Should Megan Fox be nominated for Oscar award?



She might not be a super woman like Black Widow, Alice from Resident Evil or a gun blazing woman like Angelina Jolie; but she portrays a very relateable and inspiring reporter/woman figure. She worked hard on this role and pouring her heart into it. As April, she's attractive, but she wasn't vain or arrogant, instead she's very humble.

She's determined, really driven to get to the truth. And she's got a reckless streak in her. Despite being a hostage, she still wanted to take video/pic using her phone to cover a story, risking her own life. (SPOILER) She managed to land an attack on Shredder using a sai to his back during the sewer lair invasion. And in the final climax, eventhough she's hundreds of feet tall hanging to a building piece, she risked her life to boot the Shredder to his demise.

Getting an Oscar is a bit of a stretch, but I just wanted to highlight how captivating and mesmerizing her performance was in this film. Truly, Megan was one of the highlights of the movie. I can't take my eyes off her, it probably feels just like Heath Ledge's Joker from The Dark Knight.

To whoever did the costume for Megan - that yellow jacket reminiscent of the OT April jumpsuit, truly was a stroke of genius. She simply looks stunning in it.

Never going to happen. She'd probably have to play a mute like in The Piano to be even considered a Globe, much less an oscar.

What? No. No. No. No way. Zero chance. She brought almost zero emotion to her role. This was probably her best performance yet, but that ain't saying much.

This, on the other hand? Far more likely.

The fact that this thread exists is both sad and hilarious.

"Megan Fox"

and

"Oscar"...

two things that should never be said in the same sentence.

I thought this was a troll thread at first.

Then I realized, I was right, it is a troll thread.

Megan Fox is only good for her boobs. The rest of her can shove it.

We could be. I've noticed, there isn't too much threads talking about "How cool was that sh!t" and "my favorite quotes were this" and "well, my favorite Leo, Raph, Donny, Mikey scene is so on and so on".

For a movie getting a lot of love, it's not really showing it except, wow, it made 60 million plus on opening weekend.

Megan Fox might have been alright in the new TMNT movie but she was not spectacular in it. So, I do not think she deserves to be nominated for an Oscar.

There wouldn't be any justice in the world if Megan Fox had an Oscar and Emilio Estevez didn't. I just wouldn't wanna live anymore.

Yeah, that's actually depressing when you think about it. This movie is so forgettable.
