crash?

Crash won best picture? Are you effing serious? Did I completely miss something here? That was supposed to be a thought provoking statement on race relations? Are we talking about the same film containing young black men stealing cars, racist cops, an angry Muslim, and Sandra Bullock?

I understand folks acting as if they really got something out of it, but that percentage of the population should only equal roughly the same number of people who read Dr. Phil or maybe have trouble locating Waldo. It shouldn't equal a majority number of academy votes.

I sat through Crash, and my first thought was that a more fitting title for the film would've been 40 Stereotypes/Cliches and a Funeral.

But there wasn't a funeral.

There was not. However, notice how you focused on that and not on the bit about the stereotypes/cliches.

Still, I hate to be completely negative here. Crash did contain boobies and stuff getting blowed up (though all too brief on both counts), but I think I learned more from any given episode of "Welcome Back Kotter".

I suppose that's why I don't get a vote.
