I honestly feel Leo gets this. Apart from them "owing" him one, he commands that movie so much and all of it is on his shoulders, not to say the other lead actors didn't share that responsibility but I feel like he and maybe Ejiofor had the most to do in their movies and its like what else does Leo need to do?
I agree, this is Leo's "Training Day". Denzel should have won the Best Actor long before he won it for Training Day. I think the Academy will have the same feeling for Leo this time around...

Matthew is overdue too but he never get's his credit cause honestly he sometimes plays in movies where he gets outshine. Sam killed him and Sandra in "A Time to Kill". Jody Foster killed him in "Contact" but Matthew is the man and is a really amazing actor to me. But I think it's between Leo and Chiwetal. Leo lost to Jamie Foxx too for "The Avator" I really wonder is this Leo time and he win an Oscar for "Wolf" like Michael Douglus won for "Wall St.".
i honestly don't think ejiofor will win.. he was good, but not great other than that last scene of the movie.

I think its between MM and leo. MM is probably most deserving but leos gotten snubbed for so long giving it to him would be like giving kobe the 08 mvp

Which is crazy seeing as how he's just turning 40 this year. Age wise he isn't even at the "we owe you" level. That shows you how dope he's been since 02 or 04

It's between Leo and Chiwetol for Best Actor. Both did FANTASTIC work in their respective films but I'm always going to ride with a brother over a Cac so I'm pulling for Chiwetol.

McQueen DAMN SURE is Best Director. That's not even debatable.


Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence probable have the actress nominations on lock. Critics are having a cinematic orgasm over that film

I don't know, I feel the Academy might sneak one in for David O Russell.

So Brehs if Jen Lawrence wins again this year, is she the leader of the new class?

She'd have to be just because her contemporaries aren't getting the same type of love yet but they're coming up. It has to be people in her same age bracket and most of them are either stuck doing certain type of flicks, burned out, or ascending.
