Members YRBB Posted February 29, 2016 Members Share Posted February 29, 2016 I was mostly excited about Leo's win because of the Jack/Rose GIF and pics opportunities. And that didn't disappoint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 29, 2016 Members Share Posted February 29, 2016 Being so good or being privileged enough to hand pick whatever role you want to always be a contender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted February 29, 2016 Members Share Posted February 29, 2016 I doubt Leo will win again, let him have his moment in the sun. As for his acting ability, he's an actor that tries many roles, but I don't feel he has enough range to take on some of the roles he's gotten (and didn't deserve an Oscar for most of the years he was nominated).

Members slick jones Posted March 1, 2016 Members Share Posted March 1, 2016 I thought Whoopi looked fantastic. Gaga's rendition of her song with the Survivors on stage was well done. Grohl's song during the In Memoriam was also good. It feels like quite a few others were absent from the segment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 1, 2016 Members Share Posted March 1, 2016 I thought Gaga sounded AWFUL. I think she is trying too hard and it's showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted March 1, 2016 Author Administrator Share Posted March 1, 2016 I don't think those people are huge superstars like Leo is. And for those who are huge, like Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Brad Pitt, Robert Downey Jr., etc, people aren't clamoring for them to win. He was getting this big push because a lot of people recognized the great work he's done, and the amount of times he lost. He was different than those big movie stars who haven't won before. Leo carefully chooses his projects - he doesn't do what everyone is doing. He is one of the biggest movie stars in the world and he hasn't done: a sequel, a franchise, a superhero movie, an animation. What Leo put his mind and body through during the shooting of The Revenant, I definitely wouldn't call that phoning it in. And there's nothing wrong with "whoring around with interchangeable models." He's not married. He's not hurting anyone. He's a huge movie star who is single. He probably has one of if not the best "Murderer's Row" of women, one that rivals Derek Jeter's "Murderer's Row" of women. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted May 1, 2016 Members Share Posted May 1, 2016 No one forced him off. Sounds like he can dish it but not take it. Either that or he needs a thicker skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
