I don't really understand why awards shows are still a thing. They don't mean anything... It's like the "Top 100 rock songs of all time!" lists... they're just a small group of peoples opinion on something everyone has different opinions on. Like, sure, give lifetime achievement awards to people who have done a lot in a field, whatever, that seems reasonable. But, "This person acted better than every other person last year!" Or "This movie was the best movie last year!" are not only incredibly subjective, but silly. Why do people care?
I guess I'm especially confused when folks here get really into it. This is a fairly eclectic gathering of folks, we all see the validity of differing preferences and opinions. What some random group of industry people decide is worth acclaim isn't relevant to anything...
Someone please explain to me the allure.
