I would respectfully disagree, and Leo is my favorite actor. He should have 3 Oscars IMO: Gilbert, Django, Wolf. The year he won for Revenant, it should have gone to Fassbender for Steve Jobs.
If he was nominated in Django, he would've been up against Christoph Waltz for the same movie. Waltz deserved it tho. Leo had one scene that he stole but Waltz had like the entire movie
It's almost criminal that Denzel didn't get an Oscar for his portrayal in "Malcolm X". Joaquin also should have gotten the Oscar for his supporting role in "Gladiator"
That was the year Al Pacino's turn in "Scent of A Woman" beat Denzel Washington's "Malcolm X." Academy politics: Denzel already had a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for "Glory" (1989) and Pacino with no wins after 6 nominations. It's rumored that Denzel actually voted for Pacino.
He should’ve won for all his performances in the 70s every single performance was flawless. He is such a legend he was also brilliant in Heat and Scarface.
Anthony Hopkins has equalled Nicholson’s Legacy imo...Hopkins is the same age as Nicholson yet the latter is retired from acting and the former got an oscar nod this year..
@@buffytheinternetbullyslayer No not for titanic.Roberto Benigni received Best Actor that year and he deserved it.He made people laugh and cry in "Life is Beautiful".Titanic isn’t Dicaprio's best performance
What about Julianne Moore? Her performance in Still Alice was out of the world, but her performance in Magnolia and Far from heaven definitely should've bagged an Oscar earlier to this phenomenon performer.
Norton's performance I think is one of the greatest acting performances ever. That's a year where I look at and am like, yeah no excuse why he didn't get it.
Most of these actors like Denzel Washington and Leonardo DiCaprio I feel like should get an Oscar for most of their movies because they’re awesome in all the movies that they’re in 😂😂
Al Pacino he is the best,iconic and awesome actor ever in Hollywood in all the time and I like when he became other characters in different famous movies
I hate to say this, but it lost for two reasons: It had a mostly black cast, and Spielberg produced and directed it. Oscar st the time, frowned down on both.
Everytime I see anything having to do with Shakespeare In Love, all I can think of is Brenda from Scary Movie saying shake a spear in love over the phone in the theater
That's not the point. The point is the irony of finally winning in a year we didn't want it as much, we think they didn't deserve it as much or the hype was gone.
Morgan Freeman, should have won an Oscar for the movie “Shawshank Redemption,“ of his best!! And Denzel Washington, should Definitely won an Oscar for his role as Malcolm X!! I still use the words “bamboozle and hoodwink”!!
When Morgan Freeman would have won an Oscar for ‚Shawshank Redemption‘, today, many people would say that Tom Hans should have won an Oscar for ‚Forrest Gump‘! There can be only one per year. And that was a year with two great performances!
@@Joao-hl5cg Funny, I was pretty sure that this answer would coming. Yes, Travolta was very good in Pulp Fiction, but I think not quiet as good as Freeman and specialy Hanks!
Yes, very good point. The point is that they’re great actors, not necessarily which role. But the actors who didn’t deserve an Oscar in my opinion were Tommy Lee Jones for the Fugitive and Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side. Neither of those performances were Oscar worthy in my opinion
Doesn't matter to me either. All the same. As long as they got the recognition. Eventually. Probably not so much to people who were nominated alongside them on the years that their portrayals weren't as strong but won.
@@awizardintraining the reason I didn’t like either one of their performances was because there was nothing special about them 🤷♂️ TLJ played a detective… whoopty do! What’s so great about that? Do you know how many actors have played detectives before? And all Sandra Bullock played was a mom who takes in a homeless kid… again what’s so special about that? There roles weren’t hard to play at all
Actors who should have an Oscar but don’t: Alan Rickman Johnny Depp Ralph Fiennes Helena Bonham Carter Julie Walters Imelda Staunton Amy Addams Saoirse Ronan Timothee Chalamet Andrew Garfield Glenn Close
Is it just me or do some of these Oscar wins seem like the academy is throwing a bone to an actor for overlooking them when they were in outstanding roles?
These things are voted on by a lot of people in the film industry. It's not like the academy is five white guys that get together and feel bad that Pacino hasn't won an Oscar. Also, some people give it to the older person cause they feel three younger still has time to get an Oscar, which is why some were passed by early in their careers.
I agree with this list, however there are a few more id like to mention. Jack Nicholson for the Shining, Robert Deniro for Cape fear, Toni Collete for Hereditary, are amongst those that come off the top of my head.
Freeman not winning an Oscar in Shawshank is still a travesty. Hanks was great in Forrest Gump but Shawshank and his role still stands as one of the best films ever
Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption are two of the best movies of all time. It's just too bad they came out in the same year. If they had come out in different years, they both would have cleaned up!
@@rickjend6667 I know right. That's exactly how I feel. I wish the "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Green Mile" switched years. Then Morgan Freeman would've won and "The Shawshank Redemption" would've won Best Picture! But that's my opinion.
He should’ve won it for Django Unchained even more...considering the fact that Waltz’s performance in Django Unchained wasn’t better than Leo’s performance in the same film and Matthew’s performance in DBC was better than Leo’s performance in TWOWS..
Leo should've at least won 1 at a very young age. That movie when he was a kid dealing with an abusive step father was...gosh that performance was so good.
The thing with DiCaprio is that it’s just hard which one he should’ve won for I feel like he has done his best in every single movie he fucking delivered so I feel like his career deserves an Oscar
Agree on that. But they nominated him for, Blood diamond? I mean, he was good in that one, but Djumon Honsou (sorry if I didn't spelled it right) stole the spotlight in that one. In 'the departed' I feel he gave a better performance.
When claiming that an actor should've won the Oscar for a certain role, it's important to find out who the other nominees were. I've heard people claim that Leonardo DiCaprio, Ralph Fiennes, & Val Kilmer should've won Best Supporting Actor for "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", "Schindler's List", & "Tombstone" respectively. Not knowing that all three were from the same year (66th Academy Awards). The other nominees were Tommy Lee Jones in "The Fugitive", John Malkovich in "In the Line of Fire", & Pete Postlethwaite "In the Name of the Father". Other snubs include Ben Kingsley in "Schindler's List", Sean Penn in "Carlito's Way", certain actors in "True Romance", etc...
