Are the Osars Worth the Attention Anymore? (Jose Maria)

(Chunky butt Funky!) The Oscars have been celebrated for more than 8 decades and last week-end the 81st took place in LA, many celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston. But something is always questioned "Are the Oscars worth it Anymore?". To me the answer is simple: Yes.

It`s cear that the winning film of the years inst necessarily the best, since the awards are a commercial ceremony. But the truth is that, at least for me, the Oscars are really to go and watch the movies during the following week and, as i said, they are`nt probably the best movies but at least they can assure entretainment and above all, something to talk about with people.

Personally, i don't pay too much attention during the ceremony, but since TV these days is full of nonsense and bad quality programs, it's nice to see something which bring entretainment to the TV. But some winners like Sean Penn were determined to win or like Heath Ledger who, after his inminent death, anyone could have predicted his win.

But really, these days, the ceremony purpose has been reduced to one thing: Social talk, because everyone talks about them for the following 2 weeks after and if you missed them you're out of all conversations. Anyway, people my age can't really say theyy are'nt worth it anymore and even if they say it, they haven't seen more than 2 Academy Awards really.
