Jim Carrey being snubbed from the Oscars~~*RainForest*~~

OK, this is a rather arngy post from me :)

You all know I LOVE Jim Carrey right? Now ya do, well I was at JCO (JimCarreyOnline) and I was watching video clips. One of them happened to be a clip from the Oscars (mind you it was after "The Truman Show" had been released) And he was their presenting.

He started talking about how it doesn't matter if you win the award or not just being nominated is an achievement, well he went into the fake act of crying after saying "Just being Nom---" I was thinking, "Wait a minute! I thought he was nominated for The Truman Show before!"

Well I looked it up, I have found out that Jim Carrey has NEVER been nominated for ANYTHING at ALL for the Oscars! Apparently every thought he over acted in "Dumb and Dumber" and "Ace Ventura". I always thought that *if* he did overact in "Ace Ventura" that it was a great compliment to the movie.

Apparently the people who work for the Oscar's must think he has to make up for those performances. He has now acted in two GREAT movies, "The Truman Show" and "Man On the Moon".

Now for "Man On the Moon" And Andy Kaufmann must have been a VERY hard role to portray, he was such a complicated man and yet Jim pulled it off perfectly.

In my search to find out if Jim has ever been nominated for an Oscar (before I knew he wasn't nominated for ANYTHING) all I found were a ton of web-sites/ pages pissed off about all the Oscar snubs he has been receiving.

Jim Carrey has won two Golden Globes for best actor two years in a row, now mainly it's a given that any actor/movie who wins at the Golden Globes will most definitely be nominated for the Oscars, the only exception? Jim Carrey.

I think that a man, who dropped out of High School in 9th grade to help his poor family with money, a man who LIVED in a CAR for god sakes, and a man who was booed off the stage at his first stand-up performance, deserves an Oscar.

This man has withstood a lifetime of hardship's, with his dad dying in 1994 and his mother dying in 1991. He has had two divorces, and he has a kid. This man is probably one of the greatest actor's of ALL time. I truly believe he deserves an Oscar.

Now, with the Majestic out, I have heard plenty of people talking about how this WILL be the movie Jim will finally get nominated (if not win) for an Oscar, I am about ready to go to the people who decide who the nominees are and yell at them till their dang heads fall off.





maybe it wasnt so tiny, but whatever works.

Date: 1/25/2002 8:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 5301    ...Jim Carrey is one of the greatest actors of all time??? With regard to "ALL TIME", are we referring to the last fifteen years?  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:40:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    All time is All time, it doesnt matter when they started, but in my opinion he is one of the greatest, so yes in the last 15 years and in ALL time. (in my opinion)  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:44:00 PM  From Authorid: 5301    ...now don't get me wrong, I have always liked Jim Carrey's acting abilities and believe him to be highly talented. He has time to explore his talents and, in time, may likely be regarded as one of the great actors.  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:45:00 PM  From Authorid: 49101    He is good, the Ace Ventura Movies are among my faves'...MissC.  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:45:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    Hekler you don't understand do you? I said IN MY Opinion (and perhaps in many others) he is one of the greatest, im not saying every has to agree, now please dont turn this into a debate  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 5301    ...I'm just offering MY opinion. Isn't this what you were looking for when you posted this or were you hoping that everyone would agree with you? I'm not debating, I merely differ in my opinion.  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:51:00 PM  From Authorid: 18516    He's never been nominated for anything? I usually see him on the MTV movie awards and they love him! As for being nominated for an oscar..I didn't know that.  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:51:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    no,I wasnt looking for anyone to agree, I was just looking for a place were I could let off some steams, I guess I was wrong to come here  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:55:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    no, hes won awards, what I meant is hes never been nominated for ANYTHIng in the oscars, ill edit that  
Date: 1/25/2002 8:59:00 PM  From Authorid: 18516    Oh just the oscars? hmm that's strange he's been in ALOT of movies and never won an oscar. I think the oscars are fixed.  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:00:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    the oscar people are just plain mean!!! LOL!  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:03:00 PM  From Authorid: 28193    I agree with you, that Jim Carrey is a good actor, so just ignore the ones that don't agree!! He was fantastic in "Man On The Moon." In fact I've liked all of his work, but that movie was exceptional. Thanks.~Golden Taxi.  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 45800    How do you know he played Andy Kaufman perfectly? Do you know him? But I agree that Jim Carrey is a great actor  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:07:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    The reviews people have given, believe me I have done my research and everyone has been saying he portrayed it as best (if not prefectly although nothing is perfect) as possible  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 6050    I haven't seen the Man on the moon movie yet..but, as far as previews..He did do a pretty great portrayal...I used to watch Taxi and what not..He convinced many ppl who have spent years around the real Andy..can't get any better than that People say Majestic is his first real serious role..maybe for the theatre..but, i've seen him in another movie on television..about a disfunctional family..He's always been versatile...and how come when they mention movies..how come they never bring up OnceBitten? where he gets seduced by a very vampirish lauren hutton..I dunno..i've always loved his work..lol@dumb&dumber..Hilarious!!  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:50:00 PM  From Authorid: 27046    I have to say that if you find him funny then naturally you are going to like him. I myself don't find him to be funny at all, I think more or less he acts like an idiot, but that is just my opinion....watching him for me is like watching beavis and butthead...  
Date: 1/25/2002 9:58:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15338    DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY!!!OMG!! I was just talking about that with my dad! That was a skit on "In Living Color" A comedy show, and that was my FAVORITE thing!! LOL