@@NSnicket That's exactly what I'm talking about, most people mainly compare their picks to the winner. The point is that you also have to compare your pick to the other nominees & snubs: Arnie Grape, Amon Goth, Doc Holliday, Giuseppe Conlon, Itzhak Stern, David Kleinfeld, etc...
Then you should look at 'Dallas Buyers Club'. McConaughey was teriffic there! That role was so ambious and he handled it perfect! And we he did was his body wa a real torture what deserved a lot of respect. Leos performance in ‚Wall of Wall Street‘ was also awesome and deserved an oscar, no question. But to loose against McConaughey’s performance in Dalls Buyers Club was totally okay!
I loved Robin Williams performance in Good Will Hunting but I feel that he should have won for Dead Poets Society and should have at least been nominated for Mrs. Doubtfire.🥰❤️
Whoopi Goldberg won an Oscar for "Best Supporting Actress" from 'Ghost.' The only Hollywood movie that made me cry for the first time when I was a little boy.
Really? Wolf of Wall Street over the One-Two Punch of SHUTTER ISLAND and Inception in the same year? Shutter Island utterly breaks me, the preformances are so richly emotional for, especially for not being a drama. Good alternates for Jack Nicholson would be The Shining, About Schmidt, The Two Jakes, The Departed, Five Easy Pieces, and I know there's more from the 70s and 80s.
I cannot believe you missed Bette Davis for Dangerous in 1935. It was the very very first consolation Oscar for not giving it to her the previous year for Of Human Bondage (she wasn't even initially nominated, they had to put a write-in vote because the whole country was up in arms)
I agree and if they’d have given Pacino 1 just 1 for playing Micheal Corleone that’s what would’ve happened. Because Pacino won that year when Denzel should’ve. Look up who beat Pacino those two years, talk about a travesty
I couldn't possibly disagree more about James Cagney! His Oscar win for Yankee Doodle Dandee was well deserved and many fans of Cagney consider this to be his best performance, a true testament to his acting range.
Renee Zellweger- Cold Mountain Julianne Moore- Still Alice Shirley MacClaine- Terms of endearment Penelope Cruz- Vicky Christina Barcelona Viola Davis- Fences Gary Oldman- Darkest Hour
Heath Ledger. Yeah he was amazing as the Joker in Dark Knight but his acting was perfection in Brokeback Mountain. He doesn't even have to say much but you still know exactly what is going through his mind.
@@yr77411 Joaquin Phoenix deserved that shit more than most. He learned to sing and play the gutar, his mannerisms and movements were exactly the same as Johnny Cash (if I hadn't seen his face I would have sworn it was the same man), and the overall performance was brilliance. Tough year though, because Brokeback was also an amazing movie with amazing actors.
Leo’s performance in Wolf of Wall Street was landmark work. He was a wrecking ball throughout. Funny and scary in equal measure. That speech to the firm where he refuses to leave was worthy unto itself. And not because I liked what he said. But because it hews so close to reality it felt like a documentary.
I've got to say, a lot of these are roles that deserved Oscars, just that they deserved Oscars for the other roles too. For example, DiCaprio was excellent in The Revenant, it gave me a whole new respect for his acting talent. It wasn't quite Daniel Day-Lewis in The Crucible or Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man but it was a pretty powerful performance.
There was no way the Academy would have given an award to THE SHINING, especially not with Stephen King being vocal about NOT being able to voice his opinion and the way Kubrick treated Shelley Duvall.
Colour Purple was amazing! Last film i saw on the big screen just before covid hit. A local theatre had it playing as a classic screening. Not many were there and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house but I remember there was an African American guy there with his daughter, and a white guy with his daughter. What a film to see for the first time on the big screen.
John Goodman he is the hilarious,funniest and iconic actor ever in Hollywood and in theaters and he deserves an Oscar and I like when he became Sully in the universe of Monster Inc
I remember at the time that Henry Fonda’s win in On Golden Pond was a “Lifetime Achievement Award”. It’s sad that he wasn’t even nominated for 12 Angry Men. Looking over his filmography and learning he was only nominated for Best Actor twice is mind boggling!
His performance in The Grapes of Wrath was phenomenal. I am still kind of upset that his friend Jimmy Stewart got it instead of him. Jimmy should’ve won for It’s a Wonderful Life his most iconic role.
Jack Nicholson actually won 3 Oscars: ,,One flew over the cuckoo’s nest” leading actor; ,,Terms of Endearment” supporting actor and ,,As good as it gets” leading actor...
Christian Bale has one Academy Award win, for best supporting actor. His performance in The Fighter was amazing. But it's ridiculous that he doesn't have an Oscar for a leading role.
Art Carney won for Harry and Tonto, denying Al Pacino in Godfather. Al Pacino winning for SOAW denied Denzel Washington for Malcolm X, thus necessitating (in the Academy's mind) the Training Day win. A similar cycle has occurred many times.
I believe DiCaprio should have won for What's Eating Gilbert Grape, as well as Catch me If you Can, The Aviator, The Departed, Gangs of New York, Django Unchained, The Wolf of Wall Street, and, even, probably Titanic. Imo. Especially, when it was believed to be Oscar performed.
I hate this idea of actors winning for one role instead of another because it suggests that they only deserved one Oscar. Many deserve multiple Oscars for their work.
I don't think it's that they should only have one Oscar, but that the particular role they got it for wasn't their best work and they should have gotten it for a better performance. That's not to say that if they got it for one performance, they couldn't deserve another one if the acting warranted it. Just that the one they got it for wasn't one of those performances.
One of the biggest upsets at the 2021 Oscars this year in my opinion, has to include the late and talented Chadwick Boseman, and him not winning the Oscar for Best Actor. Instead it went to Anthony Hopkins, who didn't even attend.. but was actually home, fast asleep the moment it was announced that he was the winner😴 it's true! He had to rewatch it on TiVo when he woke up the next day lol
Totally agree with this list!!! You completely nail it!!! In my opinion, all of these actors deserve an award long before they got it, but the Academy gave awards to them as a way of compesating not giving them the ones they truly deserve. And I also agree with some of the comments, they deserve more than one award.
