Re: Categories One-By-One: Supporting Actress
mojoe, if you want to look at a cameo role that is truly worthy of a nomination, do yourself a favor and watch Woody Allen's Another Woman and see how Sandy Dennis does it. And I think you are literally the only person on this board who found The Butler any kind of good. I will have to check that o...

Re: Categories One-By-One: Supporting Actress
Jane Fonda for The Butler? Yes sir. Here's my thing, if you can pull off an impressive performance in a cameo role then it should be in consideration. Jane is a seasoned professional who is quite amazing as an actress and pulls off an even more amazing Nancy Reagan, her time may be short in her act...

Re: Categories One-By-One: Supporting Actress
This year's Supporting Actress category is probably the weakest line-up in a long long time June Squibb- June was good, funny, and hit her comedy marks when needed, but I definitely wouldn't call it an Oscar worthy performance. At times it also seemed like she was reciting her lines via que-cards Sa...

Re: I found a new site for Oscars =)
I've never seen it until today. I find some of the results baffling Sally Kellerman winning over Karen Black Margaret Avery winning over contenders like Meg Tilly and Amy Madigan just to name a few. Love that Jacki Weaver leads in not only 2010 but also over everyone but Anne Hathaway in 2013, makes...

I found a new site for Oscars =)
So this is not a database like this one here, where we can speak about our voting/ thoughts. This one is set up for just voting like we were members of the Academy. Some of the results are truly shocking, also I noticed everyone on this site has major hard-ons for Glenn Close ( for example, her Albe...

Re: Best Picture and Director 1992
I voted for " A Few Good Men" and Robert Altman I've never liked Howard's End nor Unforgiven so they wouldn't get my vote. I would actually substitute them for Indochine and Passion Fish I'm voting Robert Altman for the fact of this nomination would have been an "Overdue" win so ...
