    To me, he has won every single Oscar he's been nominated for. He is so smart, so intellectual when he talks. His acting is one of my favorites, hugely admirable. I know an Academy Award isn't the only thing you judge an actor by, but his work so far has earned him more than one oscars to me, even if he hasn't been given them.

      I honestly think Leo is such a great man, not only as an actor, but as a person. He did an exceptional job playing Jay Gatsby. He deserves an Oscar more than most Oscar winners.

    His acting was superb. He captured Jay Gatsby's whole essence. The teary eyed, hopeful yet doubtful Jay Gatsby in that clip was just genius. He really rocked that scene. My favorite scene is the scene in the plaza hotel, which would be Chapter 7. It was brilliant. When Leo/Jay blew up on Joel/Tom it was one fo the most natural and honest moments i've ever scene in a movie. It was as if Leonardo Dicaprio was angry not the character he was playing. He's one of the greatest actors of our time.

    My parents took me with them to see Titanic when I was 3 weeks old. When I was 5 I saw it again and it was my favorite movie. After that he was my favorite actor, and being a kindergartner I had no way of differentiating good actors from bad actors. It's a huge coincidence that he was technically the first actor I ever saw (even though I have no memory of it) and he became my favorite actor. His roles are iconic, and even if the film is bad, he has a way of brightening it. He's absolutely astounding.

      He probably was required to mention the 3D element from the film so he used Leo's comment about the novel making you feel like you're in the room with the characters as a segway into it. He did it rather awkwardly tho like he forgot to be conversational as well as actually listen to what he's saying. He should've done something like "and people get to feel like they're in the room with the characters with the 3D in the film too. Do you adjust your acting knowing it's going to be in 3D?" Just saying "Especially in 3D!!!!!" while Leo's talking about the *novel* is awkward and shows he wasn't really paying attention and just wanted to get the points he was told to get through done and the interview over with.

    One of the things about this author is that he can transport into a world to where you not only whisked into it, but you feel, move, taste, smell the elements around you in that environment. Very few authors have that ability and that's what makes him a genius for literary works..

    Leo is one of the best actors ever!!! Especially in this movie, his performance was absolutely flawless and spot-on. Simply amazing. Leo is also the best period-actor alive. He definitely deserves an Oscar for his performance in "The Great Gatsby". But in my opinion, he should have also received one for his equally astonishing performances in "What's eating Gilbert Grape?", "The Beach", "The Departed", "Blood Diamond" "Revolutionary Road" and "J. Edgar". He's very intelligent and philantropic.

    which is why i prefer this Gatsby movie over the original. Baz did a fantastic job with directing this film. The film really came to life with such beautiful boisterous visionary and images. Everybody that was involved with this film did such a good job. Excited for when the movie comes out on Blu-ray and DVD.