My list: - Glen Close: Very talented and no win yet - Annette Bening: Again extremely talented and still no win - Amy Adams: Was not lucky enough to win - Michelle Williams: She still has not won the Academy award but I feel she will. Very talented. - Kathy Bates: Why she was not even nominated for Dolores Claiborne? - Morgan Freeman: Definitely should've won for The Shawshank Redemption - Kate Winslet: Her first Oscar should have been for Titanic. She was the best that year. She deserved it very much for The Reader. - Ellen Burstyn: The Academy jury must have been too high not to award her for Requiem for a Dream. - Bette Davis: Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. Again she was robbed! She truly deserved it.
Yes! The Public Enemy. That film is so classic for its time, and is still respectable today. White Heat, Scarface (1932), and Little Caesar are necessities if you like B/W gangster films.
Speaking of actors in B/W gangster films, I need to bring up Paul Muni. Never won an Oscar, and wasn't nominated for "I'm a Fugitive From a Chain Gang".
Can I just say that Marlon Brando was robbed of the best actor Oscar when Humphrey Bogart won for the African Queen instead of Brando winning for A Streetcar Named Desire. Had Brando won the best actor Oscar then that film would have been the first film to win all four acting oscars. No film has done that to this day
I 100% agree with the Leo one. I think he only got it for Revenant because of the outcry of him not getting it the previous year I believe it was. Don’t get me wrong, he was great in Revenant
Leo defiantly deserved an Oscar for The Reverent. Since that was such a tough movie to shoot. And he truly gave it his all. But, he also deserved an Oscar for his role in Man In The Iron Mask & as Arnie from What's Eating Gilbert Grape. Both those movies were amazing!! And his performances were outstanding in both films!!
Jim Carrey he deserves to win an Oscar because he is the funniest,hilarious and coolest comedian actor ever in Hollywood and this actor given us our childhood
You can also add Frederic March for winning Best Actor in a Leading Role The Best Year's of Our Lives. While his performance was good the Oscar really should have gone to Jimmy Stewart for It's a Wonderful Life. Plus no offense but I found March's performance was more supporting than leading. To me the leading actor for Best Year's of Our Lives was Dana Andrews.
This Boy's Life What's Eating Gilbert Grape? The Basketball Diaries Romeo + Juliet Titanic The Beach Gangs of New York Catch Me If You Can The Aviator The Departed Blood Diamond Revolutionary Road Shutter Island Inception Django Unchained The Great Gatsby The Wolf of Wall Street The Revenant Once Upon A Time In Hollywood LDC is truly one of the greatest actors of all time, how he only has one Oscar is beyond me.
Why do people disregard Leo's role in the Revenant? He was brilliant in the role. Did he have better roles? Yes. However, did he deserve an Oscar for The Revenant? Absolutely.
It was an outstanding performance. I have never been so happy for an Oscar win. One of the happiest moments of my life. But he should have won several more prior to that...Gilbert Grape, The Aviator, Blood Diamond, The Wolf ofWall Street...and The Basketball Diaries should have gotten nominated...its insanity that he was not nominated for Revolutionar Road and Shutter Island. And seriously...he should have been nominated AND WON for Django Unchained...better than Christopher Waltz as good as he was.
I disagree: Jack nicholson(As good as it gets) Morgan freeman(Million dollar baby) Leonardo dicaprio(The revenant) Alicia vikander(The danish girl) Others: Tommy lee jones(The fugitive) Robin williams(Good will hunting) Renee zellweger(Cold mountain) Kate winslet(The reader) Julianne moore(Still Alice) Will smith(King Richards) Jessica chastain(The eyes of Tammy)
The first time I saw "Gilbert Grape" I hadn't heard of Leo DiCaprio and thought he was a real kid with a disability. At the time I was working at a "institution" taking care of people like him and it was just too convincing! The movie finally showed the world that developmental disabilities aren't always easy to deal with. Truly amazing job he did!
Peter Ustinov won best supporting actor for "Spartacus", but should've won for "Quo Vadis". He made Nero such an insane tyrant. Oh well, at least that role got him a Golden Globe.
I watched 'Angels with Dirty faces' when I was only about 8 or 9....it affected me profoundly, and was my favorite film for many years. It's so good. I highly recommend it
Pacino and De Niro should have AT LEAST one more oscar under their belt. A.P. for any of the godfathers, serpico or glengarry´s as a supporting role. And R.D. for Awakening and Goodfellas running in the same year 1990. And Taxi Driver, 1900, Last Tycoon also simultaneously in 1976.
The day that he won the Oscar for The Revenant, my sister and I were jumping with joy. I believe that he should have won for The Aviator and Blood Diamond. I have not seen The Wolf of Wall Street yet.
@@kiaraeijo almost no one mentions Blood Diamond. That is my favourite performance from Leo. And the Oscar definitely should have been his for that one. Captivating performance.
Liz definitely should have had a couple more Oscars (Suddenly Last Summer & Giant), but after a recent reviewing of Butterfield 8 I have to say it was a really solid performance in an OK movie.
The fact that Al Pacino has just one Oscar win (which is not for the Godfather) is just insulting.....like the Guy is one of the greatest actors of all time....
The Oscar (though not always) goes the best performance of the year. Sometimes an actor gives their best performance but it’s not the best of that year. Likewise sometimes an actor’s second or third best performances is the best performance in that particular year. Sometimes the Academy makes a mistake and tries to correct it (Judi Dench in Shakespeare’s making up for Mrs Brown).

Which actor should have won an Oscar but never did? Let us know in the comments!
Jim Carrey,John Goodman and Scarlet Johansson
Amy Adams.
Naomi Watts.
Ewan McGregor.
Quvenzhané Wallis.
