10 Actors Who Should Have Won the Oscar But Didn’t

Posted on January 24, 2013



BY KEVIN CARR

Art is subjective, as is the appreciation for it and the accolades thrust upon it. This is no more evident that during award season each year, in which every film critic, entertainment journalism outfit and average moviegoer throws in their two cents as to what were the best and worst of the previous year.

The Academy Awards are famous for the nomination snubs (such as this year’s snubbing of Ben Affleck and Kathyrn Bigelow for Best Director), but less remembered are the performances that should have won but didn’t. Reasons for this range from the age of the average Academy voter to the sheer politics of the industry.

From the more-than eight decades of the Oscars, here is a look at some people who should have won Best Actor but did not.

Episode 291 – Do You Have a Shiv?

Posted on November 15, 2012

This Week: Kevin and Kristin run all a-sparkle into the Magical Studio in the Sky to squeal and discuss the latest and (God help us) last Twilight movie: Breaking Dawn: Part II. But before that, Kevin shares his war stories of surviving the near-deadly Red Dawn Brawl of 2012 (which was quite possibly as crazy as the I Am Legend Scuffle Kerfuffle of 2007). They also talk about Silver Linings Playbook and Kevin gloats about his accuracy in James Bond box office predictions. Then, it’s onto the DVD Round-Up before curling up in a ball and weeping at the loss of the Twilight films from our collective popular culture.
