The 86th Academy Awards Official Thread

[Roid Jones]

So I guess Leo won't ever win an award huh?

They will throw him a bone one day and it will be for a film that is undeserved

Stealth was actually shot a year and a half BEFORE he won the Oscar, the released it after he won to capitalize off his buzz.


Jamie's actually done pretty well for himself since the oscar. Dropped Gold seeking albums, been in blockbusters as well as dramatic roles he's solid

Word on Stealth, didn't know that. Yeah aside from that and a couple missteps, he's done well

I think most thought Jamie would go on to have Will Smith type dominance but you are right he has a solid career

I'm happy overall cause it was a very diverse winner's list. I still think it's pathetic a Black Man has never won Best Director but a Latino won it so it's all good. A Black Man finally won Best Picture. Lutpita winning was great. The biggest reason Leo lost is cause I think the Academy knows he will be back. This is probably it for Matthew even though he's an underrated actor. Overall average show but I winner list is straight. "12 Years" winning Big Picture was the icing on the cake. Such an amazing film.

Damn man Leo still not got 1 yet.

TBH Leo dont even NEED an Oscar, he is solid in almost every role he does. Its not like winning an Oscar will propel him he is already the best of his generation.

Well matt winning the oscar says otherwise

And besides leo could have never pulled off the roles in dallas and true detective so I guess fuk him

I think the Oscars got it right

Big ups to my girl Lupita Nyong'o...love this woman...her skin is ridiculous so stunning I can't stop starring at her

12 Years came through as well couldn't be anymore satisfied. Happy for Matthew as well

You know what else helped Matt out? True detective. He's talked about every damn week so that adds to the momentum

sepinwall tweeted yesterday that TD put him over the top.

plus dont forget he had that memorable cameo in wolf

at this point i dont think so. he'll probably get an honorary type award on like they did to hitchcock years later.

if not it'll be when he's older and not really deserving but its payback for years of neglect

They will throw him a bone one day and it will be for a film that is undeserved

yea like when bogart won over brandos performance in streetcar named desire

I respect your opinion when it comes to movies, but Catch Me If You Can is probably the only one on your list that somewhat impressed me.

man catch me if my fav performance of his by far..and it didnt even get an oscar nomination. did for globes though

People don't always realize its what you do right after the role that you're getting acclaim for that can make or break your award chances. Look at Eddie with Norbit. Had it not been for that, he probably would've won for Dreamgirls but when his name was in the media, it was for Norbit, a movie that was critically panned. When Matt's name is in the media, it's been for True Detective, his cameo in Wolf of Wall Street and his work in Dallas Buyer's Club. Those are all home runs

I still think he'll get it for something deserved. Again, he's not old. He just turned 40, who's to say he won't win one in a couple years for whatever dope role he has? Maybe it's just me not being a cynic but he's not at that level yet where he's getting an award for Scent of a Woman when he should've got it for Serpico or Godfather 1 and 2. He's got time. Let's come back to this discussion in 10 years

this is after saying to her that she looked like the best liza minnelli impersonator she'd ever seen

Leo will win eventually. It's probably going to be one of those de facto "lifetime achievement" Oscars in a few years when he's a bit older. He should already have one, though.
