The Oscars is people!

That year was such a superb lineup. Moana would have been my next choice.

Didn’t make much sense, though, ‘cause the ceremony wasn’t that long (sadly, for me)!

They’ve actually done those “montage” acting clips before. I think 2006? At least one other time also.

Good thing it’s not an award for box office success.

Those were not the stars of RRR doing the performance of “Naatu Naatu.”

Two/three movies if you count Avatar.

What? Crowe only has one Oscar, for Gladiator. Denzel won in ‘01.

You’re right, it is a well-made film, much more so than Forrest Gump.

We do have a term for that: “going native.”

JFK should have won in ‘91.

It’s a good movie actually. Just not as good as Raiders or Reds.

How is everyone ignoring Lady Bird? Easily the best of the pack.

This is not news, I remember hearing about this when the movie came out almost 10 years ago now.

I don’t believe you. Positing that an emotional response from an audience is the main goal of propaganda is not a stretch, and I used the example to argue how poor a criterion that is for evaluating a film’s quality.

Another film that really created an emotional response in theater-goers at the time? Triumph of the Will.

Weird, it has the same title as the English-language title of this pretty good 2020 gay German film:

I’m assuming you mean “See You Again,” which wasn’t nominated.

Because this list is laughably only including predominantly English-speaking actors, let’s mention some of the most egregiously snubbed from other parts of the world.
