Never really cared for the Oscars tbh, the way they go about choosing nominees and winners makes it feel rigged, I mean look at Dicaprio, I feel sorry for the guy. Will Smith on the other hand has been a bit nutty the past few years, especially with him and his son doing films together or his daughter trying to stand out.

When people can't make it on merit they claim racism or sexism. Welcome to 'murica.

In one case like best picture the academy didn't even use their own limits. I think 8 instead of the 10. As for the acting categories while they might have hit the limit, what's to stop then from increasing in by a few people and help reduce the chances of multiple years of only white nominees in a row? 

Though as people have pointed out, this happens because of issues much earlier in the movie making process.

Who cares what race someone is?

If the goal was to have diversity there, they would invite people from all ethnicity backgrounds. Will is not asking for diversity.

What if I told you..

they were racing.

Elba, Jordan should have made the cut. Not Smith, Concussion was terrible.

So is he nominated? Because if he isn't then his reasons for not attending lose some credibility

Get Gervais to host the oscars and i might give a damn.

Pretty sure this dude is one of the most successful Americans (multi-multi-multi millionaire, huge success in music, TV, and movies, one of the most famous people on the planet) period.
