CoolioD1 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Joel Grey had a very similar role in Cabaret as McGonaughey had in MM, and about as much screentime.. And Grey won an award. McGonaughey should get a nodIt's McConaughey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 MM is hands down awesome. I was just pointing out why he might not pan out although same type of role did once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Don't get the Bardem love at all. Don't think the character was that interesting nor do I think his performance was anything special. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Waltz, DiCaprio, and SLJ should all get noms for Django. Even though Waltz is basically lead, he'll get in here. I wish DiCap would win, but I highly doubt it. The only performance i really think deserves to win is PSH in Master. Tommy Lee Jones was fine, but not Oscar worthy. As I've said before, and some have said here, Spader was the stand out supporting actor in Lincoln. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Scoot McNairy from Killing Them Softly should get in. Very compelling and pitiful as the wormy, ratty low-life criminal who we focus on the most aside from Pitt in the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I hope Dicaprio wins.This. I've been waiting ages to see him win his first Oscar. I was hoping it'd be leading, but I'll settle for supporting if that's the best the Academy's willing to give him right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) Leo won`t win as long as he campaigns half-heartedly. People who win say they want to win. Or get influencial Hollywood stars say that for them. Or both. Cotillard is an example of an aggressive campaigner which locked her win when everyone thought Julie Christie had it in the purse. Melissa Leo, lol, yeah. Winslet had the Best Actress Time cover for The Reader. Celebs are rallying behind Impossible and naomi Watts. Brody won not only because he campaigned like his life depands on it but he got his direct competitors Nicholson and DDL pull for him. Waltz was aslo campaigning like crazy.So, yeah. There are rules and if you don`t play by them then your fans shouldn`t be too upset if you are snubbed for you obviously don`t want the statue badly enough to cross some lines of good taste.

DiCaprio I think, if he thinks that he has a shot at winning he'll be out there and he'll campaign fairly hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Leo`s a good sport. Doesn`t strike me as a type who goes around saying "I`m better than ______(actors from competing movies)" let alone "I`m better than ______(actors from my own movie)." There`s gotta be a reason why top directors and actors want to work with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