She deserved the Oscar
I mean, Leo definitely deserved to win for The Revenant, it just shouldn't have been his first
I would respectfully disagree, and Leo is my favorite actor. He should have 3 Oscars IMO: Gilbert, Django, Wolf. The year he won for Revenant, it should have gone to Fassbender for Steve Jobs.
He should've won the oscar for the Aviator and departed
No, Fassbender deservs more for Steve Jobs
No he didn't
@@Вармохмейнер agreed, Leo is a good actor. But he just can't transform into the characters , just the personality.
Leo definitely deserved one for wolf of Wall Street. Possibly Django but he didn’t just act in those movies, he became the character.
I feel the opposite
He doesn’t become the character, It feels like acting too hard
If he was nominated in Django, he would've been up against Christoph Waltz for the same movie. Waltz deserved it tho. Leo had one scene that he stole but Waltz had like the entire movie
@@800Ms-k6n that’s a very good point actually
@@800Ms-k6n Waltz was a lead, not a supporting character
@@frankcarlosnajera9723 Are you this dumb? You think Jamie is the supporting?? Says who Waltz is the supporting?? 😂
It's almost criminal that Denzel didn't get an Oscar for his portrayal in "Malcolm X". Joaquin also should have gotten the Oscar for his supporting role in "Gladiator"
That was the year Al Pacino's turn in "Scent of A Woman" beat Denzel Washington's "Malcolm X." Academy politics: Denzel already had a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for "Glory" (1989) and Pacino with no wins after 6 nominations. It's rumored that Denzel actually voted for Pacino.
Denzel should had a Oscar for Malcolm X Pacino should had won his for Godfather.
Jim Carrey should’ve won (or at least been nominated) for Man on the Moon
Denzel Washington should have also won fir Hurricane. Kevin Spacey won for American beauty. WTF!
Courage under Fire, Remember the Titans, Malcolm X, the Hurricane, and he wins it for Training day, Training day, made no sense to me!!!
Honorable mention for Ellen Burstyn. Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore was okay but she deserved it more for Requiem for a Dream.
Agreed as well as for the exorcist
One of the best female performances of all time....
I agree, her performance in Requiem was amazing, the whole cast was amazing.
The Exorcist too.
I Totally agree with Jessica Lange should of won For Frances. Over Hollywood's favorite Meryl Streep.
Al Pacino, one of my most favorite Hollywood film actors of all time.
He deserved an Oscar indeed.
He deserves best actor of all time award if it was an award
He should've won many times in his career so as paul newman the color of money was a make up oscar so as al pacino in scent of a woman
He should’ve won for all his performances in the 70s every single performance was flawless. He is such a legend he was also brilliant in Heat and Scarface.
So did the dude
I still wish he Won one for the godfather 1 or 2 at least? Stupid Oscars.
Speaking of Jack Nicholson, happy 84th birthday to the Hollywood film legend and Oscar winner himself.
he's the best actor to me.
Speaking of Hollywood Legends.....Happy 80th to Al Pacino (25th April).
Anthony Hopkins has equalled Nicholson’s Legacy imo...Hopkins is the same age as Nicholson yet the latter is retired from acting and the former got an oscar nod this year..
His take on the Joker was fantastic. Had he won the Oscar, the crime prince of crime would had three trophies for each actor.
It stinks he doesn't act any more, but yes the man is much older now. I hope he is well.
In all seriousness in almost all of Leonardo’s roles deserved him An Oscar, basketball diaries especially
Yes. He was amazing in that movie!! I think he should have gotten one for titanic too
100%! BD is one of my favorite movies and best Leo performances ever!!
Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most overrated actors of all time....even Jake Gyllenhaal is a better actor than him..
I am still pissed that he didn’t win for what’s eating Gilbert Grape. That performance was flawless.
@@buffytheinternetbullyslayer No not for titanic.Roberto Benigni received Best Actor that year and he deserved it.He made people laugh and cry in "Life is Beautiful".Titanic isn’t Dicaprio's best performance
What about Julianne Moore? Her performance in Still Alice was out of the world, but her performance in Magnolia and Far from heaven definitely should've bagged an Oscar earlier to this phenomenon performer.
Edward Norton should’ve won for American History X and Samuel L. Jackson should’ve won for Pulp Fiction.
Norton's performance I think is one of the greatest acting performances ever. That's a year where I look at and am like, yeah no excuse why he didn't get it.
I agree that Leonardo DeCaprio should have gotten an Oscar for the Wolf of Wall Street.
Nah, McConaughey deserved it that year and he was going to win no matter the scenario. DiCaprio shouldn't have even been nominated.
No Shutter Island
Most of these actors like Denzel Washington and Leonardo DiCaprio I feel like should get an Oscar for most of their movies because they’re awesome in all the movies that they’re in 😂😂
Denzel is one of my favorites.
Al Pacino he is the best,iconic and awesome actor ever in Hollywood in all the time and I like when he became other characters in different famous movies
EVERYBODY knows he shoulda won for Scarface (1983).
I was his favourite
Precisely, but after Pacino won an Oscar for "Scent of a Woman", he seemed to scream in all of his subsequent roles.
Marlon Brando?
@@thetevinator7083 He should've first won for Godfather Part 2.
The Color Purple was an amazing film. I still can’t believe it didn’t win a single Oscar. Whoopi was amazing in it
I hate to say this, but it lost for two reasons: It had a mostly black cast, and Spielberg produced and directed it. Oscar st the time, frowned down on both.
So, the Oscar's are racist🤔.... say something not so obvious.. at that time! What did Spielberg do or who did he tick off that year??
Everytime I see anything having to do with Shakespeare In Love, all I can think of is Brenda from Scary Movie saying shake a spear in love over the phone in the theater
hahaha that scene is hilarious!
@@baileyanderson244 For real. To this day I can't finish watching Shakespeare In Love without laughing because I happened to see Scary Movie first!
Joaquin Phoenix should have won an Oscar for his role as Johnny Cash in Walk the Line
100%
I agree!
Also for the master
I keep forgetting that he didn't
Should have gotten the Supporting Actor Oscar for Gladiator! Creepiest Roman Emperor Ever!
Maybe there weren't better performances in the years they won them.
