Death Magnetic was very enjoyable and hardwired I enjoyed too.

So just a matter of different tastes and opinions.

I somewhat agree, I don't like or not like them, I think it was more that for their time they were different and that stuck. I do find a lot of it boring with a few stand out great songs, but that's it. I reckon the songs The Stones produced in the same time frame the Beatles were together have stood the test of time better.

( UK ) Adultwork - feedback in General

This can be manipulated , or falsified by touts -
and also due to the fact you can get a negative feedback in retaliation
and a nasty reply to a negative you left for a member of Adultwork
( so people tend not to leave genuine feedback )
so you are less certain the member is genuine - or trustworthy

I think your missing the point about Heath Ledger
- its the Academy that chose to raise his status

The academy of EGOs many of whom think they are gods
Seen enough absurd Oscars given to say it isnt about the performance

Awards shows in general are like the google search engine
- who ever pays / hosts lavish parties the most gets to be on top of the world

Quite pathetic really but thats Hollyweird

I'm not missing the point, I know how it goes. I agree with you, it's a popularity contest. And most award shows in general are overrated. I was just saying the Hollywood overlords would not have let a comic book movie take an acting award had he not died. I think a lot of the elite over there hate how much money comic book movies make, but they see it's a cash cow so they go for the ride just to make bank. I think they'd rather be cranking out crappy run of the mill romantic comedies starring Kate Hudson or Katherine Heigl because those don't cost so much to make.

Fair enough

If we're talking truly over rated

TV & Film stars who have the luxury of multiple retakes and the editing suite

versus acting live on stage where your all on your own night after night
