If you had told me three years ago that Bradley Cooper and Jonah Hill would not only be Academy Award nominees but also vying for their SECOND Oscars this year, I would have assumed every other actor had died.

The obvious choice is Jonah Hill, but Bradley Cooper was probably one of the most bland, vanilla actors ever on television, particularly on Alias. It shocks the hell out of me that he has actually evolved into a really, really good actor.

Of course, I know it's possible both will be snubbed next month, but it's crazy that we're even discussing the possibility.

Jonah Hill is getting attention for Wolf?

Jonah Hill obviously.

I wouldn't call Cooper one of the most bland, vanilla actors on television. I thought he was good in Alias.

If Hill gets nominated he will have more nominations than Bale, Oldman, Hardy, Gordon-Levitt or Cotillard have had despite longer careers. And he would tie Hathaway. Nolan, are you listening?

Price, one day, Michael Cera will also be a two-time Oscar nominee.

He still is.

He's actually not.

Cooper has proven to be a really good actor. I'm not saying he's Nicholson-level, but certainly better than I would have predicted.

How is this even a question?

Bradley Cooper is a Movie Star.

Jonah Hill is a comedian who somehow got a Oscar nomination.

Adam Sandler is a movie star. Thankfully, he's not an Oscar nominee.

So... even I doubted that this would happen and it somehow did!

The answer to this is still obviously Jonah Hill.

Who would have predicted around when Superbad came out that he would be a two-time Academy Award nominee seven years later?

I'm glad for Bradley Cooper. He deserves the recognition.

I can't completely write off Jonah though. He gave two really good performances in both his nominated roles, especially Wolf. I'm sure it's debatable if it was one of the five best supporting performances, but he still impressed.

I wouldn't mind if either of these guys gets it. Both good performances.

Cooper is actually quite good. No surprise really.

Hill is a huge surprise - but still deserving.

He really is a great actor - - underrated by many because he happens to look funny.

His first movie was with David O. Russell for goodness sakes!

Now if he can get himself a nomination for a true comedic performance then I'll be very impressed.