That's not the point. The point is the irony of finally winning in a year we didn't want it as much, we think they didn't deserve it as much or the hype was gone.
Not really
There’s no way that Saving Private Ryan didn’t deserve an Oscar for best film. That rat bastard Weinstein and a spineless Academy is to blame for that
Blamin blamin bla bla bla
I mean Leo cut open his hand in one role on accident I feel like that was pure commitment and it be Oscar worthy
Morgan Freeman, should have won an Oscar for the movie “Shawshank Redemption,“ of his best!! And Denzel Washington, should Definitely won an Oscar for his role as Malcolm X!! I still use the words “bamboozle and hoodwink”!!
Yes!! I 100% agree
When Morgan Freeman would have won an Oscar for ‚Shawshank Redemption‘, today, many people would say that Tom Hans should have won an Oscar for ‚Forrest Gump‘! There can be only one per year. And that was a year with two great performances!
@@jenshanel1042 three actually, john travolta was really good too in pulp fiction!!
@@Joao-hl5cg Funny, I was pretty sure that this answer would coming. Yes, Travolta was very good in Pulp Fiction, but I think not quiet as good as Freeman and specialy Hanks!
Oscars SUCK they give the awards to the wrong movies
Pacino was amazing in Serpico. He and Lumet were incredible together.
He was flawless in Serpico. Pacino should’ve won pure and simple!
My favourite performance of the actor
Good movie but Dog Day Afternoon was better.
Doesn't matter for which role they got oscars, they all deserved it...
Yes, very good point. The point is that they’re great actors, not necessarily which role. But the actors who didn’t deserve an Oscar in my opinion were Tommy Lee Jones for the Fugitive and Sandra Bullock for The Blind Side. Neither of those performances were Oscar worthy in my opinion
@@nsasupporter7557 ur opinion doesn't matter at all
Doesn't matter to me either. All the same. As long as they got the recognition. Eventually.
Probably not so much to people who were nominated alongside them on the years that their portrayals weren't as strong but won.
@@nsasupporter7557 I'll side with you on TLJ, but not on Sandra
@@awizardintraining the reason I didn’t like either one of their performances was because there was nothing special about them 🤷♂️ TLJ played a detective… whoopty do! What’s so great about that? Do you know how many actors have played detectives before? And all Sandra Bullock played was a mom who takes in a homeless kid… again what’s so special about that? There roles weren’t hard to play at all
Actors who should have an Oscar but don’t:
Alan Rickman
Johnny Depp
Ralph Fiennes
Helena Bonham Carter
Julie Walters
Imelda Staunton
Amy Addams
Saoirse Ronan
Timothee Chalamet
Andrew Garfield
Glenn Close
The Oscars are a joke. The fact that Glenn Close and Judy Davis don’t have one yet is beyond criminal
They're not a joke. But i do agree some of their decisions are questionable.
It’s obviously so political right? 🤦♀️
Add Angela Bassett to the list too.
Is it just me or do some of these Oscar wins seem like the academy is throwing a bone to an actor for overlooking them when they were in outstanding roles?
These things are voted on by a lot of people in the film industry. It's not like the academy is five white guys that get together and feel bad that Pacino hasn't won an Oscar. Also, some people give it to the older person cause they feel three younger still has time to get an Oscar, which is why some were passed by early in their careers.
I agree with this list, however there are a few more id like to mention. Jack
Nicholson for the Shining, Robert Deniro for Cape fear, Toni Collete for Hereditary, are amongst those that come off the top of my head.
Freeman not winning an Oscar in Shawshank is still a travesty. Hanks was great in Forrest Gump but Shawshank and his role still stands as one of the best films ever
Hanks was more believable
Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption are two of the best movies of all time. It's just too bad they came out in the same year. If they had come out in different years, they both would have cleaned up!
@@rickjend6667 I know right. That's exactly how I feel. I wish the "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Green Mile" switched years. Then Morgan Freeman would've won and "The Shawshank Redemption" would've won Best Picture! But that's my opinion.
What role then should Tom Hanks win an Oscar for Best Leading Actor then?
Leonardo DiCaprio really deserve Oscar for The Wolf of Wall Street 😞
He should’ve won it for Django Unchained even more...considering the fact that Waltz’s performance in Django Unchained wasn’t better than Leo’s performance in the same film and Matthew’s performance in DBC was better than Leo’s performance in TWOWS..
Honestly, Matthew in Dallas Buyers Club and chiwetel ejiofor in 12 Years A Slave were equally good
His only good role
Agreed, if Matthew McConaughey wasn't already nominated that same year, than he might have been more successful.
What's Eating Gilbert Grape as well.
Leo should've at least won 1 at a very young age. That movie when he was a kid dealing with an abusive step father was...gosh that performance was so good.
Think it's called this boys life 🤔
@@shoesagogo1 if i remember correctly, robert de niro was the abusive dad.
Yeah, that was This Boys Life :)
DiCaprio should definitely won an Oscar for "The Departed", ain't no doubt about that.
The thing with DiCaprio is that it’s just hard which one he should’ve won for I feel like he has done his best in every single movie he fucking delivered so I feel like his career deserves an Oscar
Agree on that. But they nominated him for, Blood diamond? I mean, he was good in that one, but Djumon Honsou (sorry if I didn't spelled it right) stole the spotlight in that one. In 'the departed' I feel he gave a better performance.
When claiming that an actor should've won the Oscar for a certain role, it's important to find out who the other nominees were. I've heard people claim that Leonardo DiCaprio, Ralph Fiennes, & Val Kilmer should've won Best Supporting Actor for "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", "Schindler's List", & "Tombstone" respectively. Not knowing that all three were from the same year (66th Academy Awards). The other nominees were Tommy Lee Jones in "The Fugitive", John Malkovich in "In the Line of Fire", & Pete Postlethwaite "In the Name of the Father". Other snubs include Ben Kingsley in "Schindler's List", Sean Penn in "Carlito's Way", certain actors in "True Romance", etc...
I really feel Malkovich deserved it that year. Definitely more than Jones.
