Is Leonardo DiCaprio supposed to win an Oscar for this or will he lose again? I hope he loses just to see his fans cry again

 

I really don't think Leo gives a shit, he's still one of the most respected working actors todays, Oscar or not.

[Hatebox]

I get the backlash, but I'll stand by Birdman - it had atmosphere in spades and some very fun performances. The script wasn't subtle, but worked in service of the operatics.

 

Three hours of an intense, existential, survivalist revenge story, on the other hand, sounds pretty damn heavy. But after that trailer I can't not see it now.

[zackzack]

Let's just hope it's not as self-indulgent as Birdman.

 

Self-indulgence is the reason why people love that movie.

Me too. It is unusual & fresh. But I hope he does

not use it too much here....

Pretty interesting stuff. Had no idea the author couldn't talk about his book (or the movie). I also didn't know the story had already been made into a movie back in the '70s.

Ugh got the trailer again at Bridge of Spies. Hope it doesn't stalk me like other trailers.

I hate when trailers stalk. Trailer for Secret In Their Eyes has been doing it for two months now. It's been in front of everything.

[Jake Gittes]

At least this one has to look incredible on the big screen.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[The Futurist]

I think I ve already said this but I was very surprised to discover this movie seems to be a giant VFX undertaking with 5 houses involved like a Marvel Studios movie.

 

Weird.

"My daughter was the thing that made ME ME." I get it, Jules.

I mentioned "Man In the Wilderness"t a few pages ago.

And it has been the subject of a novel before  also; "Lord Grizzly" by Frederic Manfried that is considered a classic novel about the Fur Trade day, and  (having read both) is a better novel then "The Revenent".

I agree with the article that "Man In the Wilderness" is not a very good movie. It shows up on Turner CLassic Movies now and then.

Innaritu is an auteur! His brilliance cannot be contained.

We know the budgets for his films sure as hell can't....

[Plain Old Tele]

So dudalb, please tell me your fur-trader buffs are gonna get all critical with fur minutiae.

It's more annoying when it's non blockbusters, I think. There's an undercurrent of desperation to it

That one makes me laugh every time. Why? The trailer starts unassuming, looking like a generic romcom. But then suddenly...

 

DAT HAIRPIECE

[Kvikk Lunsj]

I can't wait until this film comes out.

[el sid]

I watched Man In The Wilderness last week and liked it. The film wasn't action-packed all the time but several scenes were pretty impressive and it had an interesting twist. After watching it I'm even more looking forward to The Revenant which - judging from the trailers - will have enough action.

[takerowns]

This will be better than Star Wars. Yep I said it.
