I hope he gets it, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if he didn't.

He won the Golden Globe. You are usually a shoe in when winning that award. Dicaprio is gonna win. Redmayne was phenomenal and deserves the award if you ask me. Not sure who was asking but Mad Max Fury Road was horrible.

He's won Golden Globes in the past and lost the Oscar though. The dudes body of work is so impressive when you think about it. He could have won the AA for at least 6 of his flicks.

Hes certainly worthy of an Oscar most years. He really has a knack for choosing the right roles and has improved at his trade film to film. Lots of people grow stagnant and can't evolve, but Dicaprio is the ultimate acting chameleon. Even at a very young age he was a rather commanding character in anything he chose. Basketball Diaries comes to mind.

I'd say he's a shoe in if it weren't for his history of getting snubbed.

I believe that will be the deciding factor. You can't deny him this year. And the award goes to Eddie Redmayne...................I'd like to dedicate this award to Leonardo Dicaprio.

Right now I would give DiCaprio the edge over the rest of them but Fassbender of Redmayne might rip it from him.

Anyone else rooting for Rylance to win Best Supporting Actor?
Bridge Of Spies was alright, nothing special, but his performance was amazing.
Not that Hardy wouldn't deserve the award as well.
