The Oscars? Nobody cares about anything anymore. Just read the data
Oscar winners 2021
According to preliminary data from Nielsen Live + Same Day, an average of 9.85 million viewers tuned in on Sunday night to watch a more intimate, scaled-down version of the Oscars in the midst of a pandemic. This is a decrease of 58.3%, 13.75 million viewers compared to last year. The Academy's third consecutive official hostess show scored 1.9 among adults aged 18-49 on the fast national charts, a 64.2% drop from 2020.
For comparison, last year's ceremony scored 5.3 in the key demographic and 23.6 million viewers for the fast national night time zone rankings. The 2019 Oscars scored 7.7 in adults aged 18-49 and 29.6 million viewers. While up 12% from 2018, that viewership figure represented the second-smallest audience ever for an Academy Awards telecast at the time. 2018 had the lowest number of viewers previously with 26.5 million viewers. In short, a continuous decline
Since 2014 the audience figures have always been decreasing, or almost, but in recent years these decreases have become dramatic and extreme. A real disaster that, this year, has become evident.
In the end, who cares about an award that doesn't give a damn about the tastes of the spectators and that, in the end, has become a sort of essay festival for the politically correct. A boring, rather crude stuff, which wins only for its anti-racist content, anti-discrimination, first of all, but not in favor of anything. In the end why everyone go to a boring and ugly film, just because it is politically correct?

End of the simple explanation. In the end, a good film is always appreciated, and to be good it is not enough if it is politically correct or pumped by a handful of journalists.
It takes something more
