I think Robert Downey, Jr. deserves an Oscar nod for Iron Man
Check out this article I wrote for Screen Rant, arguing why I feel Robert Downey, Jr. deserves an Oscar nomination for Iron Man:

anyway imo Jeff Bridges did much, much better as a "bad guy", though not as good as Heath Ledger in "Dark Knight" |

I'm not saying he didn't a good job,
But I think RDJ literally found a movie where he could just play himself. That doesn't necessarily mean its award-worthy. There were dozens and dozens of better performances this year. |

Great film. Terrific effects and action. Catchy script. Terrific performance by RDJ - Oscar worthy??? No.

RDJ deserves an Oscar for Tropic Thunder if for anything!

Bridges was excellent as Stane, especially near the end, when he
SPOILER ALERT! took Tony's heart/power out. Great acting, writing, direction, camera, sound, etc. All excellent! heath

Now I didn't say because he used that he deserves an award--I just said that Hollywood loves the comeback kid. And RDJ definitely is that.
But it looks like RDJ got the Golden Globe nom for Tropic Thunder. Heath

Oh I LOVE that he appears to be getting his act together. God Bless 'm. He's a suprememly talented actor. Two of his films in particular are noteworthy. CHAPLIN an the often overlooked RESTORATION in particular.
