I’m hosting an undeserved Oscars Party

Emma Stone should be invited twice

And Hilary Swank

Can I come?

Marisa Tomei was great in My Cousin Vinny.

Invite the Olsen twins. That way you don't have to serve food.

Can I bring Jada?

Invite Sandra Bullock. And Renee.

Renee deserved her second Oscar so no she can't be invited.

Mira Sorvino, Mahershela Ali.

OLIVIA fucking COLMAN!!!!!!!!!!

AnnE.

Everyone except me.

[quote] Marisa Tomei was great in My Cousin Vinny.

I disagree.

Wrong on Marisa Tomei, OP.

Grace Kelly

Lee Marvin - Rod Steiger should have won for The Pawnbroker

Let's get this party started!

You're wrong then r12.

The discussion of positraction alone was Oscar worthy.

People complain they never recognize comedy and then when they do people complain.

Marisa Tomei's performance in My Cousin Vinny is exactly the thing The Best Supporting Actress category should be awarding.

Who knew Marisa Tomei had a stan.

R5 Girl bye. Your ass ain’t never even been nominated.

She was good in it, there were just better performances that year.

If anyone says me I'll cut them.

Jamie Lee Cuntis

WE just won an undeserved Oscar. I will forever love her for that speech. It’s everything you bitches hate about her and it was so fucking funny to see it in real time.

Actually scratch Marissa Tomei. I should have named Jennifer Lawrence for Prom Queen.

Oh, and Cliff Robertson. Peter O'Toole should have won for The Lion In Winter.

Elizabeth Taylor’s BUtterfield 8 performance.

Glenda Jackson for A Touch of Class. All four of the other nominees were better. She was just crabby in her film.

26 responses and no one has mentioned HELEN FUCKING HUNT AS BEST ACTRESS?

I've been trying to erase *that* from my memory, R27.

Octavia Spencer can clean up afterwards.

Did Sally Field truly deserve to win in 1984 or was it just a weak year for actresses?

And I am telling you I’m not going … without belting out a few tunes!

I thought Judy Davis was amazing in "A Passage to India," so I wouldn't say it was a weak year. I guess Sally Fields is just really likable!

R32. FIELD!!!

Don't expect me to come, fuck face!

R24 Yes, O’Toole would have been better, especially since he didn’t win for Lawrence of Arabia—but in 1968 Alan Arkin (The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter) would have been better still.

r30 I saw Places in the Heart recently and thought Sally was just lovely in it. The scene where she describes to the blind John Malkovitch what she looks like is so touching.

I think that win only got a bad reputation because of the speech. At the time she was considered deserving.

Interesting r32 that you love Judy Davis. She was considered a surprise nominee that year. I've never read the book but Foster fans thought she came across much too sophisticated and strong. The character was supposed to be very naïve and soft.

Grace Kelly and Rita Moreno!

Make Meryl be in character Margaret Thatcher all night.

Marisa deserved that Oscar! Comedy's difficulty is underrated.

And Julie Andrews for Mary Poppins

R40 Get out right now.

This guy.

Except Marisa didn't actually win, as everyone knows.

I suppose I can be the Guest of Honor.

Walter Brennan, especially if someone shits in his beers.

Don’t forget me, the master of ceremonies, you dirty Jew!

Emma Fucking Stone.

Christ.

And all the "you're the right complexion for the year because we feel guilty again" winners, of any color.

[quote] Except Marisa didn't actually win, as everyone knows.

She performed an important duty in keeping that cunt, Judy Davis, Oscar-free.

Marisa won. Watch the presentation on youtube. Jack Palance clearly reads her name off the card. That stuff about him looking at the teleprompter and just re-reading the last name was bull.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

Here's Marisa winning. Palance stares at the card for a long time.

Cher!

Oops! Wrong thread.

I know Marisa.

She has the card.

It has her name on it.

I’ll bring the ice.

Goop and Sandra Bullock can be co-guests of honor

Judy Davis hasn't given a persuasive performance in her life.

R57, perhaps even the Academy voters know she's a cunt and that's another reason she lost 😂

Dear little peasants, i would be glad to brighten your dreary little party!

Jennifer Lawrence, Angelina Jolie, Jane Fonda (her win for Coming Home), Helen Hunt, Halle Berry, Katherine Hepburn’s second and fourth.

