  • Wow, you guys are fucking low! Saying things like useless nigga? Fucking racist, hes a great actor, and the speech is not the only reason he is famous. Damn grow up, it's sad hating on him, because he got the Oscar, and not Edward Norton! If the academy chose him, he obviously did a great job? Just fuck off, and don't be such low lifes.

  • nothing to be ashmed of Cuba. that was a great and honest speech.

  • @colderbeer Norton is already better than this useless nigga , but what I hate about Norton is that he's a cocky bastard . He would be better without this shitless cockyness .

  • @ibanezatleti If Edward Norton had the flu, he's 10 times the ACTOR this over-rated [already a has-been] Cuba Gooding could ever hope to be.

  • @colderbeer so fucking true . The funny thing is that he got famous because of the stupid speech not from the movie itself :d . There were so many deserving guys for that oscar than this idiot that year .

  • SHOW ME THE MONEY@!@!@##@!%

  • Sooooooooooooooooooooo over-rated. And the role he "won" it for was nothing. Talk about an off year for the movies....a very average movie with average performances gets nominated for Best Picture. Huh? Here we have a one hit wonder talking all big about himself....amazing.

  • @contact1araya totally agree

  • @contact1araya I dunno but he is getting the real piece of shit roles. And I think it doesnt have to do with his skills. The dude that played Gandhi had to wait like twenty years to start playing good roles again. In the meantime he was stuck with Species....

  • @contact1araya it's not like there's a lot oscar worthy roles out there for black men (I can't even think of 3 in the past couple of years), he's gotta pay his bills somehow

  • One of the best performances, and best Oscar acceptance speeches, I've ever seen.
