Thank you for selecting Ian McKellen. His Gandalf is a performance for the ages, and it pains me to remember he is still without an Oscar.
Yes and yes!!
The actors voted, not selected
I don't know why people always forget this; Julianne Moore was only in Supporting Actress for the Hours because she already had Lead Actress secured with Far From Heaven the same year. It had NOTHING to do with Nicole or screentime or anything else other than a competing role where she was THE LEAD. That's all.
She may had 2 noms ins lead then, right?
@@daims8041 No. Multiple nominations by one actress is not allowed at the Oscars. That is why Kate Winslet won with The Reader as a Lead Actress even though she has been winning best supporting actress for the same film at other awards.
@@rbak2679but wasn’t Scarlett Johansson nominated twice in 2020 for JoJo Rabbit and Marriage Story?
@@WesleyRageryes but Best Supporting for JoJo and Best Actress for Marriage Story
@@WesleyRageryeah but she was lead for Marriage story and support for Jojo Rabbit
There really is no right and wrong. Performances are subjective - this year I have more than one "best" in each of the acting categories. Interesting video - thanks for sharing.
Fun Fact: When Denzel won the SAG and lost the Oscar, that actually broke a 12 year streak of the winner of the Best Actor SAG Award winning the Best Actor Oscar.
Perfect timing to break that streak 😏
The SAG winning of Johnny Depp for Pirates of the Caribbean still one of my favorites. His performance in that movie is outstanding!
Thank you for that Ian McKellen mention. I feel like everyone’s performance in LOTR was outstanding but barely anyone was nominated because it was such a huge ensemble.
Hillary swank in boys dont cry was so powerful. She deserved that oscar. i was so shocked after watching boys dont cry.
100% agree with #1!!!!! McKellan was total EPICNESS in LOTR. Now, like you said, if Broadbent had been nominated for and won for Moulin Rouge, that would have aged much better than the forgettable Iris. And the fact that McKellan gave us Gods and Monsters AND LOTR and still has no Oscar to show for it? There must be a conspiracy against him.
Gods and Monsters is so freaking amazing. I love when I see it mentioned, since so many people have forgotten all about it. Thanks for making me grin
If I'm not mistaken Broadbent won in the Leading category in one of the international awards. Thus, it might have even been category fraud. Ian McKellen gave a true exceptional supporting performance and wasn't recognized 😑
The ‘conspiracy’ could be homophobia…
Okay. Now do a video for the top 10 times that Oscar got it right and other awards shows got it wrong.
This!
Good idea
ok that's actually a good idea
Thanks! I've been saying for ages that Russell Crowe should have won for A Beautiful Mind, not Gladiator. So glad someone else feel the same.
Agreed
Crowe gave a better performance in Beautiful Mind but Gladiator is the far better movie. Just my opinion LOL others feel differently
Racial politics and his problematic personal life blocked him from a much deserved back-to-back win.
Casey Affleck did in fact deserve the Oscar for Manchester by the Sea over Denzel Washington for Fences because Affleck's character had the challenges and difficulties of what his character went through, Washington's perfromance in Fences is a strong one but, it might have been a little too theatrical and a little too much Denzel.
I agree. It was just Denzel huffing and puffing like he does so many times.
@@jonathanvelazquezph.d.2719this so called awards expert forgot that the title of award says best not who will get best reception from crowd or who should have more oscars by now. This thing is very problematic cause legendary, overdue or diversity quota people actually gets the best reception from the crowd rather than young, unknown people or people who belongs from unknown or oscar stigma movies. I mean just look at What happened to Toni Collette and Charles Melton?
Now that you say it, how DID Sean Astin not get a best supporting actor nom for Return of the King?
Right?!?! He was the heart and soul of that movie!
Or any of the cast members for that matter. This film along with Parasite are some Best Picture winning movies that somehow didn’t have any acting Oscar nominations. It’s especially unfair that none of the actors got nominated especially considering that movie swept.
For me, Glenn Close winning in SAG over Olivia Colman is my favorite. She was indeed impeccable and I think Glenn failed to win Oscar because it was a smaller film unlike The Favorite. To me, Rachel Weisz should be the Lead in that film because and Colman should be supporting. I really think SAG got this right by awarding Glenn Close for The Wife.
