The only actor I ever cared if they actually won. This man is a living legend
Living legend!? c'mon!!!
Rae commenting while avoiding the feds.
My thoughts exactly
@Kenneth yeah a bit of a travesty Elvis guy killed it and was snubbed 😆
I’m so happy for him. He was invisible in the film industry for some time. Now he’s bigger than ever. He deserves it all.
@Razobličavanje sucks
@John Smith Mummy series?
@John Smith pretty sure he meant from the movie "the wale"
@CTF example?
So honest, so humble, so overwhelmed... I don't think I ever say one winner being so shocked and scared of his so deserved success. He's now a 12 of 10 on my sympathy scale!
Very very very happy for him!
One can even say....Brave!
This speech is so touching. You can feel that he's not only a great actor, but also simply a good human. He truly did deserve this Oscar❤️
Dyane Johnson will not achieve it ever
I adored this man during my childhood…so glad hes doing well now
@RDT imposter and pervert 😆😂
Same
@Brendan Fraser Me, after the mummy. Thanks for your contribution to the cinema.
@Brendan Fraser bro are u for real
Thanks for your continues love ♥️and support,that’s what keeps me going How long have you been a fan of mine?
Hollywood doesn't deserve Brendan. He is real, big hearted, humble, kind and a good human being. No wonder why he didn't survive in that world. Happy he won and it's redemption and vindication that those with beautiful spirits and hearts do triumph in this dark world. Love you, Brendan!!!!
The sad thing is he was blacklisted for speakind out against sexual abuse he recieved while in hollywood
They don't deserve him. BUT they DO need him.
Agreed
Man disappears from the film industry for almost a full decade, comes back for one movie and wins an Oscar from it. What a legend
Ke huy Quan also him And Brendan both not just Brendan deserved
@RedmanLaw000 whatever do u mean , everyone is better or best in their prime, Brendan is one of my fav.action/comedy star, he is among the best of the best to say the least. Now after being kinda kicked from Hollywood for being true to himself , he proved them wrong and won an Oscar , thats the pinnacle of a meaning of comeback,determination and success while still being true to urself !!! But to ur point, i loved him in the mummy franchise, my only wish was Rachel wasnt there in the 3rd one,they were so great together.
The Whale movie made me cry so much ❤
He was one of my childhood heroes due to the Mummy movies, what a redemption it has been for him. Kudos.
Thanks for your continues love 💕 and support,that’s what keeps me going How long have you been a fan of mine?
I’ve been routing for this dude. I can’t express how happy this makes me. After suffering the way he did Brandon deserves a break. Glad to see good hearted people be rewarded for their hard work
I agree! 😊
My two cents after watching the movie - he whole heartedly, 1000% deserved that oscar. I was blown away to pieces by his performance and the movie itself as well.
@John Smith it was good
It got terrible ratings, pass
Yeah that movie got me crying like a baby
I don't care about the oscars...like at all. But after watching The Whale and had to see if he won. He totally deserved it.
His performance was good. The movie itself I wasn’t a fan.
It really hits you in the feels when you see someone show how much something means to them.
Finally getting the recognition he deserves. He was outed and humiliated, then they gave all his roles to other actors. Glad to see him rebound after such a hard time. That's true success
Ousted... Not outed
@h3arty As I understand it, a producer sexually harassed him and he reported it. But that was in the days when Hollywood's go to play was to hush up such things and for daring to try and shine a light on it, Fraser was blacklisted. He was shunned, roles he was previously up for were withdrawn and numerous doors were closed to him for daring to rock the boat. When you combine that with the psychological stress and the physical injuries he'd accumulated from years of filming stunts and action scenes, he just couldn't take it and stepped away from Hollywood.
Outed and humiliated? How? :o
It was refreshing to hear an old-school acceptance speech. What a good and humble man.
Wow 27k likes. 🏆 😂
@re-Pete after-me Enjoyable movie for me...
