I didn’t watch the Oscars this year, opting to watch some movies instead (“Transformers,” “Gravity”). While I’m sure this year’s host, Chris Rock, roasted the Academy and its diversity problems, I still didn’t feel compelled to care or watch. Fortunately, Twitter made keeping up easy and probably way more entertaining.
How do you feel about this year’s nominees or winners?