I think Emma Stone was the lead to The Favourite.
I think the main reason Glenn Close didn’t win the Oscar is because her film wasn’t nominated for Best Picture but The Favourite was. The same reason Sylvester Stallone lost the Oscar for Creed.
I’m still sooo sad about Stallone. My heart broke for him in that moment. I remember feeling like that was his last shot. But maybe it won’t be 🤷🏾♂️
I will NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY Mark Rylance won that Oscar. He didn't do anything in Bridge of Spies. I wouldn't even call it a subtle performance. There was just nothing there. What did he actually win for?
I highly agree!!!!
Not a huge fan of that Oscar win either. He was just fine in that movie. He wasn’t memorable imo. I thought Tom Hanks delivered a better performance than him in that movie, but he wasn’t even nominated.
I believe it’s the British bloc of the Academy who swayed the votes in his favor, and Spielberg too. Mark Rylance is a well-respected actor especially in theatre. He is basically theatre royalty, like he is considered a second coming of Olivier in his generation (there’s Ian McKellen too). He head the Shakespeare’s Globe theatre for several years as artistic director. I don’t really remember Mark campaigning much during the Oscar season as he had a Broadway show then.
I also think of the same thing with Olivia Colman’s Oscar win, although she is known more as a TV royalty in the UK and many of the British voting bloc chose her over Glenn Close, but The Favourite is also a bigger Oscar contender.
Please cover that 2016 best supporting actor race, I would love to see that!
Can u do a vid where the sags got it right & the oscars too ?
Russell Crowe should have got the Oscars - the best performance of year by far - was totally political. He was acting bratty in lead up and that with reluctance to give back 2 back, was enough to skew it to Washington. He messed it up for himself unfortunately.
Also, there was a lot of chatter that Washington hadn't won since Glory and had yet to score an Oscar for a leading role though he'd been nominated hella times.
Gienn Close winning the SAG for The Wife should have won The Oscar over Olivia Coleman in 2019
Based on the nominees at the Oscars, I agree. Who I think should have won the Oscar that year wasn’t even nominated and that’s Toni Collette from Hereditary. I think Glenn Close should have won the Oscar for Fatal Attraction.
Absolutely not
I think you are right all around, and Ed Harris still without an Oscar, do you believe me if I tell you I think about it every time I see Ed Harris in a movie. This video was truly enjoyable and enlightening. Thank you so much for it.
I thought you gonna pick Glenn Close in 2019’s at the number 1, Brian. 🤣
18:05 I’d love to see you covering the 2016 Best Supporting Actor race!
Eddie Murphy was Robbed for his Oscar
Interesting, he didn’t include him in this top 10.
Agreed! 💯
Just missing Johnny Depp for Pirates of the Caribbean 1. But great list as always.
Ian McKellen definitely should have won the Oscar such an incredible performance. What a miss
Yes
I think it’s genre bias sadly.
I was so thrilled seeing Ian as your #1.
Johnny Depp is so good in Pirates, yet I don't think it's even a top 3 performance of his. Goes to show how talented the man is.
I don’t know, Denzel’s win for Training Day is one of the most out-of-the-box, downright coolest wins in the Lead Actor category in my opinion. No one else could bring the charisma and sense of false bravado he brings to that iconic performance of Alonzo.
I loved that film!
DENZEL deserved that Oscar. Besides Crowes best role was Insider not Beautiful mind
@@SoulKnightKing No Crowes' best role was Beautiful Mind. He deserved it more than the diversity winner that year.
It was sheer charisma! Denzel played against type and I was in shock the whole film. He deserve the trophy. I wish there could be a tie some years 😂
@@tonyg76 Putting Denzel Washington in the same sentence with the words "diversity win" is a travesty. What a dreadful, mean-spirited statement.
The academy didn't like netflix movies back in the day. Beast of no nation was such a shocking film. So raw and original
I think Denzel winning for Fences was in part giving him an award when he never got a SAG award. Casey Affleck deserved the Oscar for Manchester by the Sea and I think should have swept the entire award season and got the SAG award as well. That’s not to say Denzel was bad in Fences, because he wasn’t, but I do think him not having a SAG award was a factor in him winning that year over Affleck, who was dominating the award season with his incredible performance.
