The Truth Tank

This is episode 35 of The Truth Tank. This is the first part of a multiple part series, looking at the Academy Award’s decline over the years and the now infamous slap that has been seen around the world. This episode will look at the How, What, Who and Why of the Academy’s decline: How they have declined? What lead to it? The “It” being, the current ratings drop and How it is relevant in the past decade. In particular, the 2022 Academy Awards will be examined in detail; From the ceremony’s reformatting, politics ruining everything, the Academy’s obsession with diversity, running time to the cringeworthy jokes and annoying Oscar songs. Has the Academy’s quest to appease everyone aided in its descent and actually made it less relevant in a changing world? Who is in the mysterious Academy? How does it work? And finally, How do you get a movie to be recognised by the Academy once it does, and the Oscar’s campaign trail. https://thetruthtank.podbean.com https://www.facebook.com/ThetruthTank/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrhX1ZqvZx_xM59bk-tRa6Q
