2008 Academy Awards

you're the same guy how thinks Leo DiCaprio is the next Marlon Brando? :woot:

Leo is damn talented. Far more so than anyone wants to give him credit for. If he never did Titanic you guys would be holding him on the same pedestal as DDL right now.
 
I couldn't disagree more. He may have had the same visual style as say...Edward Scissorhands, but the role couldn't have been more different.
But compare that to the movies DDL has been in:o
 
I wonder if Paris Hilton's looming outside the auditorium, trying to get a peak. Ya know, since she's been banned from the show.

NO WAY. Dicaprio is not more than an average actor.
 
I miss the skits of the Academy Awards and the hosts being in parodies...
 
I disagree. Depp had an intensity that can't be matched by any of the other candidates, and when you take into account the nature of the movie (a musical) it says a lot.


But but he bust outs singing in that movie......i cant help but giggle, the intensity gone....that's a musical for you.
 
And I'll get DDL back even as he gloats
In the mean time I'll practice on less honorable throats
And my Oscar lies in ashes
And I'll never get a nom again!
But my roles wait!
I'm alive at last!
And I'm full of JOOOOOOOOOY!

:cmad:

Does it matter though? I hate these "make-up awards." They should be judged on what is submitted. Even though Abigail Breslin was young, she should've won last year. She didn't because of her age. These things shouldn't factor in. Depp in my opinion gave the best performance in his movie that was nominated this year. Therefore I think he should've taken it home.

I also love how Stewart said if the writers were still on strike we would get a lot of montages yet they have one after every commercial break.....
 
which one? this one or before this one?

The multiple...appearances of Sidney (especially the one with the whip).

Anyway, I loved Depp in ST and as an actor in general, but DDL earned it. After him I'd say Viggo who from just the five clips got the biggest reaction from the audience and in general after DDL. Then, Depp. But I know if DDL wasn't running Academy politics/worship of big movie stars would have had the Academy step over Mortenson and Depp for Clooney (who thinks he's Hillary Clinton now). So, be glad the Oscar went to someone who did deserve it.
 
I hope Scorsese finally gets it this year.



.....Wait, what?
