I've seen alot of comments over time about Martin Landau (as Bella Lugosi in "Ed Wood") beating Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) and how it was a travesty that Sam didn't win and it drives me mad.

Yes, Samuel was great in PF but he's literally playing himself like in almost every other film he's been in.

Landau's Lugosi is scarily accurate and hilarious whilst at the same time being really sad tbh. Well deserved imo.

I agree about Tommy Lee Jones beating DiCaprio though, that was ridiculous.

Gary Oldman's oscar should've gone to Daniel Kaluuya or Timothee Chalamet.

Viola Davis should've won for The Help when Meryl won for 'The Iron Lady'. Another film, like Oldman's Churchill one, that was pretty average overall and just seemed to pay it forward to a legend rather than a deserving performance.

Also as good as Natalie Portman was in Black Swan, I wish Annette Bening had won for The Kids Are All Right. Or indeed for 'American Beauty' over Hilary Swank's "Boys Don't Cry".

No way in hell did he deserve Wolf of Wall Street over McConaughey's Dallas Buyers Club performance. Never seen the Aviator but Blood Diamond wasn't that great either, Whitaker's Idi Amin was a deserving winner.

I was gonna put Pacino's Dog Day Afternoon, But Jack's Performance in One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest was simply in another league

I Feel Denzil or Robert Downey Jr should have won over Pacino tbh. He Only Won as a Make up Oscar for the Many loses in the Past.

Impressive list, Alf - I agree with them all, especially Hank Fonda for the brilliant Grapes of Wrath.

I'm actually surprised it took so long for Di caprio to get his first Oscar and it was for a movie that I didn't expect , he's pretty much solo isn't he in The Revenant ? It's a survival story . I haven't watched it yet .
