 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
This is a majorly tough call for me. A part of me says DiCaprio, a part of me says Ejiofor, a part of me says McConaughey.
I'd probably give the edge to Leo, who goes places he's never gone before in Wolf, to understate it.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
This is really a two man race between Ejiofor and McConaughey, if 12 years has a really good night could favor Ejiofor.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
I actually prefer Bale to win but he has little chance. I do think Leo definitely deserves to win. I think he has a great shot since he's so over due.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
Leo or McConaughey should win but yeah, this is a very strong category. I think Joaquin should've got in instead of Bale though.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
Dicaprio. He holds that movie together, although going back and re-watching it, I can see why Hill was nominated as well.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
I'm still torn between DiCaprio and McConaughey. Either one would be an excellent and highly deserving winner on Oscar night.

 Re: Academy Awards - Best Actor: who SHOULD win?
Dicaprio, he gave his best performance in what i thought was a weak movie, but he was really great in it.