Beautifully said.👍🎥🙏🎥👍
@evilSWA - beyond pandora films ?????? What the fk did I just read?🥴
I thought we'll never see Brendan Fraser again but he didn't disappoint us and won best award for himself in the world.
I just watched The Whale and shed some tears. A very deserving Oscar win.
Until it stopped.. That gave me goosebumps.. so happy for him.
I have never been balling but so happy watching anyone take an oscar the way I see Brandon, we love you with all our hearts Brandon!! 💕
The MIX of emotions that this film gave me... sad, sympathetic, angry, happy, heart-warming, empathetic, frustrated, and admiration. It was SO HARD to watch!! But WELL WORTH it! His performance has the POWER to raise awareness, influence, and help others who are going through or could go through the same thing. UNBELIEVABLE acting! WONDERFUL character, WONDERFUL actor! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I feel so happy for him. After almost disappearing completely from movies, this is indeed a comeback for the generations.
@John Smith Here's some more attention,kiddo. Your parents rightfully didn't give you any.
@TheHailstorm77 like what?
@Ana Patrícia huh? Meryl Streep been winning Oscar's since the 80s and Jack career never fell off. Lewis quit. Pacino is old. Do more research
@Carolyn Yates great reply for someone voicing their opinion
So stunning, so courageous,, one might even say...Brave!
Coming back after so many years and taking the oscars .this is hard work and dedication.❤❤❤❤❤
This was a tough category with all phenomenal performances, but I believe Brendan put all his chips into this role and it outshined and touched us all. He deserves this comeback
Hollywood tried to destroy him but he's back and hist back role ever. Proud !
He’s such an angel, very very well deserved 🖤
Finally. This guy so deserves it. Love his acting. So under rated.
He spoke up against abuse and he was blacklisted. He deserves this comeback and he deserves this oscar
Him speaking up about ONE guy did absolutely nothing
Spoke up against what abuse ?
@Suki he accused Phillip Berk of sexual assaulting him. This man was the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association - so a big name and influence there. Ever since then the phone went quiet. Poor guy, glad to see he’s doing better
@Prestige 15 he accused Phillip Berk of sexual assaulting him. This man was the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association - so a big name and influence there. Ever since then the phone went quiet. Poor guy, glad to see he’s doing better
Jesus what a beautiful movie. I went through two whole toilet rolls while watching this movie. Have not cried this much from a single movie in a very long time and what I really loved about it was it was not trying to be overly-sentimental or manipulative (like some of these tear jerkers are). The Whale is the real deal people, Watch it, bawl your eyeballs out of your head and leave with a profoundly beautiful message about hope and being a good person to others. Well done Brendan. You deserved that Oscar win.
His performance in The Whale is the best I have ever seen.
It's precious to see how people got excited for him too. his rival colleagues for the prize and even the smiles the announcer dropped. Shows how he deserved to win.
This was the most suspenseful speech of the night, he had me on the edge of my seat worrying that he'd have a heart attack right on stage.
His performance in Whale was hands down something different. I wish him all the best after all the stuff he went through
What a comeback story, and what a wholesome man. No moral lecturing, no arrogance, no drama. Fraser is the man.
@Oswaldo Zuniga parks and recs refference 🤣🤣🤣
@coolbHzjdnd own that bozo👏🏽💯
@Oswaldo Zunigaher comeback felt plastic
I'm sorry but Kim Kardashian still has the best comeback story of all times.
The only person who I care about winning an Oscar. He deserves so much ♥️ what a freakin treasure
I don't care for the Oscars. But I'm overwhelmed with emotion because Brendan won. He truly deserves the recognition. What a comeback Brendan, our childhood legend! I wish for all the good things in life to you ❤️
The rarest glimpse of humility in Hollywood.
Never seen anyone *deserve* an Oscar this much.
I was crying before he spoke. Such a wonderful and talented man. The most well deserved award in years! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
The only actor who made us feel like we all won. All our prayers .
