Nosaj Thing

My thing is yeah he had to go through some shit during filming due to the nature of the film and everything, but he didn't turn himself into another person for the role, which to me is what you need to do  to deserve an Oscar win.

Not everyone can turn themselves into Steve Jobs and portray him in a film. But a lot of people can probably grunt and growl their way through a film for two hours in the blistering cold.

Just an example but you see where I'm coming from.

Agreed. It's one of the most blatant Oscar baiting performances of all time and no one's calling him on it.

I forgot I was watching Fassbender in Jobs, that to me is the mark of a truly great performance.

Poor Sly. Would have loved to see him go up there.

Oh come on, it was a pure nostalgia nomination. Rylance is a world class actor. Great upset!

 

please please please, can Louis host next year?

Admittedly I haven't seen Bridge of Spies yet so I can't personally speak for his performance but I trust you. I didn't say it wasn't necessarily deserved, though it would have been great to see Sly go up there :tongue2:

 

Also LOL @ Louis CK

It probably was.  I didn't watch either film so I can't comment

 

Edit: Apparetly I'm completely wrong about this.  So I edited my post.  :facepalm:

Leo won.  Good speech too.  :thumbsup:

Really? I thought it was incredibly poor considering the situation, really.

Not even a "holy shit it actually happened" or some kind of joke?

Pretty disappointingly honestly.

Oh well, surprised The Revenant didn't win Best Picture but I look forward to watching Spotlight.

I thought he took it with class.  Chris Rock already beat the entire "wtf" joke to death all night.
