Jennifer Lawrence is gonna win her second Oscar already
First one was undeserved. This one is definitely not.
This one is as undeserved as her first, this Oscar should go to Lupita.
I don't want Matthew to win, unlike the other nominees he doesn't seem to care about the person his character was at all. His GG speech was horrid (as was Jared's, talking about THEIR struggles and failing to properly praise the people who they played).

Racism requires discrimination so I wouldn't say it's that, if anything I'd say it's very culturally insensitive and disrespectful.

I can't stand people who text, or use their phone, at the cinemas but shooting them is a little uncalled for.
this ^
My guess is there is more to the story,
can't shoot someone for that, but a little respect goes a long way
No, some people are just dumb as hell. I wasn't shot, but I went to the cinema with a friend of mine and we were talking/on our phones, when some woman told us to keep it down because she was trying to watch the film. Thing is, the previews hadn't even started let alone the film itself.
Plus, I can see how talking to someone on the phone would be a problem in the cinema, but as long as someone's phone is on silent then you shouldn't even hear the text being typed (if you're living in 2014 and have a touchscreen phone that is).
Except that annoying white-blue light that comes off of the screen.
Also, leave your fucking phone in your pocket in the theater, movie started or not.
Um, in my case the previews hadn't even started. It was literally just ads for the popcorn and drinks in the theatre etc. If the film isn't on then you're not missing anything and it's pathetic to complain when the thing you've paid for isn't being affected.
And look at the screen and not at the seat in front/beside you, then you won't see the glare.

The fact that he didn't have it out and wasn't even attempting to aim a gun at them?
Doesn't matter in the slightest! Have you any idea how long it takes to pull a gun? Seconds, if that. It wouldn't even matter if no gun was ever found.
I'm done with this conversation, I'm not blood-thirsty and clearly a moral compass isn't valued.
-
Saved me typing just that right there. Absolutely spot on! Flawless, I'm sorry but you clearly know absolutely nothing about how these situations are handled. The fact that he didn't have the gun on his person is totally irrelevant because how exactly do you expect the police at the time to know if it was in his pocket, his hand or back in the cab?why would you fire a shot in the air and run the risk of the bullet coming down and killing an innocent? when you start trying to aim for a limb or any other smallish area you run the risk of missing and hitting an innocent, hence why cops are trained to fire center mass. armed officers yelling for him to get down didnt stop him you think firing a gun in the air will? the guy was an idiot and his death is strictly on him and him alone.
The fact that he didn't have it out and wasn't even attempting to aim a gun at them? I know you seem to be big on supporting this pointless killing, but if the police were THAT well-trained, he wouldn't be dead.

Yes because when the police are telling you to now move bolting from the cab is a really good idea isn't it? If Duggan had just listened to police and not moved he would still be alive but no, he had a gun on him, dropped it in the cab and ran for his life prompting the police to chase him and ultimately shoot him.
Duggan was being investigated by the police as he was involved in gun crime and drugs, he was being watched as part of a police investigation. He was identified as a dangerous person, when police identified themselves to him he bolted from the cab and was later shot, the officer that shot him was convinced he saw him holding a gun. The gun in question was later found in the cab, just because he didn't have the gun on him at the time he was shot that does not mean he wasn't a dangerous person.
Whose gun was it then?
How did he get himself shot? He wasn't even armed and so wasn't an immediate threat.
You mean like the drug dealing gangster who got himself shot? Gimme a break.So many heartless people... wow.
He had a gun but he wasn't armed, it wasn't even on his person.
What a bunch of bollocks, fact is that he didn't have a weapon on his person and so could have been restrained in another way. Two police officers against one man? "Don't bring a knife to a gun fight" - Mark Duggan had a gun but he didn't have it in that situation, on his person (that's the important part).
Not surprised some people think like you do though, there are some people in this world who justify killing someone because they do the dangerous thing of carrying skittles and a drink.
You don't shoot people because they run away, and the logical thing would be to fire a shot in the air as a warning. What did he do as an unarmed man, to cause two armed officers to shoot him? Honestly, they could have shot him in the leg or something to (as I said) just detain him, killing shouldn't be the first resort.