@Dare absolutely. first role he gets and bam, oscar. deserved it like no other
Beautiful soul.
He's a people's champion.
@Syd and that all while he was basically almost crippled by the injuries from doing his own stunts. It's a wonder that he's able to stand and move again
@KurfelsTGnot the same in the slightest. brendan was ripped apart and blacklisted from hollywood because he opened up about sexual assault. then he was financially ruined by his ex wife who made him pay tenthousands a month on alimony for 10 years. this man had nothing left before he got this part and now winning an oscar for it as well is just beautiful. leo just didn't get an oscar a few times which happens to many actors.
Honestly the greatest award speech I've ever heard..just thanks and love no other bs..
I really wanted him to win all along. I feel so good now. This man's movies are an integral part of my childhood. Congratulations Brandon. 🎉❤️
I cried my heart out of happiness and gratitute. He deserves it!
That rare thing… a genuine speech by a genuine man at the Oscars. A man that doesn’t realise just how exceptionally talented he is and is as humble as the man next door. Incredible Brendan 👏
He has always been such an amazing actor. One of the most genuine people in the entertainment industry. He was treated so badly. This is his time. What a comeback. I hope he has many more great performances in his future. There are very few that can play such a range of characters as well as he can.
I could not have cared less about the Oscars, but when hearing about Brendan's win this morning, I was very happy for such a humble man.
@Mish375 S With Honors, School Ties, The Quiet American, Mrs. Winterbourne, and Still Breathing, Gods and Monsters, just to name a few greats I believe are worth checking out. These were all WAY before the Whale. It’s such a shame he doesn’t really get recognition for these and gets more for stuff like George of the Jungle and other silly stuff like it that makes him come off as a joke.
Same 😭❤️
@Marsh That is what I understand. A friend told me that she cried and cried...but he was amazing.
He was the ONLY award I kept waiting to hear about all night.
@Marsh I'm definitely considering watching it.
Brendan was left apart by Hollywood, surviving by himself after being at the top, only to return in glory and something different that made him deserve a recognition, thanks for all the effort ❤
Greatest comeback in an entertainment industry .. God bless 🙌
Muero de amor cuando Jessica al leer toca a Hailey porque esperaban que ganara él 😢
So happy for Brendan, seems like a great humble guy. The Mummy is one of my fav movies ever
Brendan Fraser and his movie roles were a massive part of my childhood. He’s one of the few people that I actually respect and wish the best for in this industry. He’s incredible.
It's so rare that you feel like an award has gone to someone not just deserving for the work but deserving as a good human being who really deserves recognition and support.
@JACpotatos no I'm basing my argument off of the fact that I've read about every biography book about him out there and watched hours in interviews. You are the one assuming I took from only one source... sounds like projection for your baseline knowledge
@JACpotatos maybe you are a slow reader I talked about a lot more than that. Meanwhile you base your assumptions off of article headlines....
@Michelle Delamatter you're basing your entire argument off of a single court case......ffs
@JACpotatos it wasn't mutually toxic that was prooven in court. Also who are abused may turn to drugs as a copying mechanism that doesn't make them a bad person.
Brendan je skvelý herec a zaslúži si to!!! 👏🏆💐👍🙋♀️
Jamás sentí tanta felicidad por alguien a quien no conozco en persona 😊
He really deserves this award.
Soy el único que se emocionó tanto que hasta lloró, sentí como si yo mismo hubiese ganado ese premio cuando mencionaron su nombre? y me sentí identificado con Hong Chau, su compañera de rodaje al verlo triunfar, y me dio gusto que Brendan la mencionara en su discurso Se merece lo mejor!
I'm amazed that an oscar finally went to a fantastic human being for once. So happy for him ❤
I've never been so happy for any actor to win this award. I haven't cared about the Oscar's in a decade. But I know this matters to a good man, and that good man won out for once. Kindness and integrity won out for once. Kudos Brendan and Darren and all!
