Cool Should have won the Oscar...

Which movies/performances should have won the Oscar but weren't even nominated?

(Several Gary Oldman performances come to mind for me. He should have won for Leon: The Professional, True Romance, Dracula, and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, at the very least. Just my two cents.)

Not sure his performance in Dracula was Oscar worthy. He was good..but not 'Oscar' good.

The Best Picture race of '94 always comes to mind. Pulp Fiction, Shawshank Redemption, Quiz Show...and you give it to Forrest Gump? Yikes.

Also, as much as I love Dances With Wolves, no way that should have won over Goodfellas.

I agree with you. Haven't seen Quiz Show, but Forrest Gump is a turd compared to Shawshank and Pulp Fiction....

Goodfellas > Dances with Wolves too!



I think Ordinary People is a good movie too, but how does Raging Bull not when best picture and director????
