I voted for De Niro here. The best in an extremely weak line-up. I do not like Leonardo Di Caprio at all, I don't think he's a good actor what so ever. But I will say, he truly deserved to win this year for Django. I think it was a complete shitty snub for him not to be nominated or win... My choice...

I am glad to see that Anne Hathaway is not leading in this category as her role in the awful film Les Miserables was way too over the top. If anyone truly deserved a nomination in that film it was Samantha Barks but even then is it a stretch. My choice is Jacki Weaver Jacki Weaver- I only went into ...

I am actually shocked at how little support there is for Quvenzhane Wallis, like for my vote to be the only one she got from the board... hmm? Jessica Chastain- Was good in ZDT but the biggest draw back for me was the fact that there wasn't a whole lot for her to do. She had one of those roles where...

You're an idiot.

Could you take your haughty, superior, cunty attitude elsewhere?

Hello kettle, Im Black

was candy clarke ever expected to win? like from press clippings or anything? my vote is to Blair

Melissa McCarthy has my vote here, she should of won the Oscar Berenice Bejo- I'm not one to point fingers but why the hell was she even nominated? The Artist itself was an awful movie so winning Best Director, Picture, Actor really pissed me off last year. Best picture should of been Tree of Life, ...

I think DeWitt is lead more than Supporting, Kidman I wasnt impressed with, and Dowd I havent seen- Weaver was a scene stealer and IMO its the D eN iro/Cooper fight scene that secured her nom and hopefully win

1- Jacki Weaver- Win 2- Sally Field- Runner up 3- Amy Adams 4- Helen Hunt 5- Anne Hathaway - I cannot fathom why people like her performance so much , Samantha Barks is more deserving and impressive I agree totally about Anne Hathaway but frankly nobody in Les Miz deserved to be nominated. I haven'...
