^Anyone noticed Baz Luhrman in those pics? The white haired dude who's hugging Leo wildly. How about a 3rd movie gentlemen?

That's probably why Austin Butler was there too (he and Baz just made a movie about Elvis Presley).

 

 

Lovely words from Meryl about Leo🙂

I read Baz offered Leo the Tom Hanks role in the Elvis movie but Leo passed on it. I wouldn’t mind another collaboration between them. I know it’s divisive but I really liked The Great Gatsby.

 Not Leo but Jordan Belfort's story doesn't deserve an Oscar! Lol

Fair enough, but Leo’s performance most certainly did!

@SexyLeo91 yeah, the Scorpio struggle is real. I'm currently on my official number three, and we are in fight or passionately opposite mode 😑. The lengths they go through to remain in control 😳

 

Good luck with your Scorpio 😁 and yes they are something else! Thanks everyone for the posts!

Watching this I started to wonder how the Oscars will be this year. After all that has happened with changes as a result. 

 

Will it be smaller, bigger, more intimate, or just the same as usual? I don't know if anyone wants changes but I couldn't help but wonder. 

 

I don't think about the sex scenes but the scene he looks out the window at the helicopter that was there to rescue him blowing up outside. "It wasn't until then I finally got it". 

 

When something needs to blow up for people to get it. 🙃

Speaking of dull again: As long the show isn't that boring how it was the last years (what showed in the viewing numbers too which went lower and lower by year). I think Leo winning the oscar was truly their last big highlight.

 

What a cutie

Adam McKay On ‘Don’t Look Up’s Oscar Noms

After watching his end-of-the-world satire Don’t Look Up notch four Oscar nominations this morning, in the categories of Best Picture, Original Screenplay, Original Score and Editing, writer-director Adam McKay spoke with Deadline about the film’s recognition and real-world impact, as well as upcoming projects ranging from the HBO series Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty, to his HBO Max series The Uninhabitable Earth and his Elizabeth Holmes film Bad Blood for Apple.

 

(...)

 

McKay’s sci-fi comedy Don’t Look Up finds a comet hurtling towards Earth. Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio play Drs. Kate Dibiasky and Randall Mindy, two low-level astronomers who go on a media tour to warn mankind that the end of days might be near. The multi-hyphenate found it heartening to see the Film Academy’s recognition of his latest work, and was wowed by the experience of watching it debut globally on Netflix. “I’ve just never experienced anything like that, where it’s almost like a button is pushed and then it just injects into upwards of 500 million people, and [you’re] seeing responses from countries all around the world,” said McKay. “Seeing these responses of people just saying, ‘Yes, I feel this too. Yes, this is what I’ve been seeing,’ that was really an incredible moment.”

 

McKay says that the film has “surpassed” all of his expectations, not only in terms of the critical acclaim it has garnered, and the size of the audience with which it’s connected, but also in terms of the change it’s inspired in the real world. “Honestly, movies are movies, so they can only do so much, but they can also do a lot…I just heard in France, they’re going to do a Just Look Up Day in March through six, seven major cities. I just heard there’s a bill named the Don’t Look Up Bill in New Mexico. I’m seeing it referenced everywhere. I’m seeing climate groups drawn to it and using it as a reference, so it’s definitely surpassed what we’d hoped for,” he said. “We were just trying to give a little kick in the pants, as far as urgency, and clearly it’s a message that relates to people…beyond even the climate crisis. A lot of people relate to it as far as democracies teetering, income inequality, the pandemic. So, it’s amazing and it just reminds us of what movies can do.”

 

Don’t Look Up will compete for Best Picture at this year’s Oscars with Belfast (Focus Features), CODA (Apple), Drive My Car (Sideshow/Janus Films), Dune and King Richard (Warner Bros.), Licorice Pizza (MGM/United Artists Releasing), Nightmare Alley (Searchlight Pictures), The Power of the Dog (Netflix) and West Side Story (20th Century Studios). The ceremony will take place on March 27.

McKay is receiving his own star on the walk of fame next week. Any chances Leo will show up there?

I couldn't agree more. He truly deserved it for all his hard work and The Oscars needs him to win once in a while. 🙃

And me? I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for. Because it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something. And if you find that moment... It lasts forever.

These years pass by so quickly---- this is one of the many Leo movies I remember watching in a theater.

^Lucky you. I remember how my parents went into cinema, watched the movie and told me the day after "kiddo this isn't some little romantic love story setting on a beach. there's no way in hell you will gonna watch this bloody mess until your old enough not being traumatized. Now go play in your room".

 

Me.

First,  great eye noticing the blonde haired guy was Baz 

 

Next, tks, for all the wonderful  Leo visuals I'm greeted with this morning  

 

Definitely agree in recent years the one time the world as a whole jumped for joy watching the Oscar was when Leo won  

Pix from  last night's DLU cast Zoom Q&A

 

 

 

Yeah The Beach turns 22 years already. I remember how I went to  the cinema with my mother and I wasn't 16 and the guy at the cinema almost didn't let us in. Thanks ro my mom we could watch it😄

Loved the movie. I've watched it soo many times. Leo being shirtless for 90% of the movie is a big plus 🤤

 

I hope we'll get a video of the q&a.
