So it doesn't matter how good the actual film is, it doesn't matter if people who aren't good enough work on the film, as long as these rules are met you can qualify for an Oscar?

The oscars have become meaningless to most people anyway. If I like a film, I like it whether it wins an award or not.

Maybe the Oscas should include a rule that films are historically accurate and not twisted/spun or otherwise adjusted?

So many films are full of lies, Braveheart, U571, films where history is altered to allegedly make a better story or to better appeal to audiences.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

They should do this in the Premier League.

At least 3 black players, 2 ethnic minority coaches, either the manager or assistant manager to be disabled and at least 1 female goalkeeper.

Otherwise not eligible for any silverware.
