Yo Zay, you my boy and all but why is Monique on this list? Her performance was great but Jules Winnfields>>>>
Hell, Sam in The Great White Hype is :ohlawd:

Just because someones role wasn't deemed Oscar worthy, doesn't mean it doesn't deserve it. Look at Gary Oldman. He's one of the greatest actors ever imo and he's only been nominated once.

I think the best way to get the country out of the current economic situation is to levy an additional 20% tax on stupid people that make silly posts on the internet

It doesn't matter whether he wins an Oscar or not, Sam is the record books as the highest grossing actor of all time. To HOLLYWOOD Execs that means more than a Oscar ever could, this nikka can present any script to them and get a green light for it as long as he has a prominent role in it. Not to mention at the end of the day the people determine your worth not the Academy, it's the same reason Cuba Gooding Jr will be forgotten and Sam Jackson won't.

Exactly, plus these entertainment awards associations/organizations are controlled and maintained by the status-quo of white elites, so for African American actors/actresses, winning, losing out or not being nominated for a Oscar, Tony or Golden Globe award, is not always based on just acting ability alone.
