My Thoughts
I know this is coming and as much as i love Leo,i have a feeling that he is not going to be the one Jennifer Lawrence called out for the Best Actor trophy yet again this year. And yes i was correct, it was Matthew who walked away with the trophy last Sunday night.
And if you are going to ask me if Leo is snubbed from the Oscars, my answer to you will be NO, and am going to tell you why :-
Firstly, when you watch both the movies, as much as they are male driven performance oriented movie, you can feel the emotions of Ron Woodroof more than Jordan Belfort.
Secondly, Leo's movie deals with gambling, sex, drugs and shows the perks while Matthew's movie is sex, drugs and rock and roll but shows the other side of it (HIV)
Thirdly, as much as both the movies are biographies,the subject they dealt is so much different and Dallas Buyers Club is much more sensitive comparing to The Wolf of Wall Street which the Oscars love.
Lastly, both the actors are great but Matthew simply did a better job than Leo in a movie which requires so much for him to do, get skinny as hell, not a big budget commercial movie, shot in 25 days and they were looking for a distributor.
And yes movie wise, The Wolf is my much more entertaining and directed by a well known Director but in my opinion i believe Matthew and Jared compliment each other so well comparing the more than annoying Jonah in that movie even though they both got an Oscar nod in their respective categories,and yes they both win.

My suggestions to Leo, do a serious role , lose some weight or gain a lot of weight, get out of a Scorsese's movie and venture into something less commercial and one fine day, your time will come to say your acceptance speech in the big stage.
We love you and we want you to win the Oscar more than you want!!
