The biopic almost ALWAYS produces the Best Actor. It's like whoever is essentially doing an impression of somebody from real life, that's your winner.

Playing disabled/diminished will always get you the Oscar.

Jesus, Matt McConaughey must be shooting a movie right now if he had to grow that nasty beard.

If Selma wins, it's last year's 12 Years a Slave all over. Members didn't watch 12YAS, but still voted for it, because they were afraid everyone would accuse them of being racist.

Eddie Redmayne, who was very good, was favored to win over Michael Keaton?

I thought Keaton was the front runner for a long time.
