Donât worry, other than anything Leo is in, I watch really really really rubbish films too.

Agreed.
Leo films are great. Even the crap ones he makes watchable.
(Apart from the Revenant, J Edgar and Gangs of New York- they are beyond salvation)
Yeah the Revenant was pretty bad I thought. I know Leo got his best actor Oscar for that, but I always felt like it was a case of âlook, there is no standout this year, Leonardo DiCaprio deserves an Oscar for something, letâs just give him this oneâ.

I reckon sheâll say Titanic
Romeo & Juliet is my guess.
I reckon youâre wrong!
@Bl1nk Wolf of Wall Street or Basketball Diaries. Special mention to Romeo and Juliet too, thatâs when I fell in love with him.

Itâs because it delt with a period of injustice, the Academy is literally obsessed with looking like the righteous hand of social fairness, which is a shame because genuinely superb performances go by the wayside to political correctness and appeasement.
Di Caprio could have won for a handful of different roles, Catch me if you can, Shutter Island, The Departed, Wolf.
Sad really but I genuinely think it all goes back to Brando making the Academy look like complete frauds years ago by refusing to accept his reward in relation to the treatment of the native Americans and their representation.
In all honesty theyâve always been a bit of a sham.

Ah yes, Shutter Island. Forgot about that one. He was superb in that.
