressing to ABC execs (and the movie industry), it’s hardly apocalyptic.

I've seen at least six different Hollywood reports promoting this same theory.  It's not because people are tired of the political viewpoints of the out-of-touch Hollywood liberals, it's just that nobody watches TV any more.  

They are going to keep doing exactly what they have been doing because they believe their own stupid lies.

Well let's see
Olympics down:  Tired of the Liberal, gay loving , anti American agenda of the TV hosts and athletes
Super Bowl down:  Tired of the liberal, kneeling, anti American agenda of the Sportscasters and athletes
Nobody on the right is watching any of it any more because we re tired of the BULLSHIT

The week after the Super Bowl, ESPN Radio Host Dan Libtard and co-host, Stugotz, were talking about the viewing numbers being way down.  They came up with every explanation they could, except the correct one.  They finally settled on Brady fatigue.  No one wanted to watch Tom Brady again in the SB.  Gee, never once mentioned protests/kneeling and NFL rating and attendance being way down all year.

Yet nobody has Bama/SEC fatigue?  Alabama played in the 3rd straight national championship game yet ESPN reported the viewing numbers were the highest rated broadcast they've had?

I mean, I watched it.  But I guess when singular networks own all of the relevant information it would be easy to manipulate.  Which makes me wonder why don't they just say the oscars blew the doors off last years show?

I didn't watch it.  Therefore it didn't exist.  
Same with Oscars.  I had no idea you could film somebody humping an aquatic creature and win one of their nifty awards.  If I'd known that I would have paid the prostitute I saw in Birmingham this weekend to shove a bass up her snatch.

There were a couple of them in Columbus back in the late eighties that would have several oscars!

Here's more left wing babble that misses the point. 

https://www.azcentral.com/story/entertainment/media/2018/03/05/oscars-academy-award-ratings-tumble-but-dont-blame-politics-entirely/396872002/

First, people just don’t gather for TV shows — even TV events — the way they used to. Ratings for the Winter Olympics were down (https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/olympics/2018/02/26/2018-winter-olympics-ratings-down-nearly-17-sochi-nbc/373859002/). Are those the wrong politics? Aren’t we rooting for the USA?
Ratings for the Super Bowl were down (https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/nfl/super/watch/2018/02/05/super-bowl-lii-tv-ratings-take-slight-dip-down-3-2017/306745002/). And it wasn’t because people didn’t want to see players there taking a knee during the national anthem. Because the players didn’t.
By far the biggest factor in Academy Awards ratings is how many people have seen the nominees for best picture. And not many saw this year’s bunch. 
Nearly 100% wrong on all points.  

1) Ratings for the Olympics were down. Not 20% like the Oscars down, but down.  It had nothing to do with "not rooting for the USA."  I didn't watch a single second of the Olympics for a variety of reasons.  First, the face of the whole thing, the abhorrent Lindsey Vonn, politicized the event with her anti-Trump ranting.  Stupid whore.  Second, there just weren't any compelling stories or figures.  Third, had I had any desire to watch it was quickly quelled by the butchery of coverage from NBC. From what I read, they turned the broadcast into a celebration of a lifestyle with which I am not comfortable.  Was it all political?  No, but 75% of my disinterest was rooted in the political and cultural.  

2) Ratings for the Superbowl were down.  The author of this piece completely misses the point here because for me (and many others) it wasn't about whether the players would take a knee in that specific event or not, it was my reaction to their behavior over the season as a whole.  If you don't believe the decline in viewership was directly related to the ridiculous political stances and proclamations of the pampered players, then you're not paying attention.  

3) Oscar viewership was down.  Not because nobody's seen most of the nominated films because that's typically the case.  Every year I look at the Oscar list (and I go to a lot of movies) and I typically have seen only one or two.  The reason for the decline is two-fold.  First, the stance Hollywood has taken politically is against everything a majority of us believe in.  Dating all the way back to the MASH years, the industry has pushed an ever-increasingly leftist social agenda.  It's finally reached critical mass.  Second, the self-congratulation has gotten ridiculous.  When you're celebrating a damn fish-sex movie, you've lost the audience.
