The Academy Awards launched a new rule for members who vote for Oscar winners: You have to watch the movies to vote.

THEY WEREN’T DOING THAT BEFORE!? How can that be a NEW rule? What were votes based on before before (You know the answer.)?

As if you needed another reason not to watch.

My only requirement for the Oscars is to tune it out and ignore it completely.

When they started acting like they had something important to say and spewed garbage for 15 minutes or so stopped watching.

We do it in our local, regional and even national elections. There is no requirement to be informed! LOL

Just vote what makes you "feel good".

I am not in the Academy so it does not effect me...
