NAACP nominations

How sad is the state of black cinema that the NAACP nominations (http://tinyurl.com/y8busue) include:

Idris Elba for Obsessed
Jamie Foxx for Law Abiding Citizen
Anika Noni Rose for The Princess and the Frog (it's a cartoon!)
Chiwetel Ejiofor for 2012
Danny Glover for 2012

and

Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side!

Ridiculous. The only worthy nominee is Anthony Mackie for his great performance in The Hurt Locker. I'm going easy on Invictus because it's so bland, but it doesn't deserve anything either.

I'd laugh, but really.. it's depressing. When you're going to a Roland Emmerich movie for acting nominations, you're really scraping the bottom of the barrel.


Mood: Surprised

Word. Sandra Bullock getting a nom is the most sad part of it. Playing an all-too perfect southern christian white lady taking care of a stupid, talentless black boy. Fuck. That.
