#+ they wouldn't want oscar to feel some type of way after all these measures to ensure they get mostly ~equal treatment~ within the team

I can always count on you for objective takes 🙏 what did you think about the Team asking oscar to hold position if he didn't have the pace to catch max

(gshdj ty anon although i didn't watch most of the race so my knowledge is probs limited)

tee bee hech i think tom just tacked on that "do you think you could challenge verstappen" as a courtesy? oscar was on tyres 3 laps older than lando's and at the end of the day a team isn't going to gamble on their less experienced driver for a late-race switcharoo even if he Had said he could do it ! not to ment the subsequent slowing to facilitate any kind of swap would've rendered them vulnerable to george

Even if Tom is amazing in TCR, it will take Tom years before he will be nominated for anything due to spider-man. After the Twilight movies,  it took Robert Pattinson years before anyone took him seriously the same thing most likely is going to apply to Tom.

Some fans need to understand that while awards are nice to have, it means very little in Hollywood. Power and money are given to those who are box office success.  Tom Cruise has never won an Oscar and was last nominated for any sort of award 20 years ago.  Not only is Tom Cruise going to make 100 million this year, he pretty much can go to any studio in Hollywood to get whatever project he wants made. Why? His movies consistently over perform at the box office. While it is nice to have both,  if I had to choose, money over awards  and I am sure most actors feel the same. Awards don't  translate to mansion but consist box office success does

Hmm..... I'm not sure I agree with this take entirely Anon 🤔

First off, I don't think we should really compare Tom to other actors. It may not take YEARS for Tom to be nominated for more awards like it took Robert Pattinson. 🤷🏾‍♀️ People are individuals, so idt career paths can always be compared Apples to apples.

I mean, Zendaya came from Disney and was known solely for that for years. Now, she's a two-time Emmy winner. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Sometimes it just depends on the project that someone has been part of, or sometimes it's who the person was up against that particular year. It's really hard to say.

All I DO know is that historically, (if we're talking Oscars), it's much harder for YOUNGER, attractive, popular male actors to win Oscars than it is for their female counterparts. 🤷🏾‍♀️ That's just the typical pattern I've personally seen. But maybe that might even be changing eventually in the future, who knows?

I also wouldn't say that "awards mean nothing in Hollywood". Ummm..... awards DO mean smthg! Even just getting NOMINATED can make you more "valuable" to a studio, and you can demand more money for your future projects. You usually get more interesting roles thrown your way as well.

Granted, there are some who end up getting the "Oscar Curse" after a win, but that all depends on what some are doing after they win, or what roles are being handed out to them.

But usually, having BOTH (money AND awards) isn't a bad gig at all imo lol 😆 😄

I don't think we need to undermine all the ppl who have received acting awards over the years for their stellar acting performances and act like "they mean nothing". 🥴 They obviously mean SOMETHING to actors since most want them, and if anything, it's just a huge honor that your peers felt that your performance was the best of the year amongst those nominated.

With that said, I don't think that not winning any awards makes anyone a bad actor either. 🤷🏾‍♀️ It's not a measuring stick of how talented someone is. There are plenty of ppl who are talented who have not won any awards at all.

BTW, Tom Cruise has been nominated before for Oscars (several times actually), and has even won 3 Golden Globe Awards, so I'm sure that those awards too also helped to contribute to his abilities to demand more money for his films.

It might take some actors some time to be seen as more of a "serious" actor if they've done "fluff" in the past, but all it takes is just ONE good role, and they'll be okay. 😏

I keep telling y'all... Tom is a straight, white man, (who's FOREIGN btw) in Hollywood... He is going to be OKAY lol. 😂 😹

Idk why fans worry so much 🥴

I also notice that this type of "worry" seems to suspiciously come around any time one of his peers has garnered any acclaim, or when his gf Zendaya has any success. 🤔🤨👀

Y'all need to STOP comparing Tom with other actors or his gf, etc. He's not worried, and neither should you. 🤷🏾‍♀️ He's happy for Z's success, and the success of his fellow young actors in the business.
