Did Django Get Robbed?
Recently at the Academy Awards, there were awards handed out left and right. Django was nominated for four awards and brought home two, but the kicker is that Jamie Foxx wasn't holding one. Neither was Kerry Washington or Samuel L. Jackson. I don't know if any of you saw Django, but it was amazing. Jamie Foxx finally did his thing on the big screen. Probably one of his best movies since Ray. Foxx portrayed the slave turned bounty hunter who teams up with a white man to track and capture American's most wanted. Samuel L also delivered a great performance (carrying the movie, in my opinion) as a house slave who has it out for Foxx from the jump. Definitely a winner for the Royale crew. But again, they all went home empty handed. So that raises the question, whats going on with the Oscars? The movie was good enough to get Tarantino best screenplay. So that means it was the best script, but none of the black actors won an Oscar? Hmmm, and Christopher Waltz (who plays Foxx's white partner) won best supporting actor. How come our boys didn't bring home the gold? The movie was clearly good enough. Tell us what your thoughts on about whether or not Django deserved more!
