Im sorry, but thats like saying Moonlight has no appeal outside of gay black men, your argument is basic. 

Also just to add to that, never seen so much backlash to such a good natured film. I dont recall any of this race baiting when The Artist won best picture, a film that similarly honors the history of Hollywood. I think Americans have a lot of issues they need to sort out.

 

La la land is a point less film.

Clearly the epilogue went over your head. Youre entitled to your opinion not to like the film, but it is far from pointless.

Only part of the Oscars I watched was the award for best picture, and it didn't disappoint lol

Moonlight was about actual reality and issues.

This song should've been nominated (and win) for best original song:

I haven't watched any of the movies but I watched a trailer for La La Land. It looked really fun. Too bad the protagonists had the wrong skin color.

Moonlight was better anyways

Maybe, but it wouldn't hurt to let a comedy win for once. It's not like the winners are based on quality anyway.

 I guess that's true but a comedy won in 2015 and also in 2012 (Birdman and The Artist)
