1:16[SOT: Well you know, I’m gonna tell you something. Anytime you’re black and you play a slave a gay person or somebody mentally ill, you’re gonna get nominated.]<br /><br />That’s DL Hughley giving his take on this year’s Oscars and the whole Best Picture mishap… and of course he had a pretty funny point of view.<br /><br />00:50[SOT: So it went from a largely white movie to a largely black movie.<br />You’re talking about swinging the other way now. I guess the Oscars are America’s way of saying I’m sorry to black people for Trump.]<br /><br />Then we asked him about last year’s Oscar’s compared to this years… because in case you forgot, the hashtag Oscars So White was an actual thing.<br /><br />1:44[SOT: Do you think there was some of that? Some reaction from last year?<br />Sure. <br />Making up for it, overcompensating.<br />I think sometimes, just like in a ball game, you complain to the ref enough, he’ll give you a call.]<br /><br />But when we started talking about movies with him, he gave his two cents on Manchester By the Sea versus Fences.<br /><br />2:04[SOT: Fences was unbelievable for me.<br />And I saw Manchester by the Sea and it made my eyes bleed. It was the most boring movie I ever seen.<br />You know something? It was boring for you? I liked Manchester by the Sea. I enjoyed it. I liked it, it was very subtle—<br />Subtle like dead people are subtle.]<br /><br />Either way, he was happy Moonlight won best picture but he doesn’t think it will change the black communities take on homosexuality.<br /><br />But it sure was nice to hear what he had to say.<br />
