Leonardo DiCaprio, Ladies and Gentlemen.

[akris15]

It's about time for him but as a side note I am glad spotlight won best picture because it was so much better per the whole package than revenant.

[ParanoiD84]

Edward Norton.

Should have gotten one for American history x imo.

He was great in Death to Smoochy too.

[AeneasBK]

Edward Norton should have won an Oscar for his role in this movie, surely?

It's been a looong time since I watched it last. I remember thinking "Woah!" at the time though.

[robomatticus]

So you thought both the Revenant and Mad Max were meh?

Boy, I bet you are fun to watch movies with.

Yup. Both films' stories were shit and nice visuals don't balance that out.

[Damsbo]

Finally! Been rooting for Leo for years and years. That guy is awesome!

Careful sport, your hipster is showing.

[Biggles Worth]

How'd he win anyway? Didn't he lay there the entire video?

[robomatticus]

Careful, your easy to entertain millennial age is showing.

I love it when people say something is overrated, basically you are saying I don't like something when everyone else does. It's not an argument or even a critique.

Congrats to Leo anyway, had some amazing roles in the past few years.

You do realise that the action films of the 70s and 80s were pretty stupid as well?

[glo]

Good that he got one, though he did have roles in other films that deserved it more. Gangs of New York and The Departed come to mind.

You should double check that again, because you're calling films like the Indian Jones trilogy, Die Hard, Empire Strikes Back and the original (and only good) Mad Max films stupid.

Millennial age...rofl, thanks for that, it actually made my day.

And ahhh, the truth comes out. Its fun to hate on movies just cuz they are new, isnt it?

In every generation for every great movie there are even more terrible movies. For the 70s for every Star Wars there was a Zardoz. So get off your generational high horses.

How dare you insult Zardoz!!!

[Damajin]

Never cared for movie awards as I don't judge movies or the participants in them by what/how many awards they've won so this isn't a big deal to me. I liked him in Gangs of New York, can't remember anything else I've seen that was really to my liking.

[purebalance]

Just as how it was about time Ennio Morricone won one. Leo is just one of the many few who have had 10 nominations without winning once like Peter O Toole. Its still a surprise to me Gary Oldman has only had one Oscar nomination

Gary Oldman is such a man of many characters too. My god, that alone should warrant something. I mean you have the villain in Fifth Element, Commissioner Gordon, Sirius Black, and Dracula.

Found a link of a listing:

Preferred his other films tbh :/

Yeah, it's basically saying that the majority of people are WRONG about something that's entirely personal taste.

Wow, I didn't realize the 5th element bad guy was also Commissioner Gordon and Sirius Black. I always love when I find out that an actor has played a bunch of roles and I never knew it was the same guy. Really says something about their acting.

[IIamaKing]

Grats to him, but the Revenant was still supremely overrated.

Cannot disagree more, while it is slow story wise, to work that went into crafting it is amazing. Is is supremely shot, directed, acted and scored.

It is a master piece of film.

I really enjoyed DiCaprio in Catch Me If You Can and The Wolf of Wallstreet. The latter of which is a wonderfully comedic role.

My favored role is his in The Departed.

Kind of sad he got it for a role in which he was average at best compared to many other he did before.

Edit: Also, nice speech too.

I dont know, There was not a lot of dialogue he had to act alone for a lot of the film, I think it was a great performance. But I do agree he has done better before. Gilbert Grape comes to mind.

Guy deserved a statue, he has been performing at the peak of the craft for like 20 years now.
