>No matter how many default nominations Streep receives, she is truly the most overrated actress in film history.
>Having closed in on Bette Davis’s and Katharine Hepburn’s combined Oscar nominations (without ever equaling their emotional impact or achieving their cultural relevance), Streep is exposed as a phenomenon from an era that, like the Oscars itself, is steadily losing the capacity for artistic discrimination.
>She’s always nominated for her celebrity, built on the myth that her gift for mimicry is the same as great acting.
>Who can deny that nominating Streep for Florence Foster Jenkins is little more than Left Hollywood’s congratulation for her Hillary-inspired attacks on President Trump?
>Such pettiness will probably result in Streep winning her fourth Oscar, so that the hordes who marched last weekend (in a collective-unconscious attempt to once again reclaim the election for Hillary Clinton) can turn the Oscar referendum into another tantrum, once again asserting their juvenile resentment.
Armond confirmed as the best living critic.

That's a straight lie

this guy is a headcase

>>78879212
An elderly gay black man who works in the press supporting a party that is anti-gay, racist, wants to defund medicaid and called the free press "the opposition" is evidence enough that he's a slave to ideology more than anything else

This isn't what Armond is saying, though.

Armond is a marxist though, but not a meme one.

This guy literally just sounds like an asspained contrarian who thinks he's a lot smarter than he is.
I guess actually him being a /tv/ representative would make sense

>Kael noted Streep’s tendency to overestimate both her own talent and the public weakness for a performer’s ostentatious ego. That side of her character made her Golden Globes behavior inappropriate and uncalled for.
he has said it before. and if you think he's only claiming that an awards show venue is inappropriate for complaining about a politician, this is the same person who got drunk, heckled, and hurled insults from his table at people accepting awards for their films.
>>
>>78880812
Armond isn't saying actors are supposed to be apolitical.
He's saying Streep's actions in the Golden Globe were inappropriate, regardless of what she was talking about.
No one in the audience enjoyed her speech, it was completely out of left field.
>>
>>78881124
does that not ring hollow coming from someone who acted wildly inappropriate at an awards show himself?

?

>>78881293
Does him acting inappropriate make everything he said about Meryl Streep invalid?

>>78881361
No but extremely hypocritical
>>
>>78881537
Sure, but Armond's actions have no bearing on Meryl Streep's actions and Streep being nominated for an Oscar for an uppity speech she made at the Golden Globes.
>>
>>78880122
is this what passes for an argument now ?
Nice rebuttal faggot.

>He's saying Streep's actions in the Golden Globe were inappropriate, regardless of what she was talking about.
Is he? Seems like he's saying that she was undeserving of the nomination thanks to mixing politics with "arts".
If anything, it sounds more "secular" than pro something.
>>
>>78881593
no it seems armond is motivated to argue against anyone who criticizes trump (even using trump's own words), without employing any empathy to understand why people might disagree with trump other than 'being sore losers' about hilary

lots of cucks on /tv/ today.
