2009 Oscars

Waltz gets Supporting actor. Hands down.

He's been very polarizing with my friends so I wonder if he would be with the voters as well. For the record I thought he was great.

[Nathan]

I thought he was the best part of the flick.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yeah he was.

[B_Metal]

I thought he was the best part of the flick.

And I would concur but I heard from a shit load of friends, some of whom who have decent taste, that he just felt off to them. I think they're wrong but I wonder how the voters will see it. If he wins I wouldn't be upset that's for sure.

[Ed Hocken]

Dude was amazing in Basterds and owned every scene he was in. Probably one of the best villians out there. Right up there with Henry Fonda in Once Upon a Time In the West.

[Captain Russ]

Heh...Blind Side...
