(20,814 posts)80. I know, that was extremely disappointing.
I don't care for Waltz, and I cannot stand Tarantino and his "work." I've never, ever, ever understood his appeal and I never will. It makes me sick that he won original screenplay also, while Lincoln hardly won anything and it actually deserved to win everything it was nominated for. I turned the tv off during his acceptance speech. Jones deserved it.
All in all, this was a very disappointing Oscar night and I've watched every year for over thirty years now.
