It’s too bad brad Pitt did not win. Like I said they are blocking his and Angie’s win cause they don’t want them to proclaim their respect for each other. Hollywood and the those awards are full of crap. They give awards to people they like and not to those who deserve it.

George Clooney winning over Michael Fassbender? Wow. just wow. hopefully GG or Oscars will grow a brain.
Same goes with Viola Davis and Michelle Williams
I don’t get these awards. All the critics were gushing about Leo D’s performance in J Edgar. They were all sayingLeo is going to be the frontrunner winning all the awards blah blah blah. Then they turn around and give the freaking critics choice best actor to George Clooney who in my opinion is the biggest ass kisser in hollywood! I’m sorry Leo that you keep getting over looked by these over paid actors who are just there for the attention. You’ll always be BEST ACTOR in my book!
my heart broke that Leo didn’t win even tho I figured that Clooney is gonna win. I’m still rooting for Leo tho
Hopefully Golden Globes
@Dd: I’m sorry but Brad and Angie? Um they are just there to gain viewers, sorry to say. I don’t take either of them seriously. If Leo lost to Brad I would even be more pissed than I am that he lost to George Clooney. They are both ass kissers in Hollywood who make mediocure films.
so sad to see leo snubbed again but if someone else had to win, i’m glad it was clooney.
This is B U L L S H I T Michael Fassbender or Leo where so much better than bluddy clooney
@k: It should have been Leo. The man never gets any credit. Its such a shame :-(
Well all the respected people in the film industry take Brad and Angie seriously so I doubt they care what an anonymous troll says. Angie was not nominated and she was not there so I don’t know how she can be a ass kisser.
Brad gave his best performances ever in Moneyball and TOL. Too bad Malick made TOL too obtuse for people to like which is a shame.
Have not seen Descendants or J.Edgar so no opinion there but I like both Leo and Clooney as actors.
Michelle Williams deserves to win any best actress award this year. Viola Davis is wonderful, but Michelle was incredible as Marilyn.
yes, happy for George and Viola they so deserve to win! congrats to all!
Yum. Can’t wait for the Golden Globes. Get to see all my hotties, Leo, George, Brad and JGL!
Fassbender or DiCaprio should have won that without question, they gave it to the guy who is a Hollywood brownnoser.
Brad and George are stealing awards from more worthy actors
@RachelSun: I wasn’t calling Angie an ass kisser. I was saying that George Clooney was.

Leo looks like a wax figure.. perfect coloring, stiff and blank stare.
The bouncing ball goes back and forth again every year during the award season. Leo is consistently the only actor we all know WON’T win an award. Why he keeps showing up to these things is beyond me. These awards are like political campaigns. George Clooney is for some reason Hollywood’s liberal elite favorite kid. When he wins it’s a political statement that Hollywood has his back. The GG winner’s list will probably alternate between Pitt winning. But poor Leo not.
i saw The Artist and i loved it. so i’m not unhappy the critics chose it as best picture. Best actor i was kind of hoping would go to Michael Fassbander for Shame. i’m more than happy best actress went to Viola Davis. now the question is what will nominated for Oscars and then who will win.
Michael Fassbender should have won BEST ACTOR not that kiss a$$ George Clooney no wonder he didn’t show up to be humiliated like that.
SHAME on you blind Hollywood people !
It’s a sad thing indeed when these so called judges of these award show doesn’t recognized real talent when it’s in front of them,Clooney and his crocodile tears over Leonardo Di Carpio or Brad Pitt always smirking act over Mr.Leo Di Carpio,please ,they might as well call all the award show TCA award,because that is where these two belong and can only win.
C’mon the man has been acting since he was a child ,he was a child movie actor that turn into one of most respected movie actor of our time,he can actually act with substance,he can actually become whoever he was playing and believed it too ,he’s like an english actor.While these two mediocre actor only became famous ,Brad, from being a w***e and a thief in Thelma and Loise and his biggest accomplishment is from hooking up with lesbian blood drinking woman,While Clooney got famous from hooking up with he /she woman.People don’t by it anymore that these two can actually be nominate let alone win something,give it to deserving people this time.
LEO is not liked in Hollywood. He’s aloof, snobbish and thumbs his nose at his fellow actors. He only makes an appearance when he’s nominated. Clooney knows how to play the Hwood game, and that’s why he’ll keep on winning and Leo will keep on losing. In this game, it’s not just about kissing azz, but whose azz you kiss.
Leo should have won! Anyway, he looks great! So we’ll have to wait for the GG….
