    True, but one gets emphasized more than the other.

    Well, it's obviously silly to say that Affleck/Argo has been winning ONLY because of his snub, so of course not. Argo has been underestimated by many of us. That being said, I don't think it turned out to be a bad thing for the film this season, that he was snubbed, do you?

    Her response to that stupid story was ridiculously sweet. She seems like such a sweet-natured optimistic person. I mean consider this:



    vs this:





    (Though truth be told I'd probably be crying if it started raining on my Dior too.)

    The media is constantly pitting women against each other. I doubt they needed Harvey's encouragement to do it.

    I LOVE those pics of Chastain and Cotillard. LOL. I swear this award season has provided us with more memorable images (Tommy looking unamused, Glenn Close 'drunk', Kidman/Watts at SAG, Russell's reaction to Riva, to name just a few) than any other year I can remember.

    Entitlement is the right word. What a piece of trash he is.

    I swear after Jennifer messing around with her three tier dress at the SAGs and same thing happening to Marion at BAFTAs, I will be disappointed if we don't see a full freaking dress tear at the Oscars. Dior and those damn dresses.

    ETA: Also after the Irish awards on Sat when Cotillard won, IMO I had her over Riva to sneak in for the BAFTA win (I know they're different voting committees). So Lawrence has US and AUS (albeit the latter could change with Watts), Riva has BAFTA, French (unless they do what they did last year, most likely not though) and possibly Euro vote.

    Just out of curiousity, has there ever been a young actress up for Best Actress or Best Supporting Actress (in the frontrunner position, at least) that the members of this forum (by and large) haven't ripped to shreds?

    Just sayin'.

    I don't think you are fooling anyone anymore. If anyone wants to take a look, they can check out the last two pages on which you feel the need to attack each and every post that says anything remotely negative about anything to do with SLP. I caught on early on to your game. I think maybe you felt other fans supporting you that was enough. But over the last two pages, you have felt the need to correct Michael Bay, Russen18, KitKat, DameMelissaLeo, and others. You have even called DameMelissaLeo "crazed" and ridiculed her for agreeing with Sasha Stone.

    Maybe the others here did not read your post last night where you stated Sasha Stone banned you because she would not listen to his scolding of her for not liking SLP. Sound familiar.

    You came on here in January 2013. And about 90% of your posts since have been praising SLP or, as in the last few pages, scolding people who say anything negative about the people involved in SLP.

    No one here owes it you to love that film or, even if they like it, love David O. Russell or Harvey Weinstein or Jennifer Lawrence's performance. No one here is obligated to do that and your attempts to shame people when they post is out of line. I shouldn't have to worry that every time I post on something I have you trolling me. You keep trolling me and I will report you. I have every right to post here whether you like it or not. I don't care you have some obsession with people who don't love SLP. But your need to ridicule those people is out of line.

    Leave me out of this. I have done nothing wrong and am not a part of this. At all.

    Will Oscar have Riva Fever?

    I don't think it was a "thing", period. A few weeks before Oscar nominations, I began to have a sneaking suspicion that Argo would emerge the favorite. So I do believe that it would have won all the awards it has won if Affleck had been nominated.

    Err, what? 90% of my posts haven't been SLP related and the rest of that post was gibberish and highly inaccurate. Please show me where I'm ridiculing ANYONE for not liking the film, not even Sasha, considering that's not what I said, at all.

    You don't recognize this. It is from the last page.

    You call another poster here crazy but yet that is not you ridiculing them. In what world is that not ridiculing. I post something completely having to zilch to do with you at all and next thing I know I get your reply making fun of me which you have used multiple times (a "so there you are" followed by a laughing emoticon). I am a member here. I have the right to post something without you immediately posting making fun of me for having the audacity to make a comment on Awards Daily Forums. You don't debate the comments. You attack me for daring to think I have the right to an opinion. How dare you?

    Give it a break. Do you think anyone here is falling for that? The person criticized the portrayal of mental illness in the film and said Jennifer Lawrence's performance was only 3rd best in the category. That is exactly why you went after them. You can't stand anyone saying anything negative about your precious film. Well too bad. The next time I post here and get a reply from you making fun of me for posting we can take it up with a mod. Otherwise do not reply to any of my posts. Just as I am not obligated to like a movie because you do, I am not obligated to put up with you bothering me for daring to post here.

    This is all a complete, utter and baseless assumption on your part. She wasn't even criticizing the FILM'S portrait of mental illness, she was criticizing for its use of mental illness to help its campaign, my god.

    Take this shit to PM. Better yet, it's not even worth it. Neither of you will ever agree with the other so you might as well give it a rest.

    I have no problem being criticized, I have a problem when people take my words and twist them, this is exactly what ldw is doing.
