I honestly expected him and Cruise to get a supporting actor nod. EB Films recently reminded me of this snub and decided to some to his board.
It is very odd that he didn't even recieve a nomination.

Nah…
Cruise, Macy, and Hall were better.

He should have won another OSCAR for 'Magnolia' (SPOILER ALERT)
I have never before or since seen such a perfect performance of a man facing the final moments and realizations of 16d0 a life of vanity and corrupted loves. For it is only now that he is hearing the chorus of penalties of his train-wreck of a soul ...
There is though, one thing that I always wanted to see in that final scene with his estranged son 'Jack' -- now known as 'Frank T.J. Mackey' (brilliantly portrayed by Tom Cruise) ... I wanted Earl -- (as the maelstrom of hundreds of thousands of frogs are falling on the house and area) to open his eyes -- and for he and Frank to share the moment ... no words spoken.
And when the last of the frogs hit the earth -- Big Earl Partridge passed onto the forevers.
In any event -- Jason Robards richly deserved a 3rd Oscar!
