«Breaking News» Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences reverses decision and will air all awards live at Oscars

After mounting pressure from Academy members, The Motion Picture Academy announced it has reversed an earlier decision to cut four award presentations from the live Oscars telecast.


With the move, all 24 categories will be shown live during the upcoming broadcast - as has been done in previous years.


In a statement on Friday, the officers of the Academy's board of governors said it 'has heard the feedback from its membership regarding the Oscar presentation of four awards – Cinematography, Film Editing, Live Action Short, and Makeup and Hairstyling,'  


It continued: 'All Academy Awards will be presented without edits, in our traditional format. We look forward to Oscar Sunday, February 24.'

Earlier this week, the Academy announced that the winning speeches for the four categories would be presented during commercial breaks and aired in a shortened video later in the broadcast in an effort to reduce the show to three hours.


Ratings drops, including last year's Oscars, was said to be the main reason that the Academy wanted four rotating categories cut from the live show starting this year.

But backlash grew fast and fierce. 


By Wednesday an open letter, signed by some of the most prominent filmmakers and actors, that harshly criticized the move was sent to the Academy, according to The Hollywood Reporter.


It read in part: 'When the recognition of those responsible for the creation of outstanding cinema is being diminished by the very institution whose purpose it is to protect it, then we are no longer upholding the spirit of the academy's promise to celebrate film as a collaborative art form.'

Some of the more high-profile names that signed the letter included directors Spike Lee, Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino, Michael Mann, Alfonso Cuaron and Christopher Nolan; cinematographers Roger Deakins, Emmanuel 'Chivo' Lubeski and Robert Richardson; editors Tom Cross, William Goldenberg and Mary Jo Markey.


Some of the actors who added their names included George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Robert De Niro, Elizabeth Banks, Peter Dinklage and Kerry Washington.


Wasting little time, the Academy responded with a letter to members defending the decision and blamed 'a chain of misinformation' on the backlash.    


The Academy also tried to assure members that 'no award category at the 91st Oscars ceremony will be presented in a manner that depicts the achievements of its nominees and winners as less than any others.


The 91st Academy Awards ceremony will take place at the Dolby Theatre in the heart of Hollywood on Sunday, February 24 on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
