For longtimeI thought Tarentino would win that 3rd screenplay Oscar for it, but you know how elitist the AMPAS can be a lot & think they want to spread more to PARASITE now

& think you also saw HATEFUL-EIGHT right? Finally at age 87 Ennio won an Oscar

I gotta see it again, thought it was ok, but liked his alternate ending like I. Basterds

Cool, fast answer. Ever see GRINDHOUSE? & most don't still know but you can tell that '93's True Romance (***1/2) ($12m.) was his baby, the script anyway

With Brad Pitt a virtual lock to win an Academy Award for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood tomorrow, it's another in a long line of leading roles squeezed into supporting race that took home the golden boy, here are a few huge examples> Mary Astor, The Great Lie Eva Marie Saint in Waterfront Walter Matthau, Fortune Cookie Meryl Streep, Kramer vs. Kramer Timothy Hutton, 0rdinary People Jessica Lange, Tootsie Tilda Swinton, Michael Clayton & several more, if you read history Oscar pundits & critics were upset back for 1940 insisted Walter Brennan-*(greatest character player ever!) in The Westerner was a co-starring role, in winning his 3rd s. actor statue Can anyone name more off the top of their head?

Is this your fav Tarentino picture to date? Personally I still go for Pulp Fiction & was most impressed at how he handled Inglorious Basterds & languages,etc & Christolph Waltz was brilliant!

& I bet CATS takes WORST FILM here, not even a tech Oscar nom

Boy, Cats really hit the deck & from it's first trailer months ago it looked like it may be Oscar bait? Not exactly CHICAGO, huh

Check out goldderby.com for coverage on these as well, they even cover the bottom of the barrel Peoples Choice Awards

Since I first started going to 36-60 new releases a year in 1982 I even went to the awful movies, try to stay clear f them now though Surprised at Sly for making this version after Creed, but Creed II was lousy, he says he';ll kill of Rocky in Creed III! MY QUESTION IS WHY?

In my files I even have all it's WORST FILM WINNERS Before them were HARVARD LAMPOON"s HASTY PUDDING AWARD FOR WORST & NATALIE WAS SOLE PERSON TO ACCEPT IT

All said they were finally gonna be televised this year though, reckon not to quote Eastwood?

The lead Heather died of a brain tumor very young, blonde gal

Hanks said on his THE MOVIES CNN special that due to all the technical aspects it was the most difficult film yet made! I remember Ebert & Siskel & others were furious it wasn't up for BP & BD but did win 4 Oscars Given this era al;ways surprised there wasn't a sequel, probably because it was so hard to make (P.S. Sadly, Hoskins is already gone at just age 71 in 2014, he was all set to play Al Capone in THE UNTOUCHABLES, but De Niro became available SEE: Long good Friday, Mona Lisa & Cotton Club)

Lot younger then myself I was 23 A '88 film Hanks delivered a powerful per in that year was Punchline opposite Sally Field as well

cool how Slater did a Nicholson impersonation in it too

your correct, she was in Beetlejuice in '88, man did she change fast

anyone mention Terry Jones just died at 77 of Alzheimers?

To TopBilled, had hoped you'd predict the Oscars buddy But been watching some on Demand The Great Race for one & several others

How about The Man with the Golden Arm (E. Bernstein)?

& one of the few Oscars it lost

Not a Doris Day fan myself

Frank really took a risk in '54's Suddenly portraying such an out & out villian to the end

Now your talking my #1 Idol here! Though only a fair (**1/2) remake, I think Four Daughters was better.

I know this one is close to your heart In My alt Oscars I woulda voted it Best Film of '66
