Michael Fassbender's Oscar 'Lesson'

Michael Fassbender GQHappens to the best of us: "'At the beginning people [say], "You’re going to be going to the Oscars," and you’re like, "Whatever, doesn’t matter, don’t think so." But after a while it does penetrate. After a while you’re like, "Anyway, so I’m going to the Oscars…"' He laughs. 'And you start to believe it. And I did. I thought I was going. And then I found out I wasn’t and I was upset. I was very upset by it. The first reaction was "What the fuck…?"' He sounds frustrated that he had let himself get sucked in. 'It’s a vanity thing. It does become important to you. And it shouldn’t.' On reflection, he decided that he had learned something about misplaced priorities. 'A good little lesson.'" [GQ]

    Asking the elderly members of the Academy - including 90-year-old men who haven't had a decent erection since the Reagan administration - to feel sorry for a young, hunky sex addict with a big cock, is like asking starving, penniless homeless people to feel sorry for shopaholics and fat food addicts who overindulge at the dinner table every night. The sympathy just ain't gonna be forthcoming. Fassbender was never gonna get that Oscar nod - not for this material.
