>did hollywood have an identity crisis or
>something???

Considering that actors and artists are being blacklisted if they appear unpatriotic (see: Dixie Chicks, Sean Penn) they have to pander to the masses. Most of their market is the lowest common denominator. This market already feels alienated by them considering most movie goers live paycheck to paycheck while hollywood is full of millionaires.

What happened at the Oscars really didn't suprise me. That whole industry is about money, and while I applaude the few who are morally strong enough to say what they feel is right and put their careers in jeopordy, most of them are just greedy sons o bitches.
