Sixteen Oscar nominations, two wins.

The Oscars have been rigged since the early 70's. Halle Berry? That doesn't mean much anymore except to Hollywood.

What do you mean rigged? How are they ‘rigged’ in a way that the Grammys, Emmys and Tonys aren’t?

It doesn’t matter if the scipt is crap
Streep will crawl out of a gutter for the $$ in keeping herself down there in tony CT. That husband of hers? He’s another lame a$$ liberal and a failed sculptor. Mama’s working to pay taxes & new booties for the baby.

You won’t see any profit sharing with the workers with this gal. It’s all gold/s

I was attempting to make heads or tails of your post. Then I read it again, and I think you are comparing the bust sizes of Streep and Thatcher. Which is very strange in and of itself. Do you have a point or were you just making a “joke?”

When you put them together they don't look alike.

It's all the hair.

Streep is going to dwell drearily on the Alzeimers and downplay the accomplishments. Bet on it.

It isn't about real talent and the best movie, it is motivated by political correctness. Broke Back Mountain didn't get nominated because it was a hell of a movie. It got nominated because it was the first queer movie with big names playing in the starring roles. A few more recent examples, Fahrenheit 9/11 & Inconvenient Truth.

Most Best Picture winners are fairly conservative actually. BM was one of the best reviewed films of the year and it didn’t even win. F 911 wasn’t nominated for any Oscars! Besides I’m talking about the dramatic awards which are generally pretty good.

I heard her (Streeps) comments about it a few months ago and it didn't sound good. Also the Thatcher family has seen the script and are furious. The Left is so in control of all media in the UK (and they HATE her), I can't imagine she'll be portrayed as anything but a fascist monster.
