My fav movie of the year didn't get nominated, Sicario. Spotlight is the actor's movie. Loved Keaton in it. And Liev. The Big Short is still the favorite, yeah. Liev's character was super calm. It almost seemed he was sleep walking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, because of X-Men Origins, Liev has a lifetime pass from me. I could watch the 5th Wave and call him masterful. Big Short is about my #3 or #4 for the year, Creed was #2, so of the nominees, I'll be quite pleased if Big Short wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 The winner of DGA will tell a lot then. If McKay wins it then Big Short wins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I'm so excited that Leo will finally win but I'm even more curious about what he'll do next after he does (as far as I know, he doesn't have anything lined up that is going to begin filming in the immediate future). Will he continue being picky and only working with the most respected directors or will he sign on for a bunch of things that obviously scream "paycheck!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exxdee Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Inarritu better win DGA, he shaped that movie. So, the 3 contenders split the bog 3 guilds. Cant see Miller winning when voted by directors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorsese probably has something lined up soon unless Silence somehow isn't out this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he does something like when De Niro did the Rocky & Bullwinkle movie and everyone was like "but...why?" only for that to be an indicator of what his script choices would be like for the next 15 years.

Apparently he's lined with Scorsese to do a film adaptation of The Devil in The White City. Should be interesting, if it ever gets made.

Definitely the most finely tuned ensemble with lots of great work but no standouts. (Except Ruffalo who stands out for the wrong reasons). Explain, sis. The small clip of him when they showed Spotlight for consideration made his performance look extra as fuck and messy. Is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I'm excited about Leo, Larson and Sly winning but best picture or director doesn't interest me because the best movies Room and Mad Max aren't going to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I really am buying the logic that they're giving Leo the Oscar this year simply to stop him from destroying his body, mind, and soul trying to get one. Kind of like them giving one to Baleman for The Fighter so he would stop treating his body like a magical expanding-shrinking machine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still didn't stop him from packing on the pounds for American Hustle though. Although I'm guessing he's stopped now since the things he's done to his body are...not healthy, let's just say that...and I would imagine he wants to live to see both of his kids graduate high school. Also, best moment of the night: when Kate ran up to Leo when he won and hugged him before he made his way to the stage. Too bad her chances of winning her second this are slim to none because I can guarantee you that if they were to both pick up Oscars in the same year, that press room photo of the two of them holding their Oscars would be my permanent avatar forever.

The Stingray Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 So Brie is pretty much a lock now or what? I dig Elba but him over the kid from Room is a bit of a joke imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
