Having said that, despite the biases they have...comeon they put more logic into giving their awards away than the bollywood awards. Bollywood awards are clearly bought...event the aam junta seems to be aware of it these days. 🤪Any aira gaira gets an award. Its not even funny anymore.



What do you think of Bullock winning the Oscar the previous year? That performance was weaker than the type of performances that gets nominated at Bollywood awards. She didn't even deserve to be nominated, let alone win in my opinion.

@Phoenix glad that you brought it up!!! Never felt that Sandra should have won the Oscar I didn't see anything amazing about her performance lol

Apparently I heard that Natalie did only like 10-20% of the ballet this girl claimed she did most of it but dunno whether it's true lol

agreed with the majority here...i actually preferred Jennifer Lawerence in winter bone to natialie in black swan....but meh there are always bound to be discrepancies...

But it is true that the jury arent all that gr8...keira knightly was nominated for PnP 5 years ago...and although i liked the movie and her performance, it was deeply flawed and didnt really deserve an academy award nomination.

having said that, i think most of the times they are quite fair...especially the ones which go to best actor/supporting actor...i have agreed with their best actor choices every single time...but yes, not really the actresses..but most of the times, they are quite fair...like when Kate Winselt , Charlize Theron, audrey hepburn etc won.

It's one of my favorite movies so I'm glad Keira won for Pride and Prejudice😆

What the audience considers to be good movies is also factored in for the Oscars as well, but the movies that they choose are mostly "solid" films....there are no chick flicks or Harry Potters or Twilights for Best Film (thankfully). I didn't think the Dark Knight was much but people were crazy about it and thought it deserved an Oscar.

As for Kate Winslet, she finally got one after the media noticed that she had been getting snubbed since Titanic days. I believe something similar to that happened with Colin Firth but I like him so that's fine😃

But overall, the best actors and actresses of most years usually are a bazillion times better than their Bolly counterparts, barring only a very few

I agree with a lot of points made her. Oscars is still better than bollywood awards. But they are not as great as we make them out to be on this forum. Sandra won an oscar? For what film?

And also someone mentioned that Kareena and PC can't do ballet...well there is a controversy going around saying Natile didn't even perform those dances. It was a body double. I mentioned that above...guess you didn't read it. :P