@@NSnicket That's exactly what I'm talking about, most people mainly compare their picks to the winner. The point is that you also have to compare your pick to the other nominees & snubs: Arnie Grape, Amon Goth, Doc Holliday, Giuseppe Conlon, Itzhak Stern, David Kleinfeld, etc...
@@jp3813 I have compared and that’s my personal opinion. Sorry we disagree.
@@NSnicket I never said I disagreed or agreed.
I really dont know how Leo didnt win an Oscar for Wolf of Wall Street
Then you should look at 'Dallas Buyers Club'. McConaughey was teriffic there! That role was so ambious and he handled it perfect! And we he did was his body wa a real torture what deserved a lot of respect. Leos performance in ‚Wall of Wall Street‘ was also awesome and deserved an oscar, no question. But to loose against McConaughey’s performance in Dalls Buyers Club was totally okay!
Im sorry but Matthew deserved that oscar and jared deserved the support role
@@jenshanel1042 and his performance is believable
Oscars are full of it.
if this list wasn't limited to just actors then ennio morricone would have been on here for literally all of his music before the Hateful 8
I still wish he won the Oscar for, The Good, The Bad and Ugly. That was a great soundtrack.
I know, right!!!! His film scores are transcendent!
@@amberjohnson4820 they will definitely outlive us all. Timeless work.
You are forgetting his best masterpiece!! ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA!!
@@gregorywilliams5606 although that is probably his best my personal favourite is the watch chime from For a few dollars more
I loved Robin Williams performance in Good Will Hunting but I feel that he should have won for Dead Poets Society and should have at least been nominated for Mrs. Doubtfire.🥰❤️
Another movie he should’ve also been nominated for is Awakenings
Whoopi Goldberg won an Oscar for "Best Supporting Actress" from 'Ghost.'
The only Hollywood movie that made me cry for the first time when I was a little boy.
Yes, that is literally covered in the very first entry. The point is that she SHOULD have won for The Color Purple.
Really? Wolf of Wall Street over the One-Two Punch of SHUTTER ISLAND and Inception in the same year? Shutter Island utterly breaks me, the preformances are so richly emotional for, especially for not being a drama.
Good alternates for Jack Nicholson would be The Shining, About Schmidt, The Two Jakes, The Departed, Five Easy Pieces, and I know there's more from the 70s and 80s.
Leo was def better as Belfort than in Inception and Shutter Island.
Agreed on SHUTTER ISLAND!
Shutter Island 🥰🥰🥰
There is not more challenging job in a film than what "The Revenant" meant. For actors, crew and authors... Di Caprio graduated in it
I cannot believe you missed Bette Davis for Dangerous in 1935. It was the very very first consolation Oscar for not giving it to her the previous year for Of Human Bondage (she wasn't even initially nominated, they had to put a write-in vote because the whole country was up in arms)
Denzel probably deserved an oscar for Malcom X, Training day is one of if not his most iconic role
What about the hurricane instead?
Yeah, those two roles are the quintessential Denzel performances.
He was wonderful in Malcolm X
Training Day is overrated nobody beats Malcolm or the Hurricane.
I agree and if they’d have given Pacino 1 just 1 for playing Micheal Corleone that’s what would’ve happened. Because Pacino won that year when Denzel should’ve. Look up who beat Pacino those two years, talk about a travesty
I couldn't possibly disagree more about James Cagney! His Oscar win for Yankee Doodle Dandee was well deserved and many fans of Cagney consider this to be his best performance, a true testament to his acting range.
Renee Zellweger- Cold Mountain
Julianne Moore- Still Alice
Shirley MacClaine- Terms of endearment
Penelope Cruz- Vicky Christina Barcelona
Viola Davis- Fences
Gary Oldman- Darkest Hour
Eddie Redmayne really deserved an oscar for The Danish Girl ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ......His acting was equisite ❤️
Heath Ledger.
Yeah he was amazing as the Joker in Dark Knight but his acting was perfection in Brokeback Mountain. He doesn't even have to say much but you still know exactly what is going through his mind.
I mean there were better performances in 2005, I think Philip Seymour Hoffman deserved more
@@Joao-hl5cg also joaquin Phoenix for walk the line. Heath ledger deserved for the dark knight tho.
I agree, he was wonderful and so sad he didn't get to live out his dream. So sad for his little girl.
@@yr77411 Joaquin Phoenix deserved that shit more than most. He learned to sing and play the gutar, his mannerisms and movements were exactly the same as Johnny Cash (if I hadn't seen his face I would have sworn it was the same man), and the overall performance was brilliance. Tough year though, because Brokeback was also an amazing movie with amazing actors.
@@josefinthor9194 agreed, joaquin phoenix should have 4 oscars at least. (Walk the line, gladiator, joker, the master)
Leo’s performance in Wolf of Wall Street was landmark work. He was a wrecking ball throughout. Funny and scary in equal measure. That speech to the firm where he refuses to leave was worthy unto itself. And not because I liked what he said. But because it hews so close to reality it felt like a documentary.
Totally agreed with your picks. Specially, Al Pacino and Leo . My favorite two actors in the whole world
People forget about Leo's role in Gangs of New York another great performance.
People forget about it because he got out-acted by DDL.
DDL was phenomenal in that movie .. not Leo
Daniel Day Lewis overshadowed Leo in that movie
We dont forget.. DDL ruled that movie. He was so good that all other characters are irrelevant.
I've got to say, a lot of these are roles that deserved Oscars, just that they deserved Oscars for the other roles too. For example, DiCaprio was excellent in The Revenant, it gave me a whole new respect for his acting talent. It wasn't quite Daniel Day-Lewis in The Crucible or Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man but it was a pretty powerful performance.
Its a crime that Watchmojo didnt even mention Jack Nicholsons perfect performance in The Shining
Perhaps because the Academy totally ignored that film, including Nicholson's performance 😡
There was no way the Academy would have given an award to THE SHINING, especially not with Stephen King being vocal about NOT being able to voice his opinion and the way Kubrick treated Shelley Duvall.
Jack Nicholson in The Departed was also Oscar worthy in my opinion.
