I know in my heart of hearts that they were not going to give tom that best acting nom but by god it makes me sad
#Tom Cruise
#Top Gun Maverick
#Oscars 2023
#Anyway! I simply will not watch again like i have always done (unless McQ shows up then it's a solid maybe)
#i fully expect to get hate for this opinion someone is gonna be like: so you're a scientology apologist?? oh so you hate minorities????
#As if the academy cares about either of those things too btw
#listen i get it I'm a bad film major I like mainstream things and i think the academy is a poor way to judge art
#but most people use the oscars as way to see a films merit
#it is the yardstick to measure quality
#now whether that's good or bad is up for debate however that's just how things are
#and i've spoken at length as have others that the academy's lack of respect for genre films (and also animation) really proves
#how out of touch they are
#Yes Top Gun Maverick got the nomination but Tom didn't and i know we quibble with Tom = Maverick or Tom = any of his lead roles
#but Without Tom there is no top gun full stop
#I'm not going to say Tom's lack of formal recognition is the biggest problem in hollywood right now
#There are Several more serious issues
#I just have a lot of feelings about this
#I know he doesn't care he's not actively campaigning and as my friend amanda said he did what he set out to do:
#Save Movies
#I just wish he was recognized for his efforts and that wanting is a double edged sword
#I don't particularly respect the Academy but at the same time I know people use their approval to measure quality
#And that's what it boils down to
