Why Angelina Was Snubbed

Angelina Jolie AngelinaNoOscarNom.jpg

If you saw the list of Oscar noms yesterday, you might have also noticed that Angelina Jolie was not on it for her strong performance in A Mighty Heart. Why? Perhaps because the film didn't make a lot of money, suggests Us Weekly's film critic Thelma Adams. “It’s really about the fall movies that come out at the Toronto Film Festival [in September],” she adds. But does she think Angelina deserved it? “I personally do think her performance warranted an Oscar,” Adams says.

Do you?



KeiraNoOscarNom.jpgKeira Knightley was also surprisingly snubbed for Atonement. Wonder why?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...Angelina Sucks!!! Payback is a bitch!



Posted by: K

She did a HORRIBLE job on this film as is gettinge xactly what she deserves for her performance- nothing.



Posted by: michelle depp

Anything that Angelina does deserves any award associated with it...the woman is amazing & I love her!



Posted by: STFU

Snubbed? Oh STFU! I hope to GOD it's you, X17 asking this & not Angelina herself.

I hate it when any celeb acts like they should be automatically 'entitled' to be nominated for an award.

SHE DEFINITLY DESERVES AN OSCAR. JUST SAW THE MOVIE AND THOUGT SHE WAS PHENOMENAL!

No. The movie was ok but a bit tedious. After watching the real Marianne Pearl, who is so unique, I think they made a mistake in casting such a controversial actress. I also think the timing of the movie smacked of the studio capitalizing on the tragedy. Angelina was not a believeable Marianne. That said, the movie was probably a B- . Not horrible, but I wouldn't recommend spending the bucks in a theatre. It's rentable.

What a ridiculous excuse!Even less people went to see or even heard about 'La Vie En Rose'which starred Marion Cotillard who got nominated or 'Away from Her' with Julie Christie, also a nominee.Both are INCREDIBLE performances.Even Cate Blanchett got nominated for 'Elizabeth' and that was one of the years biggest flop.But i guess none of you folks care because none of those films have Jolie in them She gave a blank-faced, appearance rather than a performance because thats all she can do.She can't act, her talent is looking phenomenal in a variety of choreographed poses in front of a camera.Thats it.Just because she screamed on camera, does not an oscar win..

No. I don't believe she should be considered for an award in that performance. Compared to someone like Cate Blanchett, she's an amateur. Angelinga hasn't really shown much growth as an actress, and maybe b/c there's an actual Marianne Pearl, I was expecting more of the actress who played her... You know, when Jamie Foxx played Ray Charles, you lost Jamie Foxx; same with Reece Witherspoon's June Carter Cash. Keira Knightley, on the other hand, DID deserve consideration. Her performance was right-on...that's okay next time for her.

Angelina Jolie did a HORRIBLE job in "A Mighty Heart." The casting director should be fired. Ang never was and never will be a great actress. She could do well in lesbian porn, but that's about it. That movie would have won if Ang was not involved. She can't act. Get real.



Posted by: why?!

Because she is a nasty ho. That's why.



Posted by: blablabla

I dont' think she warranted a nomination. All she really did was stomp and fume and scream and scare her supporting cast (I think they really were scared, not just acting).

If you look instead at Julie Christie's finely crafted performance, you realize just how out-of-the-running Angelina was.

On the other hand, that wasn't why she wasn't nominated. THAT just had to do with POLITICS!!!!!!!



Posted by: Lanie

Ummm...NO, Angie should not have been considered for an Oscar in this film. She sucks as an actress and needs to go back to her Tomb Raider fluff.

I didn't see the movie basically because I am tired of hearing about Angelina. She really kind of makes me a bit nauseous if you want to know the truth. Her "im better then everyone" attitude really irritates me.

SHE DID NOT GET SNUB....HER ACTING IS SO HORRIBLE AND STUPID...ONLY BRAGOOLOONIES WENT TO SEE IT....WHORELINA WAS SO BAD, BRAD GAINED THE WEIGHT SHE LOST....DUH...



Posted by: Yandy

Why was Angelina snubbed?? Well I will not judge her performance cuz I didn't see the movie, but the critic from Us weekly is cluless. Seriously box office had nothing to do with it. Marion, Julie and even Laura were nominated for movies that were flops. How does he explain that???
Also Both Marion and Julie's movies came out BEFORE Angelina's so the "fall movies theory" is also wrong. This was actually a very weak race, I mean they nominated Cate for a repeating performance in a movie that was panned by the critics.
About knightly getting snubbed, as much as I liked Atonement she didn't have enough screen time for going lead. IMO everybody was supporting in that film.



Posted by: Sonya (Tellin' it how it is)

lol X17!!! You're asking a very contradicting question. Why would you ask us if we think Angelina should be snubbed, when right before that you stated the movie didn't gross a lot of $. How would we know if she deserved the snub, WE DIDN'T SEE THE MOVIE!!! duh lol



Posted by: Anonymous

I agree that you should have been able to loose yourself in her portrayal of Marianne Pearl and just you didn't. It also did seem to soon after the death of Daniel Pearl for this movie. They should have found a little known actress. This really should have been a great movie and it wasn't.



