I thought I would do another one of these threads because I enjoy these a lot. So out of his nominations which ones would you award hi? And would you give him any other nominations or wins?

For me I would not give him any wins from his nominations. I would however have nominated him for American Psycho, The Machinist and I would have given him the win for American Psycho because he was beyond brilliant in that film.

Denying him a nom for Vice is criminal.

I’d give him all his current nominations, plus ones for Ford v Ferrari, American Psycho, and The Machinist, but no wins yet. He, for me, has yet to be the best in his category.

Not to be exaggerated but he is a three-time winner for me.

The Fighter
Vice
Ford v Ferrari

Realistically, Bale could be a two-time Academy Award Winner by now

The Fighter

Vice

The Academy could have definitely voted to give Bale his second rather than giving Rami his first. Nothing can convince me that Rami gave the better performance objectively.

*American Psycho

American Hustle

He could have been nominated in 2001, maybe take the slot of Ed Harris to be along with Crowe, Hanks, Bardem and Rush but Crowe would still win that year.

I also wouldn’t have nominated him for The Big Short. Would have given that nom to Steve Carrell from that cast instead.

Nah, according to the general consensus, Bradley Cooper for A Star is Born feels the one who should have won.

I was very impressed with Bradley Cooper in A Star Is Born and would have preferred him over any of the other nominees.

Are y’all okay?

Watched American Psycho last night. He’s a true Artist. Equivalent to Blanchett, really.

I think American Psycho should be his nomination and his win. I’m not crazy about any of his others. I guess his win wasn’t the worst (that was a weak Supporting Actor year).

Vice is one of the worst films of all time and the acting in it is horrible

For some reason, I do not care for Christian Bale. It is hard for me to not think about how much of a jackass he has acted towards set and crew in the past. For all I know that there are probably a lot of other actors that have acted an ass towards set and crew.

It is important to treat everyone with respect regardless if you are in front or behind the camera because it is a team effort.
