Awards & Nominations

10 GG noms...2 wins...(They really really really like him)

“And now, like a supermodel’s vagina, let’s all give a warm welcome to Leonardo DiCaprio.” (Now, that was funny)

[foeller]

Yesterday was perfect for Leo. Not only did he win, but the fact McConaughey won instead of Ejiofor also means that Ejiofor isn't as big a favorite as we thought. Of course GG and the Oscars don't have any overlap in terms of members, but at least we won't see a sweep from Ejiofor as expected.

Considering how much HFPA reportedly didn't like WOWWS I think Leo's win is really positive, especially over a veteran like Bruce Dern. Hustle was just easier to embrace, so no shock there at all. But I actually didn't expect WOWWS to win anything so I went to bed early.

I was wrong. The coke is going in. The coke is going IN. We have confirmation from Leo...
(I can`t believe that Access Hollywood presenters!!! were the 1st and only who asked Leo about that after all this time)

thanks, nas He was trying to avoid answering but they wouldn't relent!

Congratulations to Leo on his win. I'm also glad the film was mentioned several times last night. Can't hurt

Sasha Stone @ Deadline Hollywood talking Academy Awards post the Golden Globes

Likewise, Mr. DiCaprio could become a threat in the Best Actor category – should he even receive a nomination. Best Actor is even more cramped than Actress and these voters are going to have to really love Wolf of Wall Street to allow him in. His appearance at the Globes was interesting. His mere presence caused such a stir. Like McConaughey, he has been acting so long, pulling out characters from dark places — and yet has never gotten an Oscar for it. DiCaprio is a Prince turned King in Hollywood now. That was evident at the Globes. He has at last graduated from the younger actor we all fell in love with in Titanic. His performance in Wolf of Wall Street is a revelation. He can’t really compete with McConaughey in the likable character department. Leo plays a Wolf so loathsome (especially to men, I’ve found) that they would rather chew off their own arm than give him their vote. Many of them likely didn’t finish the Wolf screener because if you can’t get past that first rough 45 minutes you’ll never know the beauty, the perfection of Wolf of Wall Street. To me, DiCaprio’s is the Performance of the Year, alongside some very formidable work from Robert Redford, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Bruce Dern, Tom Hanks, and yes, McConaughey.

For DiCaprio to get into the Best Actor race he has to bump one of the solid five – and who is that going to be? Everyone will say Robert Redford because actors like to do two things in movies: show their face and talk. Redford acts the entire film without dialogue — that could be why the SAG voters shunned his exceptional work, and could be why the actors in the Academy do same. Their whole professions revolve around their face and the words they speak. Only hard core old timer actors, like Actors Studio actors, really know that acting is about so much more than words. And yet…Redford is likely the one who might take the hit should DiCaprio break through.

Both Adams and DiCaprio might have to rest with their Globes, or perhaps their BAFTAS, as the end of their awards journey. Or else, we will hear their names called on Thursday morning. It’s an interesting situation, don’t you think?

I don`t really care but what kind of nonsense is that. Really. Did she forget who won the Oscar 2 years ago?. Are u kidding me?
And she`s supposed to be an ``expert``?...PFFF...

[sikri06]

Yeah, she's wrong about Redford. The reason why neither SAG nor BAFTA nominated him was because so few people saw All is Lost, not that it is silent. And the title doesn't invite people to see it if voters get a screener. Stone also uses the word "solid" about Ejiofor, McConaughey, Dern, Hanks AND Redford, when Redford has been shown little support so far outside of the critic groups. She is right about the other four though being solid though.
