  1. Leo deserves to win finally after so many great and snubbed performances. Mad Max was definitely the best movie of the year. The Academy will blunder and not award either of those what they deserve. It doesn't matter, anyway. I won't be watching.

    1. Hopefully DiCaprio for Best Actor, and I'm on my knees begging for Fury Road to snag Best Picture. At this stage it's a two-horse race between Max and Revenant. The rest are non-starters, IMO.
