How cool was the scene when this piece of music played?

I'm sure most of us have expected this to happen.New York, Jan 5: A test page at Oscars.com has revealed that 'Django Unchained' costume designer Sharen Davis seems to have gotten a nomination for an Academy Award.
While the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences doesn't go public with nominees for this year's Oscars until next week, its website appears to have leaked the name of one on a test page, the Mirror reported.
Vanity Fair magazine noticed that someone at Oscars.com accidentally posted a test page on the site revealing that Davis was on the shortlist for a coveted golden statue.
"This is the third Academy Award nomination for Sharen Davis. She was previously nominated for Dreamgirls (2006) and Ray (2004)," the premature text on the test page read.
After the magazine pointed out the mistake, the Academy quickly moved to scrub the website of any mention of Davis or Quentin Tarantino's film. (ANI)
Tarantino Says He Didn't Cast Idris Elba In 'Django' Because He's British... And It's An American Story

“Yeah, Idris is British and this is an American story. I think a problem with a lot of movies that deal with this issue is they cast British actors to play the Southerners and it goes a long way to distancing the movie. They put on their gargoyle masks and they do their phoney accents and you are not telling an American story any more. They are just making hay of it, whether it be James Mason in Mandingo or Michael Caine in Hurry Sundown, they get British actors to do this."
QT is a boss but sometimes he says some really weird stuff. I guess DDL was also a bad choice for Lincoln because he wasn't American and Elba also shouldn't be cast as Stringer Bell in The Wire.“Leo is not from the South, but pretty much every other white actor in the movie is from the South. And most of the black actors are from the South. And I’m from the South.”

Quentin likes to cast for type. If you payed attention to his casting over the years you would of known that.Master Virgo wrote: QT is a boss but sometimes he says some really weird stuff.

So does the rest of Hollywood. American is not a type though. Nationality has zero to do with type. :shh:Allstar wrote:Quentin likes to cast for type.

Doing something yourself with saying the opposite would never work is two completely different things. Streep played Tatcher and when you see the film you get this idea that no one else was better for the role.Allstar wrote:Quentin likes to cast for type.

There is no such thing as American story that can only be played by Americans. I don't get how QT thinks all the Brits would come up with phony and unbelievable accents. It's not like it's impossible or anything.
QT has done some casting against the type as well. Even though that's irrelevant to what I'm saying.
Alot of actors probably don't get jobs for the same reason, Tarantino just comes out and says it.
QT simply prefers to cast for type,it is not that hard to understand, Fincher does the same thing. Of course he may have broke the rules a few times though.Master Virgo wrote:Doing something yourself with saying the opposite would never work is two completely different things.

Jamie Foxx is cast against type.