The Shining need more than Oscar it needs a prized medal.
Colour Purple was amazing! Last film i saw on the big screen just before covid hit. A local theatre had it playing as a classic screening. Not many were there and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house but I remember there was an African American guy there with his daughter, and a white guy with his daughter. What a film to see for the first time on the big screen.
My most favorite oscar winner: kathy bates.
Who
@@furkanbozdag8198 Your mama.
You want me to smack your ankle my boy?
What the hell is wrong with you all?
@@MisterUnknown707 thnx
John Goodman he is the hilarious,funniest and iconic actor ever in Hollywood and in theaters and he deserves an Oscar and I like when he became Sully in the universe of Monster Inc
Personally, Barton Fink has the pinnacle performance of John Goodman's career.
That burning hallway scene is still terrifying.
@@isaacgleeth3609 big lebowski too he was really good
Dude seriously “You’re out of your element”. Big Lebowski before monsters inc
It’s always surprised me that Glenn Close has yet to win an Oscar. After seeing her in “Four Good Days,” I’m even more perplexed.
I remember at the time that Henry Fonda’s win in On Golden Pond was a “Lifetime Achievement Award”. It’s sad that he wasn’t even nominated for 12 Angry Men. Looking over his filmography and learning he was only nominated for Best Actor twice is mind boggling!
His performance in The Grapes of Wrath was phenomenal. I am still kind of upset that his friend Jimmy Stewart got it instead of him. Jimmy should’ve won for It’s a Wonderful Life his most iconic role.
12 Angry Men was a brilliant movie.
Jack Nicholson actually won 3 Oscars: ,,One flew over the cuckoo’s nest” leading actor; ,,Terms of Endearment” supporting actor and ,,As good as it gets” leading actor...
Christian Bale has one Academy Award win, for best supporting actor. His performance in The Fighter was amazing. But it's ridiculous that he doesn't have an Oscar for a leading role.
Johnny Depp should've won at least a couple of Oscars over the years.
bad woman destroyed his career
Leo deserve the oscar for revenant but he should've won many times before
Leo should have won Revolutionary Road. Most underrated performance/movie in his filmography.
Art Carney won for Harry and Tonto, denying Al Pacino in Godfather. Al Pacino winning for SOAW denied Denzel Washington for Malcolm X, thus necessitating (in the Academy's mind) the Training Day win. A similar cycle has occurred many times.
Leo acting in Aviator was great.
Walf from the Wall street - also.
Need to rewatch the last one.
I believe DiCaprio should have won for What's Eating Gilbert Grape, as well as Catch me If you Can, The Aviator, The Departed, Gangs of New York, Django Unchained, The Wolf of Wall Street, and, even, probably Titanic. Imo. Especially, when it was believed to be Oscar performed.
Lee Jones was more smooth then Dicaprio
And Stallone in Cop Land
I hate this idea of actors winning for one role instead of another because it suggests that they only deserved one Oscar. Many deserve multiple Oscars for their work.
I don't think it's that they should only have one Oscar, but that the particular role they got it for wasn't their best work and they should have gotten it for a better performance. That's not to say that if they got it for one performance, they couldn't deserve another one if the acting warranted it. Just that the one they got it for wasn't one of those performances.
Quite a few win multiple Oscars
Politics issue
One of the biggest upsets at the 2021 Oscars this year in my opinion, has to include the late and talented Chadwick Boseman, and him not winning the Oscar for Best Actor. Instead it went to Anthony Hopkins, who didn't even attend.. but was actually home, fast asleep the moment it was announced that he was the winner😴 it's true! He had to rewatch it on TiVo when he woke up the next day lol
Totally agree with this list!!! You completely nail it!!! In my opinion, all of these actors deserve an award long before they got it, but the Academy gave awards to them as a way of compesating not giving them the ones they truly deserve. And I also agree with some of the comments, they deserve more than one award.
My list:
- Glen Close: Very talented and no win yet
- Annette Bening: Again extremely talented and still no win
- Amy Adams: Was not lucky enough to win
- Michelle Williams: She still has not won the Academy award but I feel she will. Very talented.
- Kathy Bates: Why she was not even nominated for Dolores Claiborne?
- Morgan Freeman: Definitely should've won for The Shawshank Redemption
- Kate Winslet: Her first Oscar should have been for Titanic. She was the best that year. She deserved it very much for The Reader.
- Ellen Burstyn: The Academy jury must have been too high not to award her for Requiem for a Dream.
- Bette Davis: Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. Again she was robbed! She truly deserved it.
I agree
Yes! The Public Enemy. That film is so classic for its time, and is still respectable today. White Heat, Scarface (1932), and Little Caesar are necessities if you like B/W gangster films.
Speaking of actors in B/W gangster films, I need to bring up Paul Muni. Never won an Oscar, and wasn't nominated for "I'm a Fugitive From a Chain Gang".
And white heat. Cagney blew me away in that film!
Agreed. Excellent film that would be hard to redo and make it better, without making huge changes like they did with Scarface (1983)
Can I just say that Marlon Brando was robbed of the best actor Oscar when Humphrey Bogart won for the African Queen instead of Brando winning for A Streetcar Named Desire.
Had Brando won the best actor Oscar then that film would have been the first film to win all four acting oscars.
No film has done that to this day
I've been saying this since 2004: Leo should have won for The Aviator.
I 100% agree with the Leo one. I think he only got it for Revenant because of the outcry of him not getting it the previous year I believe it was. Don’t get me wrong, he was great in Revenant
Leo defiantly deserved an Oscar for The Reverent. Since that was such a tough movie to shoot. And he truly gave it his all. But, he also deserved an Oscar for his role in Man In The Iron Mask & as Arnie from What's Eating Gilbert Grape. Both those movies were amazing!! And his performances were outstanding in both films!!
Russel Crowe deserves the Oscar for “A beautiful mind” & “The insider”, more than Gladiator.
Here for Al Pacino !! Master piece!!
