DiCaprio and Larson are pretty much locked down for the wins.
While many seem to be playing the race card saying that Idris Elba was intentionally snubbed in the Supporting Actor category, I think Jacob Tremblay was far more snubbed. I think Rylance or Stallone will get it, but my preference is Ruffalo. He is far and away one of the best actors of our time. Kate Winslet has a good shot at Supporting Actress, but I'd prefer it to be Jennifer Jason Leigh or Alicia Vikander. Both gave superior performances. I was a bit surprised by the Ridley Scott snub. Prior to The Revenant's release, I thought Spotlight for sure had Best Picture. I now think The Revenant is the one to beat. |

While it is completely DiCaprio's year to win and he is no doubt the frontrunner, I would personally love for Eddie Redmayne to take it again. I'm a huge fan of his, and his performance was the strongest in the category.

I'm so glad Disney's Inside Out won the Oscar for Best Animated Movie because I fell in love with Disney's Inside Out when it came out and it's such a cute movie and i'm happy that it won an Oscar. Disney has done it again at The Oscars,

"Rock approached his hosting gig with grander ambitions than being a solution to the academy’s PR problems,” says Willa Paskin. "Rock did not just give an edgy monologue about race to a largely white audience tittering uncomfortably and leave it at that, inoculating the academy and its attendees from the charge of being totally out of touch while allowing them to go on with business as usual after 10 minutes of razzing. Instead, the monologue was just the beginning. Rock proceeded to raise the issue of #OscarsSoWhite throughout the night in funny, provoking, and lively ways. He ensured that the academy stayed on the hook, instead of helping them get off of it.” PLUS: It was a not-boring “hot mess” of a show that, "nakedly and unapologetically, attempted to do something other than hand out a bunch of gold statues,” it was a lucky pairing of host and subject, Rock’s hosting fell apart after that great monologue, Rock’s “medicine” could’ve been stronger in a crossing-the-line way, Rock’s monologue was strong enough to ricochet through the entire evening, Rock gave the film industry a spanking, the introduction of the thank-you scroll proved idiotic, Rock also interviewed black moviegoers for 2005 Oscars, here is all the bloat that let the Oscars run 30 minutes long, and Oscars fell to a 8-year ratings low based on early numbers. |
