In an interview with Insider, Rogen theorized that it's possible "people just don't care" about the Oscars anymore — and he has an idea as to why that is.

"I don't get why movie people care so much if other people care what awards we give ourselves," he said. "To me, maybe people just don't care."

"I don't care who wins the automobile awards. No other industry expects everyone to care about what awards they shower upon themselves."

"Maybe people just don't care. Maybe they did for a while and they stopped caring. And why should they?"

Seth isn't the only one to question the Oscars' validity. Jimmy Kimmel recently went off about this year's nominations on his show, all because Spider-Man: Far From Home wasn't nominated.

Hey Jimmy — there are movies out there other than Spider-Man. Deal with it.
