@@kenbolor2076 the cable guy was a bomb when it came out so no and nothing carrey has done has been oscar worthy. Don't get me wrong I like alot of his movies(not him he himself is a typical im better then you elite type) he just hasnt made any role his own besides Ace ventura and The Mask.
@@borderlineXI R Lee Ermey Plays one single role he´s good in it but it is only one role nontheless buscemi had loads of good roles in Reservoir dogs in boardwalk empire in Fargo in his newest role as god in Miracle Workers great Show great cast he´s vrsitile and just a good Actor thats the difference
Really? Ermey was excellent in The Boys in Company C, Siege of Firebase Gloria, Mississippi Burning, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, and that's just to name a few!
@@borderlineXI yeah but that´s all kinda a Variation of the shouting, angry Military/Police guy like i said he Plays this character type very good but that does not necessaryly mean that it´s enough for an Oscar compared with someone like buscemi who really delivered in a lot of roles in lots of great movies
Oscar is really stupid. Jim Carrey should have at least been nomimated for Best Actor for The Truman Show and Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind....
Danny Flanagan No, it wasn't. He should have been nominated for DIE HARD and DOGMA at the very least...two very different roles, by the way. Nearly all of his roles were different from each other.
@@Kermit_T_Frog I'd tend to agree about Carrey, but of course that's just me, and 1,000,000 Ace Ventura /The Mask fans can't be wrong, right? As for Williams, I always felt that he spent way too much time trying to be hilarious and not enough being dramatic. Most of "What Dreams May Come", "The Fisher King" and some of "World According to Garp" let us see much more of his range, and I genuinely liked that.
The fact John Goodman hasn't even been nominated for an Oscar yet Jennifer Lawrence has multiple wins/nominations is a pretty amusing look into modern American cinema.
+JurassicGodzillaFan Same with Alan Rickman. It's such a shame they both weren't ever nominated and now they have sadly passed. R.I.P. Alan Rickman & Christopher Lee.
Val Kilmer! He not only should have been nominated, but should've have won for his performance as Doc Holliday in Tombstone alone. Also, The Doors, Heat, etc.
Two problems in this comments section: 1. People suggesting Leo when the the title CLEARLY says "Actors not NOMINATED for an Oscar" (Now he is also not qualified for "Actors who have never won an Oscar" anymore) 2. People criticizing Marilyn Monroe without knowing that the film industry never took her seriously because of her looks. Lee Strasberg considered her his second-best student at Actors Studio, so she clearly had potentials
StrasbergProtégé exactly and with Marilyn she mainly pioneered a new acting technique with female film stars. She combined comedy, method acting and sexuality that actresses like Julia Roberts, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lawrence, and Angelina Jolie
I read quite a while back, that Strasberg proclaimed her the greatest living actress after watching her perform at The Actors Studio. And director, Billy Wilder said she was greater than Garbo. Olivier didn't like her. Part of it was that she wouldn't bow down to him, so to speak. You see, at that period of time, he was considered the greatest actor of all time, so why didn't Monroe treat him like the acting God; as he was widely revered.
Snidebark OMG totally...those piercing, sometimes menacing, blue eyes of his. When he is given the right role to play with the right script, experiencing his acting can be a very intense one indeed.
Edward G. Robinson, Sterling Hayden, Alain Delon, Peter Lorre, Joseph Cotten, Mads Mikkelsen, Harry Dean Stanton, Yves Montand, Takashi Shimura, Lino Ventura, Jean-Paul Belmondo. So many great actors who were never nominated...
Edward G never got nominated? Wow, never knew that, he was one of the great early character actors. Also Peter Lorre should've won an Oscar for M which is a brilliant film where he plays a child murderer. However it was a German production and maybe they didn't do foreign films when the Oscars first started.
Joseph Cotten may hold the record for most Oscar worthy performances without a single nomination. Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons, Shadow of a Doubt, The Third Man, Portrait of Jennie, Under Capricorn, Niagara, Gaslight, etc., and no nominations.
