But we did have to commend her for her tribute to Prince attire. All in all, the Oscars seemed to be a complete waste of time, money and tuxedos. Maybe next year, movies such as Malcolm X and Boys 'N' the Hood from 1990, and actors like Washington and Larry Fishburne won't get slighted in the voting. Until then, we can only dream that the academy learns to give credit where credit is due, and not to who it has overlooked for so long. Vegas group attempts to head off riots
