I love SLJ, but what a (public) temper-tantrum. I realize actors often have unique personalities and that he's earned a lot of his success... But he's also operating at some of the highest levels of privilege, wealth, fame, and adoration. And that's not enough for him...?
A lot of actors think they have been snubbed by the Academy (some rightly so). But to publicly blame your directors and editors comes across as very whiney and is unprofessional. If he wants control over how something turns out, he should direct something, but currently that's not his job.

He's talking about the Academy Awards. You know, little gold statues for being famous enough at playing make believe to be noticed, and and good enough at it to be considered as one of the best of the well known.
If there's anything the rich, privileged actors can publicly whinge about, it's probably this.
