<p>Sorry, I should elaborate. I used to find him incredibly irritating around that time ( Titanic and that movie where he played a retard ). He has definitely grown on me as an actor though.</p> -

<p>That wasn't the issue - he's not in Shakespeare in Love.</p> -

<p>Blood Diamond and that other one with him and Jack Nicholson around the same time was where I became a Leo fan (although still think Revenant sucked)</p> -

<p>Still can't believe Shakespeare in Love won the Oscar in SPR's year.</p>

<p>Don't start. Forrest Gump won against Pulp Fiction, Quiz Show and Shawshank Redemption. And Four Weddings was nominated that year too, God know's how, but knowing Hugh Grant cheap hookers were probably involved somewhere.</p>

<p>Now I don't mind Forrest Gump (the book is a hoot BTW), but Best Picture? Come on.</p> -
<p>This is where I post Raymond Chandler's 1948 essay <em>Oscar Night in Hollywood</em>.</p>

<p>I think Forrest Gump has a better claim to Best Picture than Shakespeare and Juliet even in that company.</p>

<p>Nothing compares to Crash though. I have no idea what was nominated that year but I'll take all of them over Crash.</p> -

Your not taking about Pretty Woman are you. -
<p>Mad Max Fury Road is incredible. A cinematic masterpiece full of physical effects at a time when blockbusters are dominated by CGI.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Personally, I prefer it to 1979 original, but I also prefer Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior to that movie too.</p> -

<p>If you're ( not your ) going to try and take the piss please ensure your ( not you're ) sentences are grammatically perfect and check the spelling or else go and comment on Stuff.co.nz instead.</p>

<p>The newest Mad Max is much better than the very first one, I was thinking the Road Warrior, I always forget there is one prior to that.</p> -

Some of the winners are baffling. Adrian Brody... nuff said. Jodie Foster for Lambs? That farking Italian clown.
