Why The 2016 Academy Awards Might Be The Most Controversial One Yet
But Not Everyone Is Upset
Boyz n the Hood director John Singleton, the first African-American director nominated for an Oscar, recently told Variety that people find something to complain about every year.
“It’s like every year people complain. People even complain even when we have a lot of nominations. It is what it is. I’ve been in the game for 25 years. You never know — it’s the luck of the draw for you. To me, I’m not surprised. I’m not disappointed either, as much as other people are disappointed.”
And he’s not the only one who feels that way.
