Dude deserves that Oscar.... and many other people of color before him do too.  Congrats to Foxx.

I heard/read the tattoo is fake... it's for a movie he is currently filming.

he deserves the oscar because hes black? i believe oscars should be awarded on merits not because they are trying to be pc colour shouldn't come into it. I was annoyed last year when the best actor and actress went to denzel and hallie because they were black (yes they were good performers, but it seemed more like m,aking up for past preduces rather than talented performances) i hate all this positive descrimination. whats even worse is government making firms employ a certain amount of minorities which makes it easier for them to get jobs etc. over everyone else when they may not be as qualified for the job as the next man who isn't a minority, i'm not being rascist i just think colour/religion shouldn't be an element in the equation.

Ozir:
^ I didn't say he deserved it because he's black.  I said he deserves it and many people of color before him do too.

Last year Sean Penn won best actor.

Denzel deserved the Oscar for Training Day and at least one other before that.

I agree that everything should be based on merit, but in the real world, it doesn't always work that way.  :-\

Trauma-san:
I didn't really care one way or the other.  Nobody I saw nominated I think did just a stop your heart performance, you mentioned Sean Penn winning last year, if that's for that movie where he lost his daughter, he deserved to win.  He was simply incredible in that movie, and without a doubt should have won 'best actor'.  This year, nobody blew me away, so when Foxx won, I was just like "eh, he was good". 

Ozir:
^ Trauma,

I mentioned Sean Penn to clarify Don Rizzle's mistake.  He said that last year, Denzel and Hale won.  That wasn't last year.  Last year, Sean Penn won.  I don't deny that Sean Penn deserves/earned that Oscar.
