Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

We need to make a top 10 "Very Famous But Haven't been relevant in 10+ Years" list

I'm talking like not just making bad movies, but not even getting roles anymore. I mean Mel Gibson hasn't been in anything important in a while but he's been the lead in a bunch of movies in the last 10 years as well as directed a few.


Off the top of my head, 5 I can think of (in no order) are

Sean Connery
Joe Pesci
Richard Dreyfuss (although he's the lead in a new TV show, so this might disqualify him if it's good)
Gene Hackman? (seriously I have no clue when the last movie he was in. Royal Tenenbaums?)
Nicholson


All oscar winners. I guess basically it would be a list of really old white guys

I actually did go and look back. That was 2 years ago though. I remember Selma only winning for original song and Chris Pine shedding a tear during the performance. Other than that, Lupita got it for supporting actress.

The competition was strong in that year. Looking back only person I could switch out for Oyelowo's performance was Bale's performance in American Hustle.

Thing is I'm seeing in a lot of threads now that black ppl only get nominations for playing slaves and playing MLK in period pieces. They want to stress that it's a negative regardless of the strength of the performance and then the year a dude plays MLK and he doesn't even get the nom.

Last year as in looking at the best movies and performances of 2014 didn't have much.

I think you're mistaken. Selma was eligible for last year's Oscar, the 87th academy award. I thought Oyelowo shoulda been nominated ahead of Bradley Cooper
:lol: I confused Selma with 12 Years A Slave.

I was thinking about Lupita's win 2 years ago. Selma just got the music award at the Oscars for original song and that's it. Looking at the nominees for the 87th and yeah togh competition too.

I could see him getting it over Cooper.
 
Abe Vigoda died today.. That's a bummer
No :smh: He was 94 though.

I remember him mostly being on Conan when he was still in NY for Late Night and the constant death rumors about Abe :lol: It's bittersweet now.

Rejected Star Wars character:


700



Abe Viyoda :lol: :smh:
 
It's not a tragedy or anything, he lived a hell of a life.. But I kind of hoped he'd love forever. :lol:
 
Dude in Selma shoulda been nominated last year. David Oloymhdibeid or whatever

Man going back to 2014, I was so happy American Hustle didn't win a lick.

Highly disappointed when I first saw it.

Seeing Zack Galifinakis speak normally is a relief.

"I'll have the #57 please"

"Sir, that's the price"

"In that case I'll have the #4"
 
Bruh! This is the stupidest show I have ever seen, and it's fricking hilarious man, I can't stop laughing!
 
Checked out room the other night. It was a good movie. I actually read the book first so I was a little disappointed in the film. Everything went so fast in the film. I still enjoyed it. Little kid killed it.
 
They boycott the Louie Anderson Family Feuds on GSN dude's gotta have noticed :lol:

Saw The Beach yesterday. Leo despised 'fame' and 'stardom' like that? Explains a lot.
