Don't think I'd recognise any of these if they passed me in the street.

Have movie stars become less well known or do the oscars go for more obscure films as a rule now?


Well Eddie Redmayne is a relatively new actor and Patricia Arquette wouldn't be too well known but surely you'd recognise Julianne Moore and JK Simmons.

Certainly seems that way Shedite. Appears to have gone the way of the fa cup (albeit a better year this year)! Boring boring Oscars.

I watched Birdman the other week, turned it off. Rubbish it was.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.
na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na.

i wouldn't know what arquette or simmons look like tbh. The same goes for redmayne.

I'm not saying they're not worthy winners it's just i couldn't give a fúck.

Delighted Birdman did so well Clap

Redmayne and Simmons well deserve their Oscars, haven't seen Boyhood or Still Alice to judge the actresses but from what I saw Rosamund Pike and Emma Stone were the stand outs!

Birdman would want to be seriously good to have beaten boyhood, have only met one person who liked it though, will give it a look

Best thing about Oz back in the day!
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Just had a google, Julainna Moore looks familiar alright, but looking at her filmography, Jurassic Park is probably the only thing I've seen. Maybe I'm being ignorant but she doesn't seem as famous as people like Jennifer Lawrence, Meryl Streep, Natalie Portman, Sandra Bullock, Kate Winslet etc

JK Simmons looks to be most famous for Law and Order yeah? He seems to have a fairly long filmography in movies (a few of which I've seen) but was he fairly minor roles?

Julianne Moore is one of the best actresses around and has been in some huge films over the last 10-15 years.

JK Simmons was in Oz and imo the best character in it.He has most played minor roles but has had some very good roles and been in a few huge hits.
