Why did Leonardo Di Caprio win the Oscar for his role in The Revenant?.

[Cheek busting]

I think because of the extreme backlash of him never winning an Oscar from so many great roles over the past decade, they reached a bit in giving it to him here.

I liked the movie, thought Leo did a great job of portraying the role, but it is a tad overrated.

I think he should have gotten the Oscar for his role in The Departed.

hardy channeled his best sgt barnes impersonation

I have to agree. I'm a Leo fan but he didn't win for Catch Me, Aviator, Django (supporting) and yet he won for Revenant? Which I found boring and I felt Gleeson was the best actor on show.

then again he was overdue so thats an issue.

I've noticed a trend in American Hollywood, television and Netflix where Alpha male types that are supposed to be American, are being portrayed by Brits and Australians. America is being so pussified that we don't even have enough Alpha males to fill roles of tough, rugged men. Sad state of affairs over here.

Brits are better actors because they actually go to acting schools and have theater background before moving on to film\Tv while American actors \actresses have a modeling background

It's infuriating to me the amount of British actors \actresses on American Tv shows doing a specific American accent like a southerner or Midwestern accent like in Fargo or Westworld or Preacher

i have to agree with this ^, the best brit actors start out doing shakespeare and have serious skills. american actors get roles by being hot and having sex with producers

I've not had anyone refute my claim of Hardy acting circles around Leo...

We all in agreement here?, disgusting, they literally gave Leo an Oscar out of unwarranted pity.

So what he did?

DiCaprio was the leading while Hardy was the supporting actor.

hardy should have been nominated for supporting actor

Hollyweed is so corrupt that i didnt mind leonardo decarpio getting rewarded

Dude has been in so many great performance and was ignored

dicaprio should have got an oscar for the departed, and should have at least been nominated for other films like gangs of NY and maybe Django

[MaD RoBoT]

he did better on Aviator, Departed, Django & even on Wolf of Wall Street

The Departed! I can't believe I forgot that one. In the last decade, he could easily have won 3 Oscars (CMIYC, Departed and Aviator) and this decade, he should at least have been nominated for Django as you said.

Also, Damon missed out on The Martian, his performance lifted that movie by miles. Plus, John Goodman also missed out for 10 Cloverfield Lane, imo his best ever performance.

The Oscars are bull.

The Oscars always does those makeup awards, like Scorsese winning his first best director for departed and not anything before that, or Pacino finally getting his Oscar for scent of a woman over Denzel in Malcolm X.

Pacino should've received an Oscar for Godfather, Scarface, and Carlitos Way before Scent of a Woman.
