The Grammy's are a joke.
The Oscars are a joke.
These "academies" and these people who pick this stuff are a freaking joke. The snobs of these industries are just as bad as the people who listen to a million bands that you've never heard of, because that's cool. "screw mainstream"
Well guess what? There's a built in way to tell what the "best" is.
It's called sales.
The more money people spend, the more they like it. I hate popularity contests, but in the case of music and movies, it should probably be the case. If more people like A than B, then obviously A is better. Why should it be up to a small number of individuals to decide, when you have a whole crap load of people who have voted with their hard earned money?
