Evolution required her to be funny, and she's not, and that goes for every comedy she has been in. She's terrible. She just can't do it. Tomei did the comedy really well, but she can also do drama, among many other things. She gets way too much flak, in a bad way, but any time I watch My Cousin Vinny, I enjoy the movie. She doesn't annoy at all. On the other hand, there are many other roles I can never rewatch because they annoy the hell out of me.

They're just different.

One HUGE oversight for this list, in my opinion, is Sandra Bullock's win for "The Blind Side." Her performance was pedestrian at best, and her regional accent was literally all over the place. And to think she won over Meryl Streep in the terrific "Julie and Julia" AND Gabourey Sidibe in the incredible role of "Precious" is just a slap in the face.

The Oscars are stuck in a cycle of awarding someone that deserved an Oscar for a previous role, even though the role they win for isn't as good. And when they do win, they win over other actors that gave better performances that year. So those actors end up getting an award for another lesser role in a few years, and so on and so forth. Just remember that the Oscars are basically industry awards (which is why this happens), and not the be-all-end-all judgment of artistic talent.

I actually think she’s the best part of that movie even tho the movie itself is pretty average

I personally think that Nicole Kidman shouldn't be "honoured" with a dishonorable mention; her performance in 'The Hours' was breathtaking and stunning!

i'm pretty sure the whoopi goldberg one was a "we messed up" award. idk why she did not get it for the color purple.

eyyodc agree; like Paul Newman winning for The Color of the Money, instead of winning it in The Hustler

gadget00 Maximilian Schell in JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG was the wiser choice for my money.I preferred Mr. Newman's win for THE COLOR OF MONEY. He was certainly the award-worthy Runner-upon numerous occasions.

+gadget00 Lets not forget that the Academy usually tries to make amends when an Oscar doesnt go to a given actor/actress for a cleary better performance. Examples right above on this video: Judy Dench for the Queen in Shakespeare in Love, after losing an Oscar when she was, well, playing a queen.

+eyyodc Because Geraldine Page was long overdue her Oscar. They nominated her several times, and she finally won for that year. Sadly, she passed away the year after (1987).

Reese as June Cash was amazing, walk the line was phenomenal

Miranda Summerset I think Joaquin did a far superior job over her. Her performance in that was just “meh”

It is just a standard linear biopic. The ending is misleading as Cash was back on drugs and suicidal again by the 80s.

Noooooo...I love Renee Zelweger in "Cold Mountain" and Whoopi Goldberg in "Ghost"...

Nicole Kidman was fantastic in The Hours!!!

Kidman owned that Oscar. Flawless.

Why is Nicole Kidman in the hours underwhelming? She portrayed so well with depth and pain. With the nose and other things, I can relate her to Virginia Woolf

Carey Mulligan should have won for An Education instead of Sandra Bullock

An Education, in my opinion, is a snoozefest.

Also, Ellen Burstyn not winning for Requiem is a crime. It’s the best acting I’ve ever seen in anything ever.

and a true method actress too; she looks awful in it as that was what the role required
