"Creed," "Straight Outta Compton" win big at the All Def awards

While Chris Rock is gearing up for his highly scrutinized Oscars hosting gig, his brother Tony Rock was busy hosting a completely different celebration of film.

Wednesday night marked the first-ever All Def Movie Awards, announced earlier this month by Russell Simmons and created in response to the "stunning lack of diversity" in Hollywood.

The nominees vying for Best Picture showcased the types of films the Academy has snubbed this year: "Straight Outta Compton," which took the prize, as well as "Beasts of No Nation," "Chi-raq," "Concussion," "Creed" and "Dope."

Amid the more Oscar-like categories like Best Picture and Best Director, Simmons slipped in some more playful entries like Best Bad Muh F--ka, Most Quoted Movie and Best Helpful White Person.

The All Def Movie Awards will be broadcast on Fusion Sunday evening, opposite the Oscars.