Imgine begging for likes
The Wolf of Wall Street is one of the best movies of this century
Jim Carrey he deserves to win an Oscar because he is the funniest,hilarious and coolest comedian actor ever in Hollywood and this actor given us our childhood
Jim Carey was robbed first degree for several oscars like eternal sunshine of the spotlight mind
He should have won for "The Truman Show", and wasn't even nominated!

You can also add Frederic March for winning Best Actor in a Leading Role The Best Year's of Our Lives. While his performance was good the Oscar really should have gone to Jimmy Stewart for It's a Wonderful Life. Plus no offense but I found March's performance was more supporting than leading. To me the leading actor for Best Year's of Our Lives was Dana Andrews.
This Boy's Life
What's Eating Gilbert Grape?
The Basketball Diaries
Romeo + Juliet
Titanic
The Beach
Gangs of New York
Catch Me If You Can
The Aviator
The Departed
Blood Diamond
Revolutionary Road
Shutter Island
Inception
Django Unchained
The Great Gatsby
The Wolf of Wall Street
The Revenant
Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
LDC is truly one of the greatest actors of all time, how he only has one Oscar is beyond me.
Left out one of his best:
"This Boy's Life".
Denzel Washington
Why do people disregard Leo's role in the Revenant? He was brilliant in the role. Did he have better roles? Yes. However, did he deserve an Oscar for The Revenant? Absolutely.
What the heck are you talking about DiCaprio did great for The Revenant he deserved that Oscar
It was an outstanding performance. I have never been so happy for an Oscar win. One of the happiest moments of my life. But he should have won several more prior to that...Gilbert Grape, The Aviator, Blood Diamond, The Wolf ofWall Street...and The Basketball Diaries should have gotten nominated...its insanity that he was not nominated for Revolutionar Road and Shutter Island. And seriously...he should have been nominated AND WON for Django Unchained...better than Christopher Waltz as good as he was.
@@renee6524 And in addition to all those performances, Inception also. He was also really good in that movie too.
I disagree:
Jack nicholson(As good as it gets)
Morgan freeman(Million dollar baby)
Leonardo dicaprio(The revenant)
Alicia vikander(The danish girl)
Others:
Tommy lee jones(The fugitive)
Robin williams(Good will hunting)
Renee zellweger(Cold mountain)
Kate winslet(The reader)
Julianne moore(Still Alice)
Will smith(King Richards)
Jessica chastain(The eyes of Tammy)
The first time I saw "Gilbert Grape" I hadn't heard of Leo DiCaprio and thought he was a real kid with a disability. At the time I was working at a "institution" taking care of people like him and it was just too convincing! The movie finally showed the world that developmental disabilities aren't always easy to deal with. Truly amazing job he did!
Al Pacino in Scarface deserved an Oscar!!!
In 1983 was very odd competition and Jeff Daniels could have nominated and won.
Peter Ustinov won best supporting actor for "Spartacus", but should've won for "Quo Vadis". He made Nero such an insane tyrant. Oh well, at least that role got him a Golden Globe.
I watched 'Angels with Dirty faces' when I was only about 8 or 9....it affected me profoundly, and was my favorite film for many years. It's so good. I highly recommend it
I always felt Leonardo should have gotten an Oscar for blood Diamond. I have always felt it was one of his greatest films
Pacino and De Niro should have AT LEAST one more oscar under their belt.
A.P. for any of the godfathers, serpico or glengarry´s as a supporting role. And R.D. for Awakening and Goodfellas running in the same year 1990. And Taxi Driver, 1900, Last Tycoon also simultaneously in 1976.
Denzel Washington, 2-time Oscar winner indeed. 🙂
He should had gotten more where's Fences he got robbed for that movie which pissed me off.
Leo deserves his Oscar for the Revenant, and I won't change my mind.
Totally
I would give him another one for Revolutionsry Road
Fantastic performance
The day that he won the Oscar for The Revenant, my sister and I were jumping with joy. I believe that he should have won for The Aviator and Blood Diamond. I have not seen The Wolf of Wall Street yet.
@@kiaraeijo almost no one mentions Blood Diamond. That is my favourite performance from Leo. And the Oscar definitely should have been his for that one. Captivating performance.
Liz definitely should have had a couple more Oscars (Suddenly Last Summer & Giant), but after a recent reviewing of Butterfield 8 I have to say it was a really solid performance in an OK movie.
The fact that Al Pacino has just one Oscar win (which is not for the Godfather) is just insulting.....like the Guy is one of the greatest actors of all time....
Morgan Freeman totally deserved that Oscar for The Shawshank Redemption. Hell! I would've given it to him myself.
Whoopi Goldberg's Oscar winning performance in Ghost is still my favourite among the best supporting actress winners.
The Oscar (though not always) goes the best performance of the year.
Sometimes an actor gives their best performance but it’s not the best of that year. Likewise sometimes an actor’s second or third best performances is the best performance in that particular year. Sometimes the Academy makes a mistake and tries to correct it (Judi Dench in Shakespeare’s making up for Mrs Brown).
Are you anyhow saying Judi Dench in Shakespeare wasn't good?

Russel Crowe, I mean he was amazing in Gladiator, but year after he was even better in Beautiful Mind....Definetely better than Denzel in Training Day
I don’t like Russel Crowe that much but damn, when I saw a Beautiful Mind I knew he deserved that Oscar. I actually hated him in Gladiator 😂
I always thought "The Insider" was what should've win him an Oscar, personally.
I never doubted that Pacino would top this list, but I love "Scent of a Woman" tbh.
I think Jack Nicholson should have won the oscar for best supporting actor in The Departed but he wasn't even nominated
Yes! Mark Wahlberg was and Jack Nicholson wasn't?! How does that even make sense 🤔
@@emilyg224 ikr I mean Mark Wahlberg was good but he wasn't the best part of the movie yet he was the only one nominated

Denzel Washington should have won an Oscar for Man On Fire. That was one of his best performances of all time.
Al Pacino best performance is Scarface. He's phenomenal in that film.
DiCaprio should have gotten an Oscar for Aviator and I agree for What's eating Gilbert Grape
And titanic and basketball diaries
I agree
DiCaprio should have won for What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. That’s his best performance of his entire career.
