Can't believe people thought he deserved an oscar nomination for Creed

Unbelievable. I mean his performance was okay, but nowhere near Oscar worthy. Black people just use this an excuse to paint Hollywood as racist. Pathetic.

For goodness sakes, no one SAID it was ONLY about the actor. Why wasn't Ryan Coogler nominated for best director or the film for best picture? This film was EONS better than the MARTIAN which was just matt damon being matt damon. Or how about a cinematography nomination?

He deserved the Oscar nod for Killmonger..

He was terrible in Creed! He was the weak link in a strong chain.

If he was replaced by somebody who could act like a young Denzel, or a muscular Donald Glover, it would be game over - Creed would have rained Oscars and the movie would be rated a solid 8 or 9 on imdb.