SAME HERE! :)
I thought the same
Sad that Austin didn't win. But congratulations to Brendan, he was the sentimental favorite this year.
Definitely!! ❤️
Give him one for Airheads too!
one of the best acting comebacks he definitely deserves it.
What a performance I was moved to tears when watching this film he so deserved this Oscar well dn Brendan
Honestly grateful Brendan got this award. In my opinion is he's up there with the great actions heros that molded our view of actions heroes. His roles in the Mummy movies make him a legend in my books.
He was one my favorite actors as kid. I'm so glad he came back and took Oscar.
I am so happy for Brendan Fraser. One of my all time favourite actors. He was absolutely amazing in The Whale.
He already won our heart since he's back. Now he won an Oscar, and when he was trying holding his tears, that was a really emotional moment.
@oxydo 993 total stalker
@ZekeAndroid49 lmao the mummy movies
@John Smith just giving you back what you put out. Maybe don't post ignorance?
God bless this man! Such raw emotions❤
You can see how overwhelmed he is by this win. Well done, Brendan! You've truly earned this Oscar. ❤❤❤
He seems like such a sweet guy. I’m super happy for him and it certainly seemed like every one else was too.
I admit it....I cried. I think he is wonderful!!!❤❤❤
He's a really great guy and actor! That speech said it all and it touched his heart ❤️ I'm proud of a lot of the films Brendan has performed in and he should have won an award along time ago. It's too bad it's taken this long for him to get a new role, but he finally got one. Hope he gets more, but GOD bless his heart
So humble . Took no credit. Gave everyone else the credit. That’s why we love Fraser.
@MaxSt. Arlyn lmao
@Aaliyah What an odd hill to die on lol
@semaj_5022 Omg....your comment brought me to tears. I'm barley able to put into you're how amazing you are. Wow.... you seriously the greatest person . Thank you show much. Your message touched my heart. You're a better person then I... I'm literally crying writing this. You're a beautiful human and I'm honoured to read your comment. Yeah....not.....see....how I pandered bulkshit to you. Just like Fraser....
@Aaliyah It's called decency and humility. Most of us, as human beings, should have no issue being able to tell when a person is being sincere, and Fraser is always sincere in his praise of others, like in his acceptance speech here.
His kids are named after cars? Love how genuine he is. Well done🎉
One of very few people in the world that has no haters, he deserves so much more. Protect him at all costs ❤
I was so happy for him that I cried. This is so heart warming
I never thought he would win an Oscar! So incredible. Amazing person and actor. Well deserved.
Every 90s kid out there remembers that this guy was our childhood now he's a Oscar winner! How amazing!
I never cared about the Oscars but I'm actually really happy to know that Brendan Fraser won. What a come back! After the turns in his life and his career. Wow. This award is so well deserved. He is extremely talented and he puts his heart into his performances, a credit to the art!
@Black Feel creep
nicely said
Turns is putting it extremely lightly, but I get what you mean. He's had a lot of f-ed up things happen to him, that basically ruined his career. So glad he's being recognised. We were all ecstatic and thought he "was back" with Doom Patrol. Now look at him :)
just read about his life and why he was "gone" for a time and you love him even more. this guy is a humble and lovly person.he deserved this.
This was a lifetime achievement award for him almost. Had to feel so good.
OMG i just wanna hug this guy every time i see him winning bc hes so overcome with genuine emotion and appreciation
I'm so glad he won, well deserved after everything that happened to him
His speech was so touching what a beautiful man he deserved it so happy for him 👏🏾❤️
A big big big moment in the history of Oscars...Huge Respect 💞 Loss of mother at a critical phase of life, fall of a successful career, painful divorce, depression, health issues, allegations and assaults...He lost everything... 💔 But look at him, he came back to reclaim what he truly deserves...Such a happy day for those who never give up❤️
@Rob Fournier I agree with that
@StretchGamesHD Fall of, not fell off...read carefully
Its just a Movie, these people need to relax. Plenty of regular people have tragic stories.. Good for him, he seems like a great guy but these are just movies for entertainment. If the movie business' disappeared tomorrow we would be alright.
