Sorry. I lost complete respect for the Oscars and their race game when they have the Oscar to Denzel Washington for Training Day just to have both Best Actors to be black (Halle Berry I believe).

Denzel has definitely pushed out some Oscar worthy performances. But. Not Training Day.

The worst part was when Julia Roberts saw who won she said, "I love my life...." PUKE!

Agreed.
He was a characture in “Training Day” and, as some call it, “coonin’”.

He should have won for “Malcom X”.

I thought "Training Day" was a very good performance. Of course Denzel does not do bad performances. He is freakin awesome!

He was awesome in "Book of Eli", and a lot of other movies as well.

I thought an Oscar was deserved for "Training Day".

By the way, the first movie Denzel Washington appeared in was "Death Wish."

I dunno. I loved Denzel and while watching Training Day I hated him. A beautiful man never looked so ugly.
