Well I'm not sure if you've seen Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master(2012), starring Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix, but if his performance in this Oscar running film isn't proof of his awesomeness, he had this to say about the Oscars:

"I’m just saying that I think it’s bulls—. I think it’s total, utter bulls—, and I don’t want to be a part of it. I don’t believe in it….It’s the stupidest thing in the whole world. It was one of the most uncomfortable periods of my life when ‘Walk the Line’ was going through all the awards stuff and all that. I never want to have that experience again."
