“Where was the academy when Bernard Hill fell!?”
A red day 🙁
Considering he was in both Titanic and Return of the King, both of which won 11 Oscars, they really should of shown him.
He might not have been a member to be honest.
The memorial would have gone on for 30 minutes if they included everyone sadly.
He was on SAG’s Memoriam though.
The academy only commemorates it’s own members. I don’t believe Hill was a member.
We remember ✊🏽😔
His remembrance by fans and those who loved how he brought Theoden to the screen is, to me, far more worthy than having his name called out at the Oscars. We are where he will be remembered.
Hill was featured in the 2024 BAFTA TV Awards In Memorium segment, recognising his first BAFTA Best Actor nomination for Yosser Hughes in Boys from the Blackstuff.
Look to be fair to the academy, they have to draw a line somewhere and they prioritise previous winners, academy members and nominees, and represent all the fields. They can only choose like 40 people out of hundreds and I like that they don’t just go for all the actors, they include crew as well.
I think we can all agree this is Conan’s fault. He said from the beginning he was going to run a tight ship and that he wouldn’t waste time.
/j obviously
Problem #1 was giving a shit what the “Academy” thinks about anything
As i sit here next my Theodin action figure and Lego Helms Deep set, i shall not forget this injustice. Sleep well My King.
This sort of thing happens every year and the same disinformation goes around.
No, the Oscars don’t only show members of the academy
The way it works is that each branch gets an allotted amount of people mentioned or shown in the broadcast. Some people just don’t make the cut.
He is mentioned on the website in memoriam.
He wasn’t forgotten, he just wasn’t selected for the broadcast.
Shame
The age of man has fallen
The academy has been lacking for a while but this is straight up inexcusable
Theoden king stands alone 😔
Luckily I already thought it was shite – now I just know for certain.
I thought I saw him? I could be wrong though
To be fair, I didn’t even know he died.
Comedian Marc Maron is about to star in a movie about a dying actor trying to solidify his spot in the Oscar’s in memoriam
i can do that giz a oscar
What a disgrace.
Wow. In 2 of the three most awarded movies by the academy and no mention? Wow
“I go to my fathers, in whose mighty company I shall not now feel ashamed”
RIP Theoden King
Ah yes. Mr. “I’m gonna sink this bitch.”
That’s a shame.
He passed in may at the age of 79
And Reddit will answer.
wow, just…. wow…. I had to google when he died cause i thought it might of been 2023 or something. nope, just snuffing the rightful king of Rohan…. bastards.
He contributed an awful lot to he industry and definitely deserved to be included
You actually think this guy’s life and legacy are more important than Amazon bragging about how they’re going to ruin James friggin’ Bond? Whatevuh, bruh.
Common academy L
Screw them
What can men do against such reckless haterism?
Someone is always missed. It what they do best.
Hail the victorious dead
How many moneymen were honored?
