MacFarlane is an incredibly talented voice actor, creative animator, great comedian, decent singer and a director of a funny light movie that only has one toilet joke btw heh. I'd rather be famous for being MacFarlane with all due respect to Shatner, who by the way has done a lot more than being Kirk.
On a different note I was hoping everybody would indulge me for a second as to why DiCaprio was not nominated for that Best Supporting Actor award, I was thinking yesterday while watching bits of Django Unchained that I really was way more impressed with DiCaprio's performance than anybody else in the movie, it could be just me but then I remember last time I felt baffled about why a worthy performance wasn't nominated was Bruno Ganz not getting nominated for best actor for Der Untergang, which I thought was a truly exceptional performance in every aspect, could it be that certain characters are unlikely to be nominated or awarded by the academy just to avoid glorifying it? If so then it's a pretty twisted dumb logic yet I don't rule it out cause it does sound like a way very old people would think and that's what the academy is made of. Also worth mentioning that Der Untergang was nominated for Best Foreign movie in 2004.
