1993: Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive) over Leonardo DiCaprio (What's eating Gilbert Grape) is not right.

Leo needs to be in a deep movie, something like a drug addict and he may win.

I didnt even know McConaughey could act before watching Dallas Buyers Club. O_O
He was intense man.

Right? I always saw him as some corny Southern actor who did rom-coms and cheesy movies only women want to see.

Dude really turned his career completely around recently with Mud, Killer Joe, DBC, and True Detective.

I'm guessing you haven't seen the Basketball Diaries.

Not saying he should have won for that movie, just saying he did play a drug addict.

It had one nomination. Don't remember what category it was.

That's crazy to me. Hands down, it was the best movie I've seen all year. Completely kills gravity.

I haven't seen 12 years a slave or that Dallas movie yet.

But I saw a bunch of other movies and Lone Survivor went hard

[BUNGALOWS]

Downloading Dallas Buyers Club and Mud right now. Looking forward to watching both.

Ah OK I haven't seen it.

Maybe he needs to be a washed up fighter working in Mcdonald's.

What movie are you referring to? Drawing a blank.
