BAFTA applauds film academy for new inclusion requirements. Read statement here:

of representation and inclusion standards that will have to be met for films to be eligible for the best picture Oscar starting in 2024, the organization has taken incoming fire from some who feel it has gone too far and from others who feel it has not gone far enough.

Therefore, a show of support from the other Academy across the pond, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, was surely welcome when it arrived late on Tuesday night. "We are delighted that the Academy has today announced its new representation and inclusion standards,", chair of the BAFTA Film Committee, said in a statement on Tuesday night."BAFTA introduced very similar standards in conjunction with the BFI for the Outstanding British Film and Outstanding British Debut categories in 2016 and we continue to review and expand these standards every year.

Indeed, the BFI's Diversity Standards, which are used to determine certain funding eligibility in the UK and eligibility in some categories at the BAFTA Awards, were one of the models consulted by the American film Academy's task force, which was headed by Academy governors. The Academy also consulted with the Producers Guild of America , as it presently does for Oscars eligibility.

These assholes really have the nerve.

ScottFeinberg And to think how exercised the GOP got when it was suggested that the GOP healthcare plan consisted of telling poor people to “hurry up and die”! If this isn’t a version of that i don’t know what is

Does your president KensingtonRoyal know about this tweet? You know acknowledging black/people of color in film and stage especially the whole idea of diversity isn't exactly his 'thing'.

I don't like the idea of forced diversion. Even if the intentions are good. If the idea is it doesn't matter what race, gender, or orientation ya have. I don't think it's a good idea to make rules that say otherwise

so... Is most european movies not qualified now because we ain't diverse enough in our people? Or i might mistunderstand it

It's becoming more and more difficult to take the Academy seriously. 🤷🏻‍♂️
