why would there be a backlash?\ -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 07:28 15
- Becuase the (presumed) win seems more like a career award than a performance award. - ty97 Feb 17, 07:34 6
  - historically, it doesn't seem to hurt one's chances of winning. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 07:34 5
    - She's 32 years old though..we're not talking Scorsese winning for Departed here. - Will Hunting Feb 17, 07:36 2
      - in Best Actress terms, that's practically Secretariat being sent out to stud. -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:37
      - Though if any 32-year-old deserves to be in the 'career award' discussion, she's probably it. -- nm - ty97 Feb 17, 07:37
    - We can't say that, can we? - ty97 Feb 17, 07:36 1
      - oh, sweet naive ty. -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:37
- a lot of people (apparently) really disliked her Golden Globes speeches. -- nm - Callisto Feb 17, 07:33 5
  - apparently there should be an Oscar for Best Speech at the Golden Globes -- nm - Roger More Feb 17, 07:34 2
    - I know, it's such a bizarre thing and isn't the first time it's come up. -- nm - Callisto Feb 17, 07:40 1
      - If Forest Whitaker ended up winning... -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:41
  - was Oscar voting completed before or after t hat? -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 07:34 1
    - nope. Oscar noms weren't even out yet -- nm - ty97 Feb 17, 07:34
- because The Reader isn't even her best movie this year. -- nm - Reagen Feb 17, 07:32 1
  - Holocaust = Oscar. Duh. -- nm - Shaun Feb 17, 07:34