Posted by: Lyla

I didn't even waste my money on that home-wrecking, no morals whore. She isn't worth the money or the time... But all her other movies are over-rated because of who she is. If you think about it, she sucks as an actress. I wouldn't spend anymore of my money to see any films her or her nanny Brad makes.

They are stupid she deserves to be reconigezd talent and igf she is pregnant another Shiloh fir sure beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She really wasn't good in the movie. Her

a total waste of money.

I will not watch the Oscars b/cuz of that mistake. If Angie is not nominated no one should be nominated. I don't even care about the other ppl. Angie is a phenomenal actress. All u haters just wish u could be her. Bitches! Angelina's talent is flawless and versatile; she is the best.

Angelina is so beautiful. I love her. I saw her profile on millionaire dating site WealthyRomance.com last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is looking for on that site.

Nobody who comments on these pages is ever going to be able to give a decent answer to that question. THe only answers they will give will involve insults and bad spelling.
You are all retarded, fat Americans. Americans are gross.



Posted by: I.Z.

I saw the movie and I think Jolie did not deserve to be nominated for the Oscars. I am sorry to upset all Angelina fans out there, but Kate Blanchett and Julie Christie are from a whole different league. These ladies are one of the FINEST actresses in the world and have real talent for acting (something that I cannot say about Angelina). I wonder how could she even be considered as one of the possible Oscar winners?

But I do think that people are over reacting about everything she does...

Great performance by Jolie. I wouldn't mind being snubbed by the Academy. Kubrick, Montgomery Clift, Barbara Stanwyck, Cary Grant never received Oscars.

I think it is great that she did not get nominated. This was a pet project hand picked by Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt to be worked on by their Plan B production company. Not only did Angie go after Brad, she also was very vocal in wanting to do this project because she knew it would bother Jennifer Anision. When Jenn and Brad split the company, he took the rights they had acquired from the book, and gave the role to Angie. The votes for the oscars are cast by their peers in the movie industry, so I think it speaks volumes that she is not well thought of enough to even get a nomination. Everyone knows what she is.



Posted by: J

The movie was soooo slow and boring and it should have been great given the material. Her accent was horrible and seemed to change throughout the movie. i'm not a huge fan of her's but i had high expectations for this movie and her performance and i was very dissapointed. Her best acting was done in Gia.

Angie deserve a nomination but it all politics. HOmewrecking crap is played by by the fools as usual. The usual hate for crapy marriage so funny. she is a talented actress and young. There will a lot for her.

Angelina definitely got robbed -- but so did Brad -- so they can comfort each other. There is NO downside when you are a Jolie-Pitt!



Posted by: Anon

I agree with that Angelina can't act. THANDIE NEWTON should've played Marianne Pearl...hands down.



Posted by: Cindy S

Yes she deserves the noms. Those of you haters should watch the movie first and critise her performance and not attack her personality. But then you can expect much from mentally challenged Angie haters! One thing for sure those critics has condemed the Oscar to a rating dud. The last one Brad was expected to be nominated but wasnt and the rating bombed big time caused no one wants to watch talented but boring actors. Even the one where Jen Aniston was presenter was a bomb rating wise. Interesting enough Morgan Freeman and James Mcavery and Keira Knightly were all 'snubbeg' as well but you dont see theitr name being hawked anout. Bottom line is Ange sell, just look at how many morons "anser I am sick of Angie"
but take the time and efforts to repond to the article! Losers!

Isn't this the role that Jen was supposed to play, before they broke up? I think I remember reading they got into a big fight because Brad still wanted jen to play but Angelina threw a fit because she wanted it? If so that could be why.. She stole her husband and her part.

Goodness, wake up! Brad is not stupid. He must have found something was not rite with his marriage. If Brad truly loved Jen, Brad would be faithful to her and he won't divorce her.

I agree with Debra Portman. all you women out there are jealous. The bottom line is when she gave it to Brad he had to have some more of her stuff. Besides Jennifer Aniston cannot keep aa man and she is plain ugly. Brad and Angelina are beautiful together!!!!!!

Unfortunately, she was the wrong actress to portray Marianne Pearl. It's interesting how most of the movies this pair chooses to make are complete flops.Ironic how these so-so actors and "committed humanitarians" are such crappy human beings and hypocrites when it comes to their own personal lives! Right - let's follow your example of faithfulness, love, and commitment! People aren't that stupid, Brand-gelina...your 15 minutes are almost over.



Posted by: Vee

I saw the movie. Angelina sucked. Her french accent was terrible! And she is supposed to be of French descendant. I agree with the person who said Thandie Newton would have been a great choice for the lead. Angelina is seriously overrated. And all those who say we're just jealous, there is nothing to be jealous about. If her dad wasn't a famous actor, Angelina would have ended up turning tricks for a living.