True. Casey all the way!
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
Russell Crowe ruined his chances of a win with his behaviour backstage at BAFTA. Washington was the solid, less problematic choice
Like Polls, a win can be a snapshot of the temperature of the voting body. Sure, in retrospect it is easy to judge performances because they exist in a vacuum - of film.
What we tend to forget are the campaigns - both positive and negative that influence. The momentum or fatigue attached to frontrunners. The prevailing zeitgeist, or political climate. The particular headspace of the Academy during a specific Oscar race.
I agree about Crowe , Harris, Bening , Elba and Davis.
My favorite the year Kidman won would be Salma Hayek.
Not really a fan though of The Usual Suspects.
I definitely don’t have a problem with Swank in Boys Don’t Cry but loved Bening’s performance in American Beauty.
Streep in any number of roles would have made for a better win than The Iron Lady. Davis is more iconic in The Help .
My favorite performances in The Hours are actually Streep and Harris.
You’re awesome! I agree with you almost always.
Kathy Bates was amazing in Primary Colors - Meryl Streep should have won for "Bridges of Madison County", "Doubt", or "The Devil Wears Prada", and not "The Queen"
Meryl Streep won for "The Iron Lady", Helen Mirren won for "The Queen"
Bridges of Madison County is one of my FAVORITES of all time in regards to onscreen romantic films. ❤
TOTALLY agree with you on Annette Benning in American Beauty. I thought she did a better job than Kevin Spacey. And I think I'm in a minority, but I didn't care for Casey Affleck in MbtS. He was moody. Every scene was him brooding. Ugh.
My least favorite Oscar win is Nicole Kidman for The Hours. Renee Zellewegger should have won for Chicago.
I agree completely with that. N I think that Renee shouldn’t have won for cold mountain tbh lol. Xxx
Renee was brilliant in cold mountain though don’t get me wrong lol xx
Renee was my number two after Diane Lane in Unfaithful. Not an Oscar movie, but Lane's performance was next level.
@@jessrosefawkes2721 I don't get why people hate on that performance. She saves that movie IMO.
@@lonellfletcher I never saw Unfaithful so I wouldn’t know. I do like Diane Lane, though.
You can never make me hate Dench in SIL. Everyone reduces it to screentime and never really acknowledge what she did with her eight minutes. In both of her major scenes, she nearly erases everyone else in the room. Beyond commanding. She fully deserved.
Funny how screen time is only an issue for certain actresses
Disagree with Benning. Swank was better i thought she better win the Oscar when i watched the film. I liked American Beauty when it first came out, then on a re-watch. i thought this movie wasn't as good.
The Help is so problematic, I'm sure Viola Davis is relieved she didn't win for that movie.
She's mentioned in several interviews that she regrets taking the role. But at least it was watchable - can't say the same for Iron Lady.
Brother please, as much as i love ed harris in the truman show, no one deserved the win over coburn for affliction. That is one of the best supporting performances in the last 30 years
I agree with you crowe should've won the oscar
An gorgeously epic performance.
I've been meaning to watch Richard Jewell for years
I hope you do get to see "Richard Jewell." It was extremely well done, and, of course, based on a true story. Unfortunately, despite stellar acting and directing by Clint Eastwood the movie faded quickly from the movie theatres. What a shame!
My favorite film directed by Clint Eastwood after "Million Dollar Baby" (2004).
Kidman VS Zellwegger video, please!
Kathy bates nomination for Richard jewell was very left field. The academy didn't just want to nominate jlo for hustlers.
Was jlo really Oscar nomination worthy in Hustlers? Seriously?
No one liked that Cold Mountain win. Still don't understand what she thought she was doing
Meryl deserves to have a 3rd oscar but not for the iron lady. She should have won for doubt instead
I thought you weren’t mentioning people like Ibris Elba since he didn’t get the Oscar’s nomination.
Yeah exactly
Because Idris Elba beat Mark Rylance, the guy that won the Oscar that year.
This year, it’s going to be Paul Giamatti for best actor in “The Holdovers”.
I hope that he wins it.
I thought Paul Giamatti was fine in The Holdovers but Cillian Murphy was absolutely transformational in Oppenheimer.
