In fact his performance in 'Apes is absolutely brilliant, but the Academy is too dumb to recognize it.

Honestly I have never wanted to watch the Oscars less.
Oscar has no respect for this type of acting, or comedic acting. Ex. How many "actors" could pull off what Mike Myers did in Austin Powers, playing 4-5 distinct characters? I'm serious. That is serious talent.
