    Plus you're only listing last names, so you wouldn't even have to attempt to spell Quvenzhane.
    LOL, you don't think I was joking?
    I was joking. I know her name is Quinnzhave. Just look in that thread you referred to!

    Ik you were joking, I'm just wary of this trend calling her "girl" / "the little girl" developing beyond the context of that initial thread.

    I can understand it. I was just trying to be cheeky. Can you imagine something more demeaning or stupid than calling someone "the little girl"? I cannot.

    Though I understand the objections to Quvenzhané being called "Little Girl", I must say, one of my best friends calls me "chiquito" and it doesn't bother me one bit.

    I like 'em all, pretty much. Love Phoenix, Cotillard, Riva, De Niro, Kidman and a few others, I'm sure. Only wish DiCaprio got nominated over Arkin and stuff.

    Oh but since this is AMPAS and Cotillard and Kidman didn't get nominated, there are two less than what could have. Hawkes makes three. But Phoenix, Riva, De Niro, Day-Lewis, Hoffman, Chastain, Waltz, Wallis... wonderful, love it. Jackman and Washington are great too. Can't qualm too much with the rest of them - although I guess I could, but I could also rave about the aforementioned a lot more, and I'd rather do that, but I'm not, so I'll deem this year a smash!

    Smash!

    1- Joaquin Phoenix
    2- Bradley Cooper
    3- Anne Hathaway
    4- Tommy Lee Jones



    5- Jennifer Lawrence
    6- Sally Field
    7- Christoph Waltz



    8- Emmanuelle Riva
    9- Qvenzhane Wallis
    10- Robert DeNiro
    11- Amy Adams
    12- Phillip Seymour Hoffmann
    13- Alan Arkin
    14- Jackie Weaver
    15- Daniel Day Lewis



    16- Naomi Watts
    17- Jessica Chastain



    18- Hugh Jackman

    I feel like I’m being a bit too harsh on jackman. After all I thought scene-by-scene he was quite good (except for Bring Him Home), but really, the more I think back on Les Miz, the more I see my main and almost only problem with the film is that Jackman simply is not Jean Valjean.
