Alec Baldwin was in Glengarry Glen Ross for literally 5-7 minutes in one scene and won an Oscar. :yeshrug:



That ether.:banderas:

Alec Baldwin has never won an Oscar and was not nominated for his role in Glengarry Glen Ross.
He has only been nominated once for his role in The Cooler.
Al Pacino was the only actor nominated for an Oscar from Glengarry Glen Ross.

Ya'll win. But, it was even reported some of the Oscar voters didn't even watch the movie.

That happens every year though...the Oscars are strictly political anyway...if you don't campaign for the Oscar, you won't win..Mike Fassbender and Joquin Phoenix both made a big controversy about this part of the Oscars recently, saying how they hate the Academy Award process of "campaigning" for the oscars and that they refuse to do it

Pretty much hit the nail on the head.
Lupita had a massive push in the media so it was pretty much a given that she was gonna win that Oscar.

You guys know she won for SUPPORTING ACTRESS right?
Yeah and the oscars are bogus. Every movie has supporting actors who have just as much screen time as the star. This shyt has become a popularity contest. Ol girl was cool in the movie but that wasn't no fukking great performance.

First bold is true. Second bold is ridiculous, but subjective so i respect your opinion, but my opinion is she deserved the win and got the win:yeshrug:

It wasn't and as a 30 year old man rooting for the sister I can say that. There were 2 or 3 other actors in the movie who deserved it over her.

Black woman bashing never stops on this site. Anthony Hopkins won best actor despite having 15min screen time. Jennifer Lawrence, the miscasted broad in a shytty movie some of you clowns are saying should have won over Lupita, had around 20 minutes of screen time.

I've been noticing later that TLR has spread into the TFR:scusthov:, time to abandon this sub forum.

She did well and she got the Oscar...geez. If you got a problem with the process, join the club but it is what it is at this point. If you want it to change, join SAG, star in a couple flicks, and hope the academy invites you to join and you become a member and change the process. We all know it's political. We all know it's a campaign, we all know that not everyone will be happy with who wins.

Pretty much, I normally stay out of these types of threads because I know what the agenda. I'm just glad other people see it as well.
