two obvious people...Depp and DiCaprio
 
Laura Dern, especially her stuff when directed under David Lynch
 
Pitt and Cruise, how they haven't won is beyond me.
 
there are a lot of actors that are good enough and i always wonder why they haven't, but then when i look at the roles they have gotten they aren't necessarily ones that oscars look at too often. like Sean Bean, that guys always gold but he hasn't really done anything that was the standout of the year either. same goes for Gary Oldman, though a best supporting nod would have been good for Leon
 
yea, i hear ya...but i think Matt Damon as Will Hunting deserved it over Jack Nicholson in As Good As it Gets
 
Ed Harris!!! There are plenty of films he could've won an Oscar from but wasn't even nominated, what a shame.

Edit: I checked and it looks like he's been nominated a few times actually. But he still hasn't won any Oscars yet...

Eh, Depp hasn't been oscarworthy in a long time.

DiCaprio though has turned has been super solid for a long time. He'll win eventually but I really hope its for a role that he actually deserves it in rather than a "We owe you" Oscar.
 
I'm glad we finally live in a world where Christian Bale is not included in this list.
 
A lot of Oscars end up being legacy things because the actor has been snubbed for so long. Though I am shocked at Morgan Freeman not having one. ****, March of the Penguins he deserved on principle alone.

Morgan Freeman does have one, though. He won for Million Dollar Baby in 2004.

Yeah, you're right, I thought he was nommed for some reason only.
 
How Ralph Fiennes didnt win for Schindler's List, Ill never understand.
 
Oldman, Dicaprio, Pitt....biggest surprises to me...Used to be Bale...but...alas!
 
Can't believe that no one has mentioned Alan Rickman.
 
Robert Downey Jr should have one in each of his rooms, including his bathroom.
 
It's been said but Gary Oldman. Everyone time someone asks this question he's always the first name to come to mind. Then I think of Alan Rickman and Martin Sheen.
