Christopher Lee brought unmatched range to cinema over his long career, yet the Academy continues to overlook his legacy. Send a brief email to the Academy board of governors today to demand he receives the recognition he earned. Tell them that two hundred film roles deserve more than silence.

Better late than never. Such a massive loss for cinema.
LEGEND. Give the man his due.
Its criminal he never got one while he was alive. Absolute legend.
Christopher Lee is the greatest screen villain ever. The academy really dropped the ball on this one.
He was in everything i grew up watching. From horror to lotr he carried every single scene he was in. Long overdue recognition.
He deserves one.

Absolutely! Sir Christopher Lee deserves an Oscar for Lifetime Achievement in film. No-one else has done what he has done. He lifted even the least of his roles up and made something of the thinnest scripts. He was, is and will always be a legend & the Academy should recognize his role in the history of film.
