Merryl Streep has 16 nominations and 2 wins and believe me she will pass all
but Hepburn eventually and maybe even her because as she gets older they
will be throwing oscars at her.

Supporting != Leading. Supporting actress doesn't count.
Raja, The Great

BWHAHAAAHA.... One of the most overrated actress ever. All she is does
is mediocre Oscar bait roles every year. She is hardly versatile.
Katherine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Ingrid Bergman and even Jodie Foster
were infinitely better. In fact I will take Sigourney Weaver over
Meryl Streep any day.

You're far closer to the truth than raja, although not 100% correct -
an oscar for best actor/actress is a little more prestigious than for
a supporting role.

Supporting actress is really a consolation price. If you are that
effective on screen, screen time does not matter. Remember Anthony
Hopkins won BEST ACTOR even though he was on screen for JUST 16
minutes in Silence Of The Lambs. No sir, supporting actor/actress is a
loser category. It has been there, so that not everyone goes home
crying.
The only 5 Oscars that matter are Best Actor, Best Actress, Best
Director, Best Picture and Best Screenplay ... rest are all bollocks.
They are the 4 Grand Slams + YEC (best screenplay is the 5th important
really). If you win all 5 categories then you are a true winner. The
Silence Of The Lambs was a true winner.
http://www.filmsite.org/bestpics.html
The Big Five: Only three films have won the top five awards (Best
Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best
Screenplay):
It Happened One Night (1934)
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

In Oscar world they consider the top 5 (best screenplay is considered
a slam as well), we should do the same with tennis (YEC = slams), so
Lendl has in fact won 13 Oscars! Way to go!

You cannot compare 'winning' an Oscar with
winning a match. One is voted on by a select
bunch of people and in the other, you play
with an opponent.
Lendl won only 8 of 19 slam finals because
11 of the 19 times, he was beaten by someone.
The fact that Meryl Streep has been nominated
practically every year tells the real story - that
this greatest actress ever delivers an
extraordinary performance almost every single time.
I think they should rename the Best Actress Award
as the Meryl Streep Award.
Her streak of 16 practically consecutive nominations
is comparable to Fed's 23 consecutive slam SF
streak or his 11 consecutive slam finals streak.
Neither is likely to be broken.

oh no, winning best supporting is like a gold medal, but just in a
less prestigious event. like if the best actor oscar is a gold in the
downhill, the best supporting oscar is like a gold in freestyle
skiing.
Raja, The Great
I didnt. Sally Field is supposed to have lucked out anyway. I say the
same for the one dimensional Hilary Skank. I have no idea about Glenda
Jackson or Luise Rainer, but all others are great actresses especially
Hepburn, Davis, Leigh, de Havilland, Bergman, Fonda, Foster
This is a good website. It discusses who should have won.
http://www.nicksflickpicks.com/osactresbsbs.html
Raja, The Great
Wrong on all counts. There is nothing less prestigious or more
prestigious in Olympics. All of them get the same Olympic medal. It is
+ Gold for the country. I have never seen a prestige ranking of Gold
medals. Thats utter bullshit. Get your head out of your ass, troll
boy.

it just depends on what role you have in the movie. you can't get
a best actress award when your part was a supporting role BUT the
acting was just as great. in other words it's only role dependant and has noting
to do with acting. therefore they are the same in terms of acting prestigidity
imho.
Superdave
that's a pretty good way to look at it but i think it is even closer than that
because it's only defined by the role, no more no less, and the actor has no
control over their role but it is the same event !

i think the technical justification would be that the lead actor, by
definition, has a greater responsibility for carrying the story (since
he's the protagonist) and also has to do more acting, since he gets
more face time than supporting players.
but either way, it's kind of like arguing that the AO isn't, in a
strictly technical-tennis sense, inferior to Wimbledon. Even if that's
true, it's still less prestigious, just as the supporting oscars are
less prestigious.
But the bottom line is that we shouldn't make too much of this
difference: A supporting actor oscar counts fully as "having an
oscar", and any actor would much rather have 1 SA oscar than 10 second-
places finishes as a best actor nominee.

I like ABBA songs and they ruined the songs. I just saw 5 minutes of
it, and felt like poking my eyes out.

but this is not always true. sometimes the supporting actor not only gets more
"face" time but also has as important or even a more important role.

Is this your latest 'enlightenment'? So now Lendl is the
GOAT of Losers? 8 of 19 is pathetic!
StephenJ
very few things are 'always' true. it's true generally speaking, in
most cases, enough for us to make the categorical distinction.
Raja, The Great
He won 5 YECs. So it is 13 out of 28. Who cares he lost 15 important,
he won 13 important finals. Steep on the other hand won 1 and lost 12.
Compare her to Kim Clijsters. Thats would be more appropriate.
TT
Is it really?!
You consider Federer the GOAT...and he has a shitty track record against
Nadal at slam finals.
What if Federer had faced multiple Nadal level players?
Maybe Lendl did.

I feel the same way every time I see Streep or Brosnan acting. And
that's when they're not even singing...
Me
Your post has been marked with its standard one star Raja. Now fuck
off.
Raja, The Great
At least Brosnan has got a style... Streep sends out a lesbo/feminist
vibe.
Raja, The Great
yes the Lendl haters attack Lendl for his slam final losses, but won't
ever fess up to Federer consistent manlandling by Rafa in slam
matches. In fact Federer never beat Rafa at AO/FO/USO Thats quite
pathetic.

er he never played Rafa at the uso and only once at the ao. that's not
manhandling it's cowardice or incompetence on rafa's part. i mean Fed was there
waiting for him in ALL the finals. Rafa refused to show.

ahh, directors are over-rated, in the sense of getting credit for the
picture itself. truth is, directors are the quarterback of the team -
the most important player, but just a player. it's silly when they say
"a steven spielberg film" or somesuch, like it was all the director's
doing.

Uh, huh. And how many Oscars do *you* have, jackass?

Well, they have one thing in common - ListBoi will never come within a
mile of either of them. Or an Oscar. But he sure does feel confident
in pontificating about them, when he knows nothing about them whatsoever.

Tanking a set
gets too old and can't act anymore. 1983 was ages ago. They always
find an excuse to not award her...
Superdave
they did the same thing to Eastwood.
