it'll garner nominations but i'll be surprised if it wins much of anything during award season. i hope if it doesn't win much that ppl don't decry that as more Hollywood racism. the pessimist in me suspects folks will use the Selma losses and 12 Yrs a Slave wins as proof that Hollywood only lauds 'our' movies when they're about something negative like slavery or gang life or drugs or whatever, but they ignore our stories that instill pride like Selma does. they'd be wrong about that b/c 12 YAS is a far superior piece of moviemaking than Selma, w/o regard for content. 12 YAS deserved every award it won. if Selma wins i'll be happy for the producers and directors and cast and whoever else wins. i just don't expect it not b/c of the story but b/c the movie ain't THAT worthy and i expect to see other movies that're more worthy.
