Tweetweek: ABBA in a White Room, Carrie Gifs, 1999 Supporting Actress

In today's tweetweek, the 1999 supporting actress race, mindy project A+ joke, ABBA, Lindsay Lohan's new accent, and the last few days of political anxiety (in this phase at least). It's all after the jump...

 

 

 

POLITICAL - LAST WEEK OF THE CURRENT CRAZY! 
with a little movie / tv joking to ease the pain

Toni Collette is awesome and a brilliant actress, but that 1999 Supporting Actress Oscar should have gone to soon-to-be birthday girl Chloe Sevigny.

Or they could at least split it in half and share it. ;)

@Mike agree!

Too bad it's written in capital letters but the last tweet is the best.

I've never seen Girl Interrupted--strangely that's a movie nobody ever talks about.

November 4, 2016 | Unregistered Commenterbrookesboy

PS I'd sit 4 between Adele and Gaga; second voice--6 between Adele and Taylor

November 4, 2016 | Unregistered Commenterbrookesboy

Would definitely sit between Beyonce and Adele- since they have mutual respect for each other, as well as the two front runners for Grammy's Album of the Year in February.

N YES! Toni Collette should've won that just for the car scene, alone.

I remember everything about Toni Collette's performance and remember not a thing about Angelina Jolie's.

I wouldn't sit between any of those women. Unless I'm being paid in blow-jobs and be allowed to wear t-shirts of Wendy O. Williams and remind them that as highly-paid they are. They will never be Wendy and if she was alive, she'd pretty much destroy them. For those who have no idea who I'm talking about...... watch and learn. None of these bitches hold a candle to Wendy.

The Jessica Chastain tweet upsets me. Mainly because I want to marry Jessica Chastain.

November 4, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterEz

Chastain's new guy is okay, but I think Francisco Lachowski beats him hands down; being a genetic masterpiece, a perfect perfect, et al, certainly helps!

Seat 5 gets to pass the notes from Rihanna to Beyonce and back, so that's the seat for me.

And everyone knows Angelina Jolie's Oscar belongs to Catherine Keener.

I think it's safe to say that any of the 4 other nominees and many many non-nominees were more deserving than Angelina Jolie of that Oscar. Quite frankly I have never enjoyed an Angelina Jolie performance and I have never seen in my lifetime a movie star rise purely on the basis of celebrity appeal.

November 5, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterTony T

I liked all of the '99 supporting actress performances. Perhaps Angelina Jolie wasn't the best, but she was still very good. She really did steal that movie. Her win never bugged me.

November 5, 2016 | Unregistered Commentercash

Cash, I agree. While I preferred Toni Collette for the win, Angelina Jolie was actually my second pick. Her movie star performance stole the film, and made Winona's performance looked forced in the process.

"I have never seen in my lifetime a movie star rise purely on the basis of celebrity appeal."

Jennifer Lawrence?

Thought Angelina Jolie was dreadful in Girl, Interrupted...lots of empty emotion with little subtlety or depth. Desperately needed director to modulate. Recall an Oscar voter saying at the time that he was voting for her because she's "Hollywood royalty."

November 5, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterMike

well.. she was playing a character who was empty inside- as explicitly mentioned by Winona's character.

Nevertheless, I think her best performance was in Changeling.

November 5, 2016 | Unregistered CommenterMiguel

cash -- same. the whole lineup was strong and that there were 5 other awesome women outside that list says a lot about 1999 in general
