So the nominations for the Oscars have come out, and for the most part the nominations are the ones that I mostly expected to appear. But a controversy has arise, as they always do when it comes to the Academy Awards. We see that in the second year in a row there were no people of color, specifically in this issue everybody brings up, black African-American talent, who were nominated for an Oscar.

The beloved and world renowned film critic and writer of the Chicago Sun-Times sadly passed today on April 4, 2013 at 70 years young. He is mostly known for his television show At The Movies with Siskel and Ebert, which he co-hosted with his late reviewing partner, good friend, and also renowned film critic Gene Siskel of the Chicgao Tribune. I'll be honest I have never grown up watching the show as I was too small to understand the concept of film crit…
