I don't agree with that. I wouldn't say he's a garbage actor. It seems like that's a far cry from the truth. I am not saying he is the BEST actor--the best actor, in my opinion, is Daniel Day Lewis. Nonetheless, he has performed solid roles.

The Pursuit of Happiness was his best work.

Hebrews are fully retarded racists, they dont want equality, but that they have privilege because of their skin color.

I think that NBA isnt diverse enough - USA has 70% white people, but in NBA only like 10% of players are white. Why no one isnt talking about that? Same with NFL...

nfl too!

lordy knows black over represented in TV n nightclub staff

That's fine. You don't have to. But this is what I meant when I said only one of us was engaging in honest discourse. I honestly don't see how your examples follow any sort of logic. From my perspective, it looks like you are abandoning the conversation because you are starting to realize what you said doesn't make sense in different contexts.

Of course, what else are you gonna say? "Yeah, you were right, my shit was pretty idiotic, huh?"

No one's ever lost an argument here.

The general thought on the Pacino "Scent of A Woman" Oscar is that it was an atonement for him losing 6 (or 7 depending on count) times in the past for the best actor nomination. Also he had a double nomination that year (1993) for both SoAW, and Glengarry Glen Ross, so the deck was stacked in his favor to win something.

Same with Newman winning for 'The Color of Money,' after getting snubbed for 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, 'Hud,' 'The Hustler,' 'Butch and Sundance,' 'Cool Hand Luke,' 'Absence of Malice,' 'The Verdict' (probably the biggest travesty of all), and then 'Road to Perdition' and 'Nobody's Fool' later.

Blacks will complain racism at any point they can because it has worked. It will continue to work until the white populatin says "enough", you guys have equal footing and its your on genetics and poor breeding that has disabled you form prospering further.

To put it into perspective, mr turbo will chose to breed and his children will be just as dumb as he and his wife. then he will cry that they are discriminated against because he (an idiot) chose to procreate with his wife (likely another idiot, otherwise why would she be attracted to mr turbo), and the cycle of crying racism will continue

Yes, it was decent, but FAR from Newman's best performance.

Like the man said about Pacino, overlooked for the first two Godfathers, Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, And Justice for All, Scarface, Carlito's Way, Glengarry, etc., but he then gets it for Scent of a Woman?

They're sympathy Oscars, correcting prior mistakes made by the Academy.

They remind people that the process is highly subjective.

It seems black movies will only get nominated if it has to do with Slavery. Some guilt built in to make the whites pick it. What Spike Lee et al are forgetting is that the Oscar nominations are more about campaigning than anything else. Lots of push from producers to the voters to pick their movie. Gifts, kickbacks, etc....
