Who is the Most Popular/Least Popular Oscar Nominee of 2013 (According to Market Research + Forbes)



E-Poll Market Research regularly asks thousands of people what they think of different celebrities, ranking them on attributes such as awareness, appeal and 44 other attributes. To create the list, Forbes turned to E-Poll Market Research which ranks more than 7,500 celebrities on 46 different personality attributes based on their polling data of Americans.

Can You Guess Who American's Stan For?!



Denzel Washington


When they narrowed that list down to the current crop of 20 Oscar nominees, Washington, who is nominated for Flight, and Robert De Niro, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Silver Linings Playbook, rose to the top.

Each star earns a perfect 100 E-Score which is a composite measure that weighs relative marketing effectiveness of each celebrity. We give Washington the slight edge because he scores higher on appeal than De Niro.


America's Most Favorite

1. Denzel Washington



2. Robert De Niro


3. Tommy Lee Jones
4. Sally Field
5. Anne Hathaway

(6 - 10 @ the source)


Nominees who scored too low to rank (least favorite):

Christoph Waltz


Alan Arkin

Christoph is a great actor, but he plays the same character in every movie.

Whaa? How so?
emerald_soul 22nd-Feb-2013 05:42 am (UTC)
He's always a sociopathic villain.

I didn't see Django, but isn't he a good guy in that?
emerald_soul 22nd-Feb-2013 06:22 am (UTC)
Oh maybe he is. I thought he was the villain.
alicederanged 22nd-Feb-2013 06:24 am (UTC)
Naw that's DiCaprio. He's one of the heroes in Django
heydigital 22nd-Feb-2013 06:58 am (UTC)
Yeah you need to see Django before trying to say this...
lovelyeli 22nd-Feb-2013 07:27 am (UTC)
u mean he plays the same german/foreign guy in every movie.
untxi 22nd-Feb-2013 07:46 am (UTC)
He most definitely wasn't sociopathic or a villain in Django.
pimpmytardis 22nd-Feb-2013 08:28 am (UTC)
He's not a villain in Carnage. He's typecast as a doctor in his German-language work.
soleil_kitty 22nd-Feb-2013 08:53 am (UTC)
lol, how many movies have you seen him in to come with such an opinion?
fraubluecher 22nd-Feb-2013 11:03 am (UTC)
We all know the answer is Inglorious Basterds. Or at least they heard a lot about this film.

lol another one for your inbox for such a silly comment bb :)
wickedground 22nd-Feb-2013 11:10 am (UTC)
he doesn't tho, at least not anymore. He used to play quite a few broken characters.
bellwetherr 22nd-Feb-2013 03:01 pm (UTC)
you mean he plays roughly the same role in every tarantino movie he's done- which is two. they're eccentric weirdos- just one was a villain and the other a hero.
