Academy is not gonna dap him up because they like to see perceived effort or an actor stretching their limits/going outside of their usual zone. Most Leo roles aren't really that much of a stretch for him to play (his most recent ones).

1.) Stop working with only big name directors. Scorcese/Nolan/Eastwood/Mendes/Tarantino etc. I'm sure Academy thinks thats acting on easy mode. Take on an Indy role with an up and coming director.

2.) Straight up go for Oscar bait. Do the physical challenge (either gain a shyt ton of weight or lose a shyt ton of weight) or go out of his alpha white male zone for a hollywood agenda prototype (gays or jewish people.)

like a malnourished Jew in a concentration camp fighting for survival and inspiring other malnourished jews to meet their demise with dignity and grace?

Who won the year he was nominated for Shutter Island? That's my favorite performance of his... He absolutely killed that role

I think the problem right now is that Leo's stuck in a rut. And that rut is that everyone's accepted he's one of the best, so him dropping another great role isn't as surprising as say, a Lupita killing it out of nowhere or Matthew having one of the biggest career revivals ever!

:mjpls: so he gets penalized for picking great roles, being consistent, universally respected in his industry and a sure fire box office draw?

He wasn't even nominated for best actor but but Kate Winslet was nominated for best actress.


As Good As It Gets swept best actor with Jack Nicholson and best actress with Hellen Hunt. Titanic won best picture and director.

The problem is you never forget youre watching leo. Same way you never forget youre watching tom cruise.

He will win when he's older, ten years from now or so and it wipl be more of a lifetime award type nod and not for the actual performance he gives.

I do, actually. He's never been a Tom Cruise type to me. He's no Gary Oldman, either, but I've never really seen him as Leo. Gary has only been nominated once and that was just in 2012. That dude absorbs his roles.

He got robbed for Gilbert Grape. Damn, I researched it and I thought he lost that year to an old guy who was dying or some shyt. He lost to Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive which was good but not oscar-worthy.

He wasn't nominated. Nothing for Shutter Island was nominated. I think it had to do with the timing of when it came out.
