Considering the miserable offerings put out there by Hollywood filmmakers over the last decade or so, and as the self-aggrandizing awards time rolls around again, the industry's name should be changed to "Hollyweird."

Indeed, they are certainly in dire need of getting their act together. Particularly, when the entertainment wild bunch is sorely lacking in imagination and original thought, which has been replaced by freak shows, re-make wrecks, shallow-minded stories, moral depravity, mind-numbing visual effects and violence, loud offensive themes, humorless comedy, and social/political agendas.

The same goes for the commercial ad industry and the tasteless art world. Unfortunately, arts and entertainment without class disease has spread to television, video games and the Internet. Sadly, there's not much left worth watching except for such things as "House," Disney, old movies, TV re-runs, the history channels and the national geographic channel.
