Why is the western world so facinated about slums, poverty in a developing country ?
GO HEATH!
yay yay go meryl your the best actress ! i hope to god you win lol
It’s seems like from reading these comments that you are either a Brangelina fan or a Kate Winslet fan. For the record I am 100% a Kate fan! She has been deserving an oscar for years now…GO KATE!!!!!!!
Hooray for Michael Shannon! He ROCKED that movie!
meryl or amy NEED to WIN
SP did a great job in Milk and MR was average as a Meathead in TW. Tropic Thunder is the best of the bunch. RDJ wins… you ma ma make me happy! Do the right thing and give him Oscar!
just saw the wrestler,and I think that mickey rourke should win,very very good mickey. why isnt gran torino nominated??? that was avery good movie
Crossing my fingers for an Oscar to Meryl Streep for her amazing performance in Doubt!
Seriously, I don’t get the Heath Ledger thing. The man is DEAD! Sure he did a good job, so did Frank Sinatra, should we give him an Acadamy Award and possibly and Oscar now? NO!!! Give Heath an honorable mention or moment of silence if it pleases you, but there are other people that deserve that award and they are actually aware of the fact that they have won it.
HEATH LEDGER ‘09! Us Aussies admire him and he inspires me. He only started acting in school because he had to either do acting or cooking ( no hope for cooking). If he was going to become a pro actor he had to quit hockey, and if he had nothing to do with acting he would hav become a pro hockey player. The best movie that Heath has been in that shows off his personality and who he really is, try watching 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU.
Heath Ledger, RIP, is gonna win for supporting actor
I congrats Colin & Kate!
how slamdog milionioFUCK get oscar. its a ***** INDIAN ****
