    Standard B is very easy to meet and I would bet that the overwhelming majority of Best Picture nominees over the past 3 decades have met it. C and D also aren't that hard to meet (and obviously neither is A), this isn't really going to change much as far as what we actually see on-screen.

    A shame, this will only hurt creativity in film makers. Most people caring about s*** like this don’t even give af about films.

    Lol Hollywood is hilarious the entire industry bout to bravely come out as bisexual now.

    That was honestly my first thought lmao. Literally, what is stopping anyone from just paying some random tech or design worker on a film under the table to just say they're LGBT or something You can't look at someone and tell if they're gay or straight like you can with their quotas based on skin color or physical disabilities

    How are would they "confirm" such nonsense in the first place?

    "Okay you seem to be eligible for Best Picture, but there's just one more little thing we need from you before announcing the nominees: Your LGBT crew member, Joey from lighting... As part of our new diversity confirmation process, he needs to suck 3 d***s to completion back-to-back in front of the Academy board members."

    "Name one woman director who has made a major film this year—"

    "Okay okay...b-but you're talking about little independent films that have been seen very little in America"

    Holy s*** these reporters have zero self-awareness Basically just said if a minority isn't making blockbusters in America then they don't matter F*** this guy

    At first glance yea. But when you sit and think about it, it really don’t change anything at all. You only need 2 of 4 to qualify. What film in the last 20 years that’s won or been nominated for best picture, doesn’t meet at least 2 of 4?

    Theory

    I feel like the actors I know from Spain off hand (Banderas, Cruz, Bardem) experience similar underrepresentation in film/oscars? You have those 3 actors who have racked up 7 noms between them as being the only Spanish actors ever nominated in acting roles. Compared to 78 nominations for black actors.

    It seems like you feel a lot more passionate about this than I am and I’m not really trying to debate it but it seems like gate keeping to say that people from Spain wouldn’t be considered people of color. I get that Spanish isn’t a race, but generally Hispanic people aren’t considered white. Some hick riding around with a confederate flag would likely fail to differentiate between somebody from Mexico and Spain.

    My girl told me that Spanish people (Spaniards) rarely ever refer to themselves as Hispanic. They’re also not considered Latino at all.