Robert Kirkendall, you just named my favourite actor. Miss Jennifer Jones and Joseph Cotton had great chemistry in Love Letters and Portrait of Jennie. You would think those two were really in love.
@@amberisafarmer They are rather old movies, most of them are from the 1940s. The most recent movie on this list is Niagara, which came out in 1953, and also starred Marylin Monroe.
Martin Sheen should've gotten a nomination way back in '73 for Badlands. Him and Sissy Spacek give amazingly accurate deadpan performances in that one.
He should have got an academy award for his portrayal of pennywise in the 1990 adaptation of Stephen King's "It". I know grown people who've never seen the movie as a child, only as an adult, who have nightmares about Pennywise. His performance as the film's antagonist took this film, which otherwise would have been lackluster and very forgettable, and made it into something unforgettable and terrifying.
Leo Peridot Actually I’ve never seen those. Only playing hero characters. First saw him in My Brilliant Career. Fell in love with him and Judy Davis immediately.
Agreed I was just thinking that watching Angels and Demons. Small roll for him but he has done far greater work beyond that. Being a good actor is like being a good teacher. You got to lure them in. I had this great animation history teacher in college. Im not sure if it was his age, or the way he talked, or his background, but he made me want to listen. Actors should have that. It's like Mega mind said, "Presentation."
When you consider that great men like Christopher Lee and Alan Rickman have already passed away, I hope the Academy regrets never having recognized them. Too late for it now 😔
+JPproductions32 I'm not sure about No. 1, but it's a crime that he won the best actor (drama) at the golden globes for the Truman Show and wasn't even nominated. He won the DRAMA actor award! Not the comedy/musical bullshit, yet not even a nomination by the academy. To be honest though it's hard to believe the Truman show didn't win more of everything. While we're on the Truman show; what about Peter Weir the director? I mean the academy loves giving sympathy awards, but the director who restarted the Australian film industry (Mad Max would not have happened without him) with picnic at hanging rock, and went on to do Dead Poets Society AND the Truman show doesn't get anything? I mean he's honestly the most overlooked director, and now his career's wound down so he can't get nominated! Sorry this reply started about Jim Carrey and turned into something else, just got me annoyed as an Australian. Really, before Peter Weir directed picnic at hanging rock in '73, an Australian film being good or existing at all was ridiculously uncommon. And we were the first country to make a proper feature length film (about Ned Kelly if you want to look it up), yet we don't get much mention in film history. Apart from actors we don't get much attention from the academy. But I'm still going to keep my fingers crossed for Fury Road and George Miller, to at least sweep the technical awards next week, really it should get best picture or director. By the way Braveheart doesn't count as an Aussie director (unless we feel like saying Mel Gibson is Australian in a desperate attempt to have some kind of Oscar's pride, but honestly nobody wants him now). Again sorry I had to ramble and rage off topic (kind of), I had to vent those thoughts some time.
What about Ray Liotta, Bruce Willis, Cillian Murphy, Paul Dano, Tom Sizemore, Giovani Ribisi, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Ben Mendolsohn, Mads Mikkelson, Miles Teller, Shia Labeof, Robert Pattinson, Robin Wright, Thandie Newton abd Guy Pearce.
Liotta hasn't been nominated????? Gleeson and Mikkelsen definitely deserve to win at least for supporting roles. Dano, Ribisi and Murphy are overlooked too.
for sure, this dude is underrated as well, just saw the oscar nominations 2018 and the chick who announce the nominations beside him XD was awful, she forgot almost every line and make mistakes the whole time with the name of the nominees, Mr Serkis performance was flawless, dude"s a total pro.
Andy Serkis will get some sort of special Oscar in his lifetime as motion capture acting is a acting format that the Academy does not directly award, but he became the undisputed master of the art form and thru it has created a diverse set of characters and always delivers an outstanding performance.
