Um, yes. The academy voters are biased towards the people who they think should win; that's why they win.

 

Um the academy is a bunch of sychophants and they award stuff to their friends and whoever can buy the awards.   So get off your high horse there Tree.

Dev and Daisy getting that sexy sax tune.

[CoolioD1]

he's fought a russian and cancer, but you know who rocky needs to really fight to finally win? a bear.

Daisy is a breath of fresh air.

[Blankments]

Rylance is on my blacklist now. I refuse to watch anymore movies of his for this gross outrage.

[4815162342]

I'll be honest. Rylance was the best of the 5 nominees, and I loved the idea of Stalloscar.

 

But the best option wasn't even nominated. We missed our time to meet god.

[Ethan Hunt]

Rylance was barley even in Bridge of Spies and yeah he was really good but... C'mon

I was predicting Rylance to win, was going to put money on it but didn't think the 3/1 odds were really worth it, thought my money should go elsewhere. Anyway I'm pleased Rylance won, as he was not just the best in the category, but he hasn't had much of a film career, whereas Stallone has had a long, successful career and doesn't really need the recognition.

Rocky is a legend in the twilight of his career having stallone win for his preformance that carries the movie ,better than rylance he is the movie 15 min, and his best role in decades is one of the biggest snub in recent years

[baumer]

I realize these awards mean nothing in the grand scheme of things but it's just very disappointing that he lost.

So when an actor most people don't know of wins, it's because he bought the award and/or they only handed it to him because he's their friend.

 

But if Stallone had won, the award is legit?
