Leo, you magnificent bastard!

The Departed? WOW. was Leo seriously not nominated for Best Actor for an Oscar? damn. i do believe this is now my favorite Leo movie. did anybody else feel like Matt Damon was just playing Matt Damon? could be my severe dislike of him, but he does cocky asshole very, very well. obviously this means 100 Movies has been updated. 17 movies in 5 weeks? not a bad start.

He was somehow nominated for Blood Diamond instead! He was pretty great in The Departed, given that he anchors the damn movie.

I thought all the performances were pretty amazing. I mean, Jack Nicholson always plays Jack Nicholson at this point, but there was some extra stuff there.

Is Matt Damon really a cocky asshole? Aw.

I'm in total agreement with you on both Matt and Leo in this. Leo was simply fantastic. I am glad, though, that Marky Mark got a nod for his part.

I thought everyone was terrific in the Departed, and I LOVE Matt Damon, have ever since the first NPR/Fresh Air with Teri Gross interview she did with him. The dude's a charmer, very personable and affable without being an egotist asshole. Your movie star may vary.

I loved that movie and all the performances. Any movie that goes against the formula (can't say more without spoiling people) is definatly high up in my book. A client got all the oscar movies so I'm working my way though. So far I'm enjoying them all, although a bit dissapointed in Babel. Next up on the agenda are Little Children and Notes on a Scandal.