Big John Goodman, is fabulous in anything he is in , and he can do it all ..... super funny in ,The Big Lebowski - brilliant as the justice seeking Judge in , The Jack Bull
Steve Buscemi looks like Peter Lorre(The man speaking in the movie reference 'The Maltese Falcon' near the end)~ And R.I.P Raul Julia. You are missed~ (You also Alan Rickman and David Bowie)
ALE280290 So you should know that Donald Sutherland>Alan Rickman. That's a fact, considering the sheer number of great performances he's given compared to Alan Rickman. I'm not saying Alaln Rickamn isn't great but Donald Sutherland has had a ton of great performances.
Actually, that was the one that stood out to me as like...really? I've never been that impressed. He's ok. But i would have put Alan Rickman, Ray Liotta, and Bruce Willis ahead of him for sure...if not many more.
Totally agree with John Goodman, I love pretty much every performance he gives. I'm also happy that you weren't including Bruce Willis because he plays the exact same character in every damn movie, it's just getting annoying at this point.
It wasn't until I saw "The Misfits" that I appreciated Marylin Monroe as an true actor - which wasn't mentioned. Her role as Roslyn was truly brilliant, and cast all of her previous work in a new light for me.
Alan Rickman should be in the list and both he and Ewan McGregor bloody deserve Oscars. So does Sam Neill, and Hugo Weaving. John Travolta, Eric Bana , Sean Bean, Viggo Mortensen and the incredibly talented Michael Gambon deserve recognition too. At the very least, nominations.
Ewan McGregor? Trainspotting, Moulin Rouge, Black Hawk Down, Beginners, The Impossible and hell, even his performances in the Star Wars prequels are good enough to be warranted a nomination. I can see some not seeing the Star Wars films getting nominated, but hey Alec Guinness was nominated for the original Star Wars and McGregor gave more depth to the character to make us like him more than we even did before, as well as making us believe his Obi-Wan and Guinness' Obi-Wan were one in the same all the while making the character his own.
Ewan McGregor is an amazing actor! I have seen so many of his films. His performance in Trainspotting is incredible and so his his performance in Moulin Rouge. ❤️
Very under-rated comment my friend, you should have at least 5 thousand likes! I feel Val Kilmer should have won the Oscar for his portrayal of Jim Morrison
I like Stewart but I can't say he's ever stood out in any of his films. I've seen him do great tv work and of course on stage, but in film has he ever been superb enough to deem supposedly worthy of a nomination?
Rickman, Monroe, Johansson, Buscemi, Rockwell, Carrey, Bacon, Sutherland, Goodman . . . Whenever I think of Goodman I think "O, Brother Where Art Thou?" Peter Lorre! My gawd, I love that guy. I think Johansson should have got the Oscar for that one line in the MCU movie----the one where she says "She's not alone." All of these actors. So much talent, so little recognition. But we know, don't we?
+Mia Bostic Alan Rickman and Christopher Lee were too. They were the perfect choices for all of the characters in their movies. Now they will never get one.
Because his breakout was Die Hard, and the Academy has a tendency to look down on action movies and their stars. Example - someone once said Sigourney Weaver's performances in the Alien movies are fantastic, and an Academy member responded, "Sigourney Weaver's? She's just an action star."
top 10 undeserved razzie nominations: -stanley kubrick for "worst director" for "the shining" -tom cruise for "worst actor" for "war of the worlds" -jim carrey for "worst new star" for all his movies in 1994
jose eduardo hurtado Hayden Christensen winning two Razzies for Anakin Skywalker, especially in 2002 when we had an unfunny Eddie Murphy in Pluto Nash.
Glad you included Kevin Bacon, albeit for “honorable mention “. I would’ve also included Jamie Lee Curtis. Her most notable roles are either comedy or horror, which is prob why she’s never gotten the Oscar nom. Maybe if she gets a good dramatic role?
How Kevin Bacon never ran for best actor in “Murder In The First” was ridiculous!!! He should of won too!!! Also Robert Shaw was never nominated for best supporting actor in “Jaws” and he made that movie great!!!
Been looking for this comment, Robert Shaw in Jaws still sends shivers down by spine. Incredible performance, just simply incredible. Kevin Bacon should have got an Oscar nomination for The Woodsman, criminally underrated performance.
