While the voting process for the Oscars is shrouded in secrecy -- and this year, mass confusion -- one voter was brutally candid.
Revealing his ballot to the Hollywood Reporter, the anonymous voter took major issue with two Oscar front-runners: "Argo" and "Django Unchained." Unswayed by the promotional gifts he was sent -- which, he said, included “just about everything short of Lincoln condoms” -- the voter unloaded on Ben Affleck's drama, which has been nominated for seven Oscars.
"'Argo' is a whole lot of nothing; it's a very engaging story, but with nothing particularly clever in the writing."
The Academy member had plenty more scorn directed at other heavy-hitters -- when casting his vote for Best Picture, he said "Django Unchained" was "basically just Quentin Tarantino masturbating for almost three hours."
