Black Gold!

Remember when Marisa Tomei won the best supporting actress Oscar for My Cousin Vinny, and people were really salty about it (and still are!)?

gently caress that noise. Marisa Tomei owned that role and deserved that Oscar :colbert:

Whether someone’s maddest about Saving Private Ryan losing to Shakespeare in Love, Brokeback Mountain losing to Crash or Marisa Tomei winning for my cousin Vinny is one of the great character tests frankly

The Oscars acknowledge the true cinematic greats such as the Academy Award nominated film Norbit but the Golden Globes do not.

:hmmyes: :agreed:

Also, going back to the 1950s, High Noon losing out to The Greatest Show on Earth. Who the gently caress wants to watch a movie about clowns??

Unless it’s Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

Oscars rarely get awarded to comedies which is apparently a factor in the opprobrium. She was fine, and certainly no worse than any of the other nominees.

I love the conspiracy that Jack Palance read the wrong name off the card but since it was announced the Academy had to honor it

This was basically the Oscars from 1988-2008

quote:

These nine actresses left nothing to the imagination in their Academy Award-nominated performances, and proceeded to take home the prize: In 2008, Kate Winslet won for The Reader, which was the first time in five years an actress who went nude won since two monster-related performances: Charlize Theron for Monster in 2003 and Halle Berry for Monster's Ball in 2001. Flashback two more years to a string of consecutive naked wins: Hilary Swank for Boys Don't Cry (1999), Gwyneth Paltrow for Shakespeare in Love (1998), and Helen Hunt for As Good as It Gets (1997). We get two more consecutive winners in 1994 and 1993: Jessica Lange in Blue Sky, preceded by Holly Hunter in The Piano, respectively. Finally, we reach Jodie Foster, who dramatically stripped down in The Accused in 1988.

Let's get clean and smart


My dad loves movies and we went go see Crash when it came out and I was still a a teenager and hadn't heard the phrase "Oscar bait" yet and I still thought "Wow I think they made that movie just to win an Oscar"

Every time we visit he wants me to watch The Departed with him though, he loves that movie. And American Hustle.

:hmmno: I googled "best actress after showing boobs", which is obviously far classier

but also it was a p. big unspoken thing about the Oscars, especially after back-to-back boobs with Halle Berry and Charlize Theron

may have to subscribe to this theory, 1995 had MTV award it to Pulp Fiction over Forrest Gump, 2000 had MTV award it to The Matrix over American Beauty and the Lord of the Rings trilogy swept 2002-2004 in the MTV awards over A Beautiful Mind and Chicago.

edit: lol I just looked up the 1992 MTV Movie & TV Awards and T2 won every single category

lmao that a beautiful mind won anything, poo poo was a straight snoozer. he doesnt even pork his blond roommate