Don't give a fuck about his acting or dancing, he can definitely sing, made some of the best pop/R&B albums of late and he plays guitar and piano as far as I know.
Being a good singer in the studio and being a generally good singer are different things. He does well in the studio but his vocals are all over the place when it comes to live performances.

It's all a conspiracy! You people make me laugh. It's not surprising though, you're guaranteed to come out of the woodwork as soon as something like this happens
I'm not saying a conspiracy, I'm just saying that shooting someone who was completely unarmed isn't right.
I think ADPT, Dazey and totts have it pretty much pinned down in this thread, it's hard to swallow, it seems wrong sure - but the officer in question did what any of us would of done, he was a dangerous person.
He didn't have a weapon. Since he was already being investigated, they could have arrested him. If he had a gun on him, I'd get it, but he didn't.

not a fan of pedophiles being honored?
Not too keen, no.

How the fuck is JT talentless?
Can't sing, can't act, can't play an instrument(s), is a very stiff dancer (no fluidity)...
-
Lupita should've won, Chiwetel should've won and Steve McQueen should've won for directing. Woody Allen shouldn't have been honoured and Matthew McConaughey? Hah.

Bruno is an amazing performer, it really annoys me when people say he's talentless. JT is rather talentless, the only thing he's decent at is dancing and he's stiff at that.

Ugh, it should be Bruno on his own (possibly with a couple of guests, being people that he's worked with). I was looking forward to it, not so much now. It's not that I dislike RHCP, I'd just prefer Bruno to have the 12 minutes to himself and not have to share it.

Sounds got nothing to do with it, as long as they get em out for the video, this is 2014, no one listens to pop music anymore, they perv at it.
I listen to pop music... and that's gross.

That's going to sound dreadful.

Tributes have been pouring in for a Pakistani teenager who was killed on Monday when he tackled a suicide bomber targeting his school in the Hangu area.
Aitzaz Hasan, 15, was with friends outside school when they spotted a man wearing a suicide vest.
Despite the pleas of his fellow students, he decided to confront and capture the bomber who then detonated his vest, his cousin told the BBC.
Aitzaz is being hailed as a hero in an outpouring of praise on social media.
There have even been calls for him to receive the army's highest honour awarded to those who have sacrificed their life for their country, though it is unclear if he would be qualified to receive it as a civilian.
"We the citizens believe that State of Pk must award Nishan-i-Haider to Pk's brave son Shaheed Aitezaz," journalist Nasim Zehra tweeted on Thursday.
Confrontation
The incident took place on Monday in Ibrahimzai, a Shia-dominated region of Hangu, in north-western Pakistan. There were almost 2,000 students in attendance at the time of the attack, media reports say.
"My cousin sacrificed his life saving his school and hundreds of students and school fellows," his cousin Mudassar Hassan Bangish told the BBC's Aleem Maqbool.
"The suicide bomber wanted to destroy the school and school students. It was my cousin who stopped him from this...destruction."
He then described the sequence of events as related to him by witnesses at the school.
Aitzaz's friends had urged him not to confront the suicide bomber but he ignored their pleas and decided to confront the man with the intention of halting him.
"So he told them 'I'm going to stop him. He is going to school to kill my friends'. He wanted to capture this suicide bomber. He wanted to stop [him]. Meanwhile the suicide bomber blasted himself which resulted in the death of my cousin," Mr Bangish said.
He described Aitzaz as "brave" and a good student. "He always used to say 'I am always ready for my country'."
His family insist that rather than focus on the sorrow brought about by his death, they want to focus on their pride in his actions.
"He is a shahid [martyr]. A shahid of his whole nation," he said.
His family have also spoken of Aitzaz's actions in Pakistan's Express Tribune newspaper.
"My son made his mother cry, but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children," Mujahid Ali, Aitzaz's father is quoted as saying.

Posting Tom Hiddleston gifs is very inconsiderate.
And I say I love you to people all the time, it's just something to say, it doesn't really mean anything.
"And I say I love you to people all the time, it's just something to say, it doesn't really mean anything."
That's fair.
So how can you love me when I am nothing you would ever want to love?
What's love?
What even?

Everyone saying he deserved it sound so pleasant, I'd love to be around you guys.
Are we taking racism way too far?

But still hilarious that the straight white men are saying that people should get over racism, who would've thought?
