If you look at The Godfather, Marlon Brando wasn't in too many scenes (Al Pacino was in more), but he was nominated (and won) because he was in enough mintues.

In 1980 Ordinary People starred Donald Sutherland and Timothy Hutton. Timothy Hutton was the lead as in he was in the most scenes and the most minutes but he was nominated for Supporting and won, while Sutherland was nominated for Lead (didn't win).

so your point is that the academy is retarded?

I was just looking for an explanation for that. Hutton was easily the lead actor in that film. My guess is they wanted him to win but didn't want him to win lwd actor at that age for his first major role, so they gave him the supporting nod.

--- End quote ---

It's done for animated, comic book, and indie movies to get in the list.  Avatar would have made it for sure if it was only 3 movies lol
