No post 'Oscar' roles being offered?


I had hoped that winning an Oscar may have helped her win some great roles in blockbuster or indie films. Yet, she doesn't have anything bar a 'voice' role in an upcoming movie. Do we blame CSI: Cyber (schedule) or is Hollywood offended by her acceptance speech?

Yes when you talk politics in hollywood it means you are very unprofessional. She just needs to apologize to the press for insulting women men blacks and gays all in one night.

I believe she is doing what she wants to do, like she always has in her career and on her own terms.

She has not done voice work before, so this is new. She also did just sign on for an indie sci fi film, not yet listed on IMDB.

She stated she did get a couple offers for great parts; however felt it was more important to have time off over the summer with her daughter. Again, she does things on her terms. Good for her.

I see what the title of the article is, and it says something similar in one paragraph (2nd one), but she isn't quoted as saying she lost jobs, now, due to that speech. Only due to what she considers to be the problem already existing.

So she expects for the film industry just to drop everything and give in to her and her warped feminist views and give her a job, even when she has no box office clout or might not be suitable for the roles being offered? She just wants more than what she already has and thinks she is entitled to it, just for being female. She's not even attractive looking. 

I didn't see Medium' Nan; but I'd say she would have been made up to the nines to make her look pretty. To me, she is average looking and snaggletoothed. She had her own popular t.v show and still thinks she is hard done by. She had come along way and ends up winning an Oscar and for that I applaud her and was even inspired; but after hearing her misguided Oscar speech and other things I have read, I'm not so sure her character is that great.
