Well, that's the way the Oscars work. He should have waited until he had the big-budget hit (Iron Man) and then made Chaplin. He would then win the Oscar in a landslide.

Yet Pacino's "Hoo ah!" blind twatbag won. Grrrrrrrr
Case in point:
The Oscars are lame in many ways. But they do have a horrible knack for passing over actors/directors when they deserve it, then coming back and essentially giving them a "lifetime achievement" vote for best actor/director/movie/etc. later on for lesser performances and films in order to make up for the gaff. Happened with Scorsese for sure, and Pacino there. I want to say they did it for the Coens, but honestly, they deserved it for No Country (they just deserved it more for Fargo).
It's not often than an American actor can pull off a good British accent. Much less the not one, not two, but three different ones RDJ has in CHAPLIN. Yet Pacino's "Hoo ah!" blind twatbag won. Grrrrrrrr. F! that still pisses me off 17 years later.
And like Return of the King winning pretty much for the entire LOTR trillogy even though it probably wasn't the best of the 3 .
maybe in the minority here but I Like Two Towers the best, but I'm on pure uncut Sheen so you probably don't want to listen to me.
We can't even hear you.
You speak in a language and at a frquency beyond the capacity of our puny brains. If we were even able to hear, we'd be reduced to quivering, drooling masses of lobotomized meat.
We are lesser beings.
