I'm and peace. So, as we all know, MBA great and future hall-of-famer Kobe Bryant was nominated for an Oscar for his animated short called "Dear Basketball." He went on to win the Oscar for "Dear Basketball." Let's see how it transpired.
Of course, I'm gonna chime in. Feature from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, yelling "Retrain!" Oscar Isaac, Mark Hamill, and BB-8.
[Applause]

Great to be here and to be together again. Yeah, it's great. You know, people complain so much about the Star Wars prequels, but the sequels have been 10 times worse than any of the complaints made about the prequels. At least the prequels had some type of genuine focus. They were actually trying to develop the backstory so that the viewers could understand the original trilogy. These sequels have just been pure feminazi propaganda and garbage. But that's neither here nor there. I'm also to pick up my monthly check under the Jedi pension plan. They never end. I think it's robot discrimination. It won't be a thing in about 10 years. But the Oscar joke writers better be careful because these Me Too are on a rampage right now. If there is any, if there is even an implication that they're trying to mock or create a satire for the Me Too movement, they gonna be on the Oscar writers' asses like flies on here.
Here are the nominees for Best Animated Short Film: "Dear Basketball," Glen Keane and Kobe Bryant. "Garden Party," Victor Caire and Gabriel Grappe. "Lava," James Ford Murphy. "Negative Space," Max Porter and Ru Kuwahata. "Revolting Rhymes," Jacob Shu and Jan Lachauer.
[Applause]
And the Oscar goes to... don't say La La Land. Don't say La La Land. "Dear Basketball." Glen Keane.
[Applause]
This is the first Oscar and nomination for Glen Keane and Kobe Bryant.

I mentioned this in a previous video a long time ago, but the Oscar ceremony is really just a reinvigoration of the artisan award that they had back in ancient Kemet. The statuette that they called the Oscar is really an allusion to Osiris and it's supposed to depict Ptah, who was the god of craftsmen, of artisans, of artists, of creators, so on and so forth. If you were to look up a statuette of Ptah and compare it to the Oscar, you'll see that it is the same statuette.
Thank you, Jerry, Max, Keane, our entire crew for your incredible talents. My wife, Linda, for your years of love and support. And to Kobe for writing "Dear Basketball." Some misses for all of us. Whatever form your dream may take, it's through passion and perseverance that impossible good. More than that, that's Kobe basically saying that he's going to start to try to battle LeBron for being the most woke at the lead. So watch out, LeBron. Kobe, Kobe is gonna try to compete with you for who can be the most woke former athlete or current at the lead on Twitter. John Wooden, a classic legendary Hollywood composer. He has, he has composed some of the most famous scores in movie history, whether Superman, Star Wars, and the Indiana Jones saga, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Jaws, Saving Private Ryan, you name it, he's done it. Fantastic composer.
Thank you, Miley Carter. Without you, we wouldn't be here. Until my wife, Vanessa, daughters Natalia and Bianca. Ti amo. Come to turn your corner. You are my inspiration. Thank you so much. Excitement. Kobe loves to flex with the Italian. That's okay. I like it, though. It is good when brothers are our culture. It is good when they can be as multilingual as possible.
[Applause]
BB-8 says we have to present another award. Congratulations to Kobe. Hopefully, he'll be as successful in the entertainment industry in regards to his movie making and television show making animation as he was in his basketball career. But anyway, peace.
