The 88th Annual Academy Awards... Much props to Leonardo DiCaprio for finally winning a Best Actor trophy for his role as a vengeful bear attack victim on
The Revenant tonight! Along with Brie Larson
(who won Best Actress for her amazing performance in Room) and Alicia Vikander
(who took home the Best Supporting Actress trophy for The Danish Girl), this makes up for
The Force Awakens getting ravaged by
Mad Max: Fury Road in three of the categories they were both nominated for
(Best Sounding Editing, Sound Mixing and Film Editing). The Force Awakens also lost Best Visual Effects to
Ex Machina and Original Film Score to
The Hateful Eight. Oh well. Maybe
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will win something at the Academy Awards next year...with
Episode VIII after that in February of 2018.
And
Spotlight won Best Picture while
Birdman's Alejandro González Iñárritu repeated as Best Director for helming
The Revenant, yadda yadda yadda. If you want to win an Oscar for Best Original Song, write one for a James Bond flick. Just ask Adele for
Skyfall and now Sam Smith for
Spectre. Carry on.