R60 hates women.

R43 must be the one person who doesn’t realize that we know what happens when presenters read the wrong name at the Oscars.

So welcome to DataLounge, Warren Beatty!

Anyone remember when La La producers walked on that stage just to tell us, “Btw we didn’t win”. So ghetto.

That hermaphrodite bitch owns this thread.

Reese Witherspoon has an Oscar.

Glenn Close and Sigourney Weaver don’t.

What a joke.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

Helen Hunt and Reese Witherspoon are truly the Oscar equivalent of trailer-park dwellers.

I’m bringing my favorite vaginal scented candles to the party.

Hi. I’m the film “Crash!”

Hi “Crash.” I’m “The Last Emperor.”

R70. Move the fuck over, "The Greatest Show on Earth" just arrived.

Hi, R69, we’re Green Book and Driving Miss Daisy, and even we think you suck!

Why are you all so quiet?

Me!!!!

I was happy when Marissa won, it was a surprise, the only other surprise was when Adrian Brody over Jack Nicholson, Michael Caine, Nicholas Cage and Daniel Day Lewis. They were very gracious.

Sounds like this party will be for a bunch of small-minded, insufferable bitches with no taste.

R76 = Nicole Kidman

Fuck all you cunts for not letting us into your stupid party.

Susan Sarandon

Olivia Colman

…

R80 = Glenn Close

Tom Hanks

Viola Davis

Jodie Foster

Cher.

Linda Hunt.

Angelica Huston.

Meryl Streep.

Youn Yuh‑jung.

When’s the party? Can you wait a couple months?

Jessica Lange.

Liza.

Glenn must be drunk, because she doesn’t even realize that Angelica Huston never beat her for an Oscar.

Angelica did beat Oprah, and she’s the one who’s been petty about it for almost forty years, even though Huston totally deserved the win.

OP, I didn't receive an invitation. Hmph!

[quote] Angelica did beat Oprah

Big deal.

(And apologies to Maerose Prizzi, I should have corrected R88 and spelled Anjelica correctly.)

Hi. I’m Mahershala Ali.

Is Green Book going to be shown at the party? Cuz it should.

Hello. I’m Tom Hanks. And I have zero range.

[quote]R76 Sounds like this party will be for a bunch of small-minded, insufferable bitches with no taste.

[italic] They're a bunch of not very bright bitches who ought to mind their own goddamn business!

Need a DJ?

Angela Bassett, thread closed.

Will Cillian Murphy be mixing everyone's drinks?

R44, I read that as Guest of Horror. I was right!

Bette Davis and her thyroid condition that she called acting and the Academy actual bought it.

Invite Cher and Jodie Foster…cunts.

Kevin Spacey for American Beauty.

Do undeserved nominees count? Asking for G.

M @ r109 half of your nominations are undeserved, beeyotch 🤨

Are you nuts?

Jane Fonda was brilliant in Coming Home.

I'm going to speak some DL heresy.

1. Helen Hunt deserved her Oscar. She nailed the part of a harried mother, working in Manhattan while living in Queens with a son with medical problems. DL rates any British actress above American actresses. The fact is the other nominees weren't all that. Don't get me wrong, I'm a total Anglophile and the other actresses are terrific; just not in that year. HH deserved her win.

2. Gwyneth Paltrow deserved her Oscar. Sometimes, fresh face leaps off the screen and captures the hearts of the audience. Audrey Hepburn is a good example. I'm not a fan of hers either, but Cate Blanchett - admit it? She's given the same performance for 20 years.

Goop was hardly a fresh face at that point.

SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE is a great, intelligent movie, and Paltrow is perfection in it.

I don’t know why DL has taken to dumping on that movie. (HER, I can understand.)

R112 & r114 = Blythe Danner 🙄

[quote]2. Gwyneth Paltrow deserved her Oscar.

Never was much interested in her, didn't see any of her movies, but her performance in "Ripley" moved me. The heartbreaking scene where she thinks she is talking to Dickie through the door, not knowing he's dead. Oof. And the scene at the ferry where she attacks Tom "I know you did it!"

Can I RSVP?

Goop’s also good as a manipulative hooker in HARD 8.

I haven’t seen all her stuff (I skipped Shallow Hal, etc.) but she’s quite good in everything I HAVE seen her in.
