I have a terrible feeling Daniel Craig is going to will himself into an Oscar for “Queer”

This happens occasionally. You have an actor who is a star, who’s recently outside their peak earning years, who hasn’t been awarded yet, who does an “audacious” role to show what a committed thespian he or she is, campaigns with the zeal of a Palestinian suicide bomber, and then DARES you not to vote for him or her, even if the movie wasn’t especially brilliant or the actor has done much better performances.

The most notorious example for this is of course Kate Winslet for “The Reader.” Matthew McConaughey for “Dallas Buyers Club” and Leonardo DiCaprio for “The Revenant” are some other examples.

Why don't you wait to see it before you decide his performance is unworthy of praise.

That kiss is pretty hot

The examples you cited were well-liked. And Winslet had Harvey Weinstein.

You sound like a very unstable person OP.

The chances are also raised by the fact he's a straight man playing a gay man. Oscars hate gay actors, but they love a breeder playing gay.

Jesus Christ no one liked “The Reader.”

Daniel Craig is not straight, R5 .

Winslet also had a HUGE performance that year that was not nominated--for "Revolutionary Road." In many ways, that Oscar was for both performances.

I want him to rape me.

OP- Is he finally going to WILL himself to come out of the closet?

I saw the preview and he looks so hot.

I don't see what the problem is here.

How exactly would a person go about willing themselves into an Oscar?

I DID IT!

I bitch-slapped the Oscars Show host, and then I heard ‘WILL, you win the Academy Award’.

If he does indeed win and pulls that “WE just won an Oscar”, the British press is going to read him to filth. They don’t do that pretentious shit like our media.

The bootleg clips are hitting Twitter. Boy does he want that Oscar.