Yeah True that
Fell off!?!?!? Tf you on. He got seriously injured while filming a movie and had to stop. Didn't fall off atall.
I just watched the movie. I didn't know the full gravity of the issues he faced during his "hiatus". All I knew was that he was screwed over by hollywood and that's it. I grew up watching his films and I cannot believe that, after finally being free from all the horrible stuff, his acting skills never was lost and became even better. He remains a good soul. He deserves everything.
I've never been this touched seeing anyone win an award
I loved Brendan since I was a kid watching “The Mummy”. I don’t know what kind of journey the man has had through life, but, I’m glad he’s back doing what he loves.
Incredible. Absolutely extraordinary. Not a single mention of politics. He didn’t use the moment as an excuse to stand on top of a soap box and go on about injustices and sad current events. He just went up there, reflected on his career, it’s ups and downs, and how grateful he was to be given another chance. He thanked the Academy, the cast, the director and writer, his sons, his girlfriend Jeanne, and his agent. You don’t see these types of acceptance speeches anymore. I’m happy he won.
Brendan and Ke both are so heartfelt sincere. Blessings to them!
It's not often you see your childhood hero fall and the rise to then top again like a phoenix. But this, this brought me to tears. I am so grateful I live in this timeline where Brendan has done just that.
You need some life goals bro.
Beautiful ❤
@OldSingingStudent DougBill Ferguson My man thinks it's easy to deal with fame, depression and harassment.
Can anyone pls tell me the name of theme played when he came to the stage
Omg I actually cried for this man’s success. I’m so happy for him! 🤧❤️🔥✨🎉
Same
Thanks for your continues love❤️ ❤and support,that’s what keeps me going How long have you been a fan of mine?
I am so glad he is doing well and we get to see him again!! Brendan Fraser is truly a good human being!
Brendan Fraser is such a humble human being and a fantastic actor 👏 You deserve it brendan!
Anybody who knows this man career and what he has been through will appreciate his accomplishment. I'm so happy for him!
Seeing him getting this award fills me with utter joy. I'm really proud of him!
Ive never cared fot the Oscars but so happy at this one you can see what it means to him truly deserved
He really deserves this Such a kind soul ❤
I had the pleasure of working with Brendan on Condor filmed in Toronto a few years ago. We celebrated his nomination at the Canadian Consulate in LA before the Oscars and he is equally as humble and beautiful a soul on the world stage as he is in person. He really LOOKS at you. You deserve this sweet man. Thank you for your service
He proved he is a amazing actor ❤
What an absolute legend.. I grew up watching this man's movies and to see him on top again is absolutely inspirational
The man just got up there and said a heartfelt thank you. No fluff no nothing but vulnerability and honesty just like his winning performance. One of the best speeches. Well deserved 👏
Well said, I couldn't agree more. It was an honest and sincere speech, from a humble man. A very deserving winner.
@Jan Pawelczyk no
@Lucas Savicki I'm not talking about the plants themselves. Tons of wildlife and other living things die to grow the plants we eat. As a comedian once said, "How cute does something have to be before you complain about it being killed?"
@Pete Smith terrible argument bruh. I eat meat, but lets not pretend its even close to the same thing, animals feel pain, plants do not
@Jan Pawelczyk You're still killing living things to eat a vegan diet. Negatively impacts the environment, too. So what's your reasoning for doing it?
Волшебный Оскар! Воплощение того, что все возможно.
Im so happy for him. He was my childhood. I loved all his movies, he's a funny guy.
Speechless Moment for Our Hero ❣️
I have to say the he really is an outstanding actor. Just by seeing how timid and emotional he is and, then seeing the goofey, funny, and sometimes ridiculous characters he’s played is a proof that he’s very versatil. And now the whale, heart wrenching acting.