Please cover the 2015 Best Supporting Actor race! I have always been curious about that one!
Casey Affleck’s performance in Manchester By The Sea was one of the best performances I’ve ever seen on film.
Glenn Close for The Wife.
Washington definitely should have won for Fences.
I completely disagree with you on Juliette Binoche/Lauren Bacall situation. Binoche’s win is actually one of the all timers Oscar win for me. So much well deserved, so shocking. Her performance was one of the things that kept me coming back and thinking about the English Patient. What a heartbreaking and courageous performance! That Binoche/Bacall should’ve been in your « when Academy Awards got it right » video 😉.
Can you make a most dominant win (sweeps) in the history of award seasons ?
The SAGs got it right on awarding Ian McKellen for the first Lord of the Rings Movie. The BAFTAs got a couple of categories right when it comes to that movie unlike the Oscars. The BAFTAs awarded Peter Jackson Best Director for the first Lord of the Rings movie and awarded the first Lord of the Rings film Best Picture. A Beautiful Mind won Best Picture and Best Director instead which are very safe choices. I think Apollo 13 is the Ron Howard movie more deserving of winning Best Picture and Best Director than A Beautiful Mind.
True
The way you said JIM BROADBENT lmao.
Also always thought that Broadbent should have been nominated für "Moulin Rouge" instead of "Iris". Nicole Kidman however should have gotten her (Oscar-)nomination for "The Others" instead of "Moulin Rouge"
I can’t wait for your Oscar retrospective on Mark Rylance vs. Sylvester Stallone (and Idris Elba) for the Best Supporting Actor!
YES THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING IAN MCKELLAN FOR NO1!!!!!
SAG Awards are just better than the oscars #FACT
Nominating Evan Rachel Wood for 13 they got it right
Casey Affleck winning over Denzel is insane. His nomination should have been his win
Question: Isn't voting for the Oscar's already closed when the SAG awards are announced?
Not this year.
Completely disagree with Bening. Swank in Boys Don't Cry is an all timer performance.
Kathy bates is incredible
Casey Affleck's Manchester by the sea is one of the best pieces of acting I've ever seen, an absolutely devastating performance
I highly disagree with your number one pick.
First, I highly recommend you rewatching Iris. Everyone nominated at for that film is highly deserved, and personally would’ve given Winslet the supporting actress Oscar (even though Connelly was locked in as the frontrunner & winner in that race.)
Not only is Broadbent amazing in Iris - he gives a heartbreaking performance with Dench that is much better than Away From Her & The Notebook combined, but as you mentioned, he gave two great performances that year. Much like Kate Winslet, Julie Christie, and Jennifer Lawrence, their acting awards were boosted by two great performances in the same year. And I think Broadbent was the same way and deserved to win that year for either supporting actor performance he gave (though I think Iris was the correct choice.)
That said, I did love this video & agree with several of your choices. Especially Annette Bening for American Beauty and Viola Davis for The Help. Both of those losses still bother and devastate me to this day. I think Bening’s is a career high and defining performance that I’m afraid she’ll never top & thus not win a competitive Oscar. And I really wish Viola Davis would’ve been rightfully nominated in Lead Actress for Fences, because I think she gave a lead performance and would’ve easily swept & beaten Emma Stone for La La Land. I will say that of the actresses nominated in lead that year (with Davis winning supporting), I think Natalie Portman should’ve won for Jackie. Even Portman herself said she felt that was her best performance and won her Oscar for that film (even though Black Swan is one of my favorite films & best actress performances and wins of all time.) apologies for all these rants; but I think Portman should have 3 Oscar’s - the first for Closer, her win for Black Swan, and the third for Jackie.
I clearly love your channel & your subjects & videos, and I’m glad to have somewhere to comment/express all this. Especially since iMDB got rid of their message boards - anyone else miss those?!
Ugh Hillary Swank did not deserve any of her Oscars
Jim Broadbent won the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor for Moulin Rouge instead of Iris. Haven’t seen Iris, but it’s hard to imagine Broadbent’s performance in Iris is better than Ian Mckellen’s timeless performance as Gandalf in the first Lord of the Rings film. Another great supporting actor performance from a fantasy film that year is Alan Rickman as Professor Snape in the first Harry Potter film who wasn’t even nominated. Sucks Alan Rickman never gotten an Oscar nomination in his career.
