Angelina Jolie Reacts To Oscar Nomination

Celebs have released reactions to nominations for 2009 Academy Awards via AP. Here’s a quick sampling:

“Working with Clint Eastwood was a reward in itself that will last me a lifetime. To receive a nomination from the Academy on top of that is a privilege beyond any expectation. It has been an exceptional year for acting, and I am honored to be in the company of these talented actors whose performances all deserve this recognition.” — Angelina Jolie, best-actress nominee for Changeling.

“It is such a thrill to be recognized in this category with these remarkably talented women. I was with my parents and my dog when I got the news and we were all overjoyed — although I’m not sure my dog knew what was going on. This is a great day to be an actress!” — Anne Hathaway, best-actress nominee for Rachel Getting Married.

REACTIONS TO OSCAR NOMS

“I am so honored to be nominated for a film in which I am so proud and to be included with such a wonderful and talented group of women. It was an honor to work with [director Darren Aronofsky] and the rest of the cast and crew of The Wrestler. Congratulations to Mickey [Rourke], for an extraordinary performance.” Marisa Tomei, best supporting actress nominee for The Wrestler. Rourke received a best-actor nomination for his role in that film.

“It’s everything that you could possibly imagine it is, and not that I needed the nomination to know I was on the right path, but it certainly helps. It really does.” — Viola Davis, supporting-actress nominee for Doubt.

___

“I couldn’t have imagined anything like this a couple years ago. You just do your work and are happy you’re able to make some money. This is very, very special, especially because of the movie. It wasn’t that I read this character and said, `I have to do this character.’ It was more about the movie.” — Josh Brolin, supporting-actor nominee for Milk.

___

“I didn’t know at first what awards we’d won, and when I finally found out, I thought it was pretty great. To have as many as eight is pretty good.” — Milk director Gus Van Sant, who received a best-director nomination for the film.

___

“I am overjoyed by these nominations and deeply grateful that the Academy has embraced the music of this film. Slumdog Millionaire has paid magical dividends for so many people around the globe. I am deeply honored to be a part of a film that has inspired so many.” — A.R. Rahman, nominee for original score and original song.

___

“I’m delighted for Kate. I think she did two astonishing performances in Revolutionary Road and in The Reader. Whichever one the Academy went for, I think it’s her year. I think it’s her turn. I think that it’s wonderful for her, but I do think she’s done two astonishing performances.” — Stephen Daldry, director of The Reader. Winslet received a best-actress nomination for her role in that film.

___

“I’m extremely happy to have been nominated. And very fortunate. Playing Hanna Schmitz will always remain one of the biggest challenges I’ve ever been blessed with. I’m genuinely thrilled not just for myself but for the wonderful Stephen Daldry and David Hare. These nominations are a testament to their unwavering commitment to this film. And I’m also very happy for all the people in Germany whose hard work on `The Reader’ has been rewarded by these nominations. Surely Anthony Minghella and Sydney Pollack are smiling down on us today!” — Kate Winslet, best-actress nominee for The Reader.

Hahahaha look at that big ass forehead! What happened to her?
She looks 50. She looks like a bag of bones. She looks TERRIBLE.

Wait a minute, are all these post for real? Do all these dorks really worship brad pitt and angelina jolie? wow. This is sad. These two are such complete posers. I can see angelina jolie in highschool, out in the smoking area with her old real nose - not wanting to be part of the in crowd because she’s just so much cooler than them.
Get a like nerds.

Yeah, I think Kate Winslet is going to win the Oscar, but the cameras will pan on Jolie’s face in the hopes she pulls the ‘face’ again so the world can make fun of her poor sportsmanship like attitude when she lost to Anne Hathaway in The Critics Choice Awards. hahahahaha

Yes Carmen, unfortunately, it is true, they really do worship Brangelina. And if you say anything at all that they don’t like, they report you to JJ and try to get your posts deleted.

Sad isn’t it?

They both got the Oscar nods and that’s more than enough for me.

Congratulations Beautiful Angie. I would like to see you win another oscar as you are my chickie babe.

Bravo Angie!
Hope you win another oscar. Changeling was one of my fav movies and you were fantastic in it.
