There were still some surprising snubs in this years Oscar noms…………a few that I am really ticked about and some that just gets a raised eyebrow. Here’s the list…….
- The Blind Side being nominated for Best Picture is bulls**t plain and simple.
- Julianne Moore NOT being nominated in the Supporting Actress category was nothing short of requiring a call to Amnesty International for Human Rights violations! Maggie Gyllenhall being nominated in her place for a GOD AWFUL performance in Crazy Heart was what put my fingers on the phone!
- Viggo Mortensen being locked out of Best Actor and The Road being locked out of everything was another travesty. Not even a Best Adapted Screenplay nod? The film itself is standard Oscar fodder which makes this all the more surprising!
- Last year Gran Torino and this year Invictus? The Academy really seems to have it in for Clint these days!
What are your thoughts? Let us know!
I will precisely look this animated cartoon at a cinema...
Leave it to Clint Eastwood to make a movie about the horror and atrocity of apartheid in South Africa and claim it was all overcome by the Rugby World Cup. I don’t care how (ridiculously) hot Matt Damon is in it – It’s in breathtakingly bad taste.