All these are debatable except Annette. I love her and that performance but to suggest that over Hillary swank. No way. No way no how.
Still to these days I don't understand how on earth Russell Crowe didn't win for A beautiful mind
O comeon, Casey Affleck was the best actor of the lot
Yea I strongly disagree with the Denzel takes. Crowe was incredible in A Beautiful Mind, but I think Denzel is insanely good and very memorable in Training Day as well. And obviously I prefer Denzel to Affleck as a person and an actor, but Affleck’s performance is comfortably the best out of all best actor winners from the 2010s imo
Did the SAG trophy change from when Lauren Bacall won in 1997?
No. That photo is from her honorary award.
You know, performances can be fantastic, but that doesn't make a movie
Personally Denzel performance in Training Day has aged very well! Such an out of the box and broad performance! It’s interesting because Training Day only received 2 Oscar nominations that ceremony, lead actor & supporting actor. That’s an all timer win for me!!
Lauren Bacall was robbed of an Oscar imo.
Bacall vs Binoche race is not even a race, since it was 100% assuredness Bacall is going to win; all the Binoche afterglow came from there later on - she once again triumphed over Bacall at Bafta, which was always past Oscar, and she won Silver Bear in Berlin, too, in the interim, that also perhaps added some visibility to her
Cold Mountain was so bad and imo all the acting was terrible - sorry 😞
You totally lost me at Denzel over Casey OMG
Many Winners at SAG lose out to a Performance in a Harvey Weinstein Movie, (Even though he just mention Zellweger for Chicago)
Some of the SAG winners on this list is the case including Lauren Bacall, Kathy Bates and Viola Davis.
Agree:
- Denzel Washington, Fences.
- Kathy Bates, Primary Colors.
- Annette Bening, American Beauty.
- Viola Davis, The Help.
You are right. I am giving you shit. Washington no way deserved the Oscar for his unsympathetic performance in Fences. I went to see this movie with several friends and we all felt nothing from Washington, but loved Davis. Washington's performance was NOT nuanced to any of us. We didn't like him at the beginning of the film, nor did our opinion change by the end of the film. He didn't get into the sympathetic side of the character and left all of us cold. It surprises me you feel so strongly about his performance.
I found it to be the same Denzel of the past, just huffing and puffing as an alpha male
10:34 Casey Affleck was perfect, Denzel just ok.
I am from the future, he said he was wrong with this decision and Affleck had the best Best Actor performance in the 2010s.
Right..... watched your video with ok, no, whatever, not right, you're very right..... etc. But you lost me when you said Annette Bening should have won over Hilary Swank in Boys Don't Cry. Just no. She should have won for The Grifters, but Anjelica Huston stole the show.
fine I'll watch lord of the rings again
ه Nicole kidman
In the hours😍😍😍👏
Was fantastic
Iam with oscar choice.
Iam against sag choice combletaly.
Necole kidman😍

Thank you brian💛⚘💛
You are so cute Brian, I may be in love...your videos are great as well.
You make gteat contemt videos.
Great list. I’m still hoping and praying Viola gets her Lead Actress Oscar one day. I was rooting for Michelle Williams for Manchester in Supporting that year.
Viola was so overrated in Fences and it was a lazy award.
Not overrated at all. She gave the best performance in that category and it was never even close.
I'm hoping for Emma stone win at Sag and oscar
Idk i think Denzel deserved winning for The Training Day, i felt he was over acting in Fences whereas Affleck literally became his character
No way! Casey Affleck is head and shoulders above Denzel Washington that year!
Casey all the way!
Casey Affleck is so forgettable..I did not even remember that he was an Oscar winner if you didn't bring him name up...Mediocre acting in Manchester by the Sea
Fences is a bad movie.
Its basically a stage play put on film. Viola over acting.
Cry-ola Davis!
Speaking of Kathy Bates, she should have not only been nominated but won for Delores Claiborne.
Ed Harris and the Elusive Oscar video?
Hoping for the Ian Mckellen and the elusive Oscar video now 🤞
Yes please 🙏
Willem Dafoe and the Elusive Oscar as well.
