No Oscar for Vedders acting in Singles = BULLSHIT

The Oscars have all got their heads up their arse. Vedders acting was amazing in Singles. He added a lot of depth to a role that would simply be lost with other actors. He out acted Matt Dillon and deserved more.

Chris Cornell should have got Best Supporting as well. Bullshit.

    Damn right. Ed was fucking ON FIRE when he was watching the bee documentary. Anthony Hopkins? Jack Nicholson? Morgan Freeman? All hacks compared to Ed. Fucking academy.

    Oh yeah, Eddie Vedder Totally nailed the role of Eddie Vedder. That "Shhhh!" was inspired.

    Who knows how much better the world could have been if Ed pursued his acting career instead of that band he's in?

    ...
    I disagree. I found his performance too derivative Brando's performance in 'The Wild One'.

    I see I'm preaching to the converted. Seriously - Ed Vedder as Neo? HO-LEE SHIT! Ed Vedder as Aragorn? That would have made Lord of the Rings memorable. And he could still have made music. Lots of actors make great music while keeping an acting career. Case in point: Bruce Willis and Steven Segall.
