oh my, is Clint now bigger than Jesus? don`t think so dude. although i do agree with your statements eastwood is not much of a character actor. his roles are adherent to his former portrayals such as Blondie, Dirty Harry, Filo Beddo, Tough Guy Preacher, etc. As much as i did/still do enjoy all his flicks i`ve never really been blown away by any of his performances, he`s usually always the same in every movie he does no matter what role. that kinda leaves me saving my 50 bucks for the new Star Trek flick in the spring.
IMO, handing out oscars doesn`t mean much either!
