This is nice, directbet is taking bets for Oscars I hope thus not going to be just a one time offering but everytime there is Oscars.

It looks like Leonardo is the heavy favorite this year.

I was thinking and both Best Director and Visual Effects would be great and safe options to bet on in my opinion. Visual effects is a almost a given but George Miller winning best director would not be a long shot with good odds, think of it as both consolation and career achievement prize.

For anyone wondering where you could find the related bets ,they're here : https://bitbet.us/browse/ Right now they're only taking bets on Mad Max Fury for Oscars but eventually they'll add up other stuff.

Yes I forgot, a very safe bet would be Best supporting Actor for Stallone, haven't seen Creed but if he is as good as they say, then it should be very sad for them to not give him the Oscar, even as a way of recognizing his long career.

For me The Martian is a very average movie and not very Oscar worthy so I wouldn't bet on it in any category.

For best actor Leo has a good chance this time, but for movie it would go to the Martian I think. Tom Hardy and Stallone, both have good chance at winning supporting actors.

I've never bet on them but maybe I should try this year. The Oscars are always predictable in a sense but there are also a lot of surprises so it's not as easy as you may think. I didn't see the Revenant but considering the other nominees I would bet my money on Leo really. In past nominations he had too much competition, but this time I think he's open and ready to score.

For best movie, again, I've only seen Mad Max and loved it, but I don't think the academy is really to start giving Oscars left and right to action movies (because that's what it is, an awesome and unique one though). Sadly they already gave so many to shitty movies like Titanic, Avatar, Dance with Wolves, etc. At least this time I can see two potentially great films (haven't seen them but I know they won't be too bad). Spotlight and The Revenant. From what I understand Spotlight it's a little too complex and touchy subject, and the Academy doesn't like that, best pictures are always feel good in a sense or enjoyable/pretty to look at, so I think The Revenant is the favorite here.

DiCaprio has good chance of finally winning an Oscar, already won the Golden Globe, the Oscar is next.

When Leonardo Di Caprio fails to win an Oscar so he goes off the rails, joins the Russian military & becomes an alcoholic, cocaine addict.

I haven't seen The Revenant yet, but if you consider his past body of work, DiCaprio definitely deserves an Oscar.

People say like that so many years and every year there is someone better.  Cheesy  This time, however, I do not see an actor who could pick up his Oscar. He had a very difficult role and played it really well.


 Grin Grin Grin

That's good one!

Does anyone know the current odds and who else is in the running for Best Actor/Actress/Movie?

Yep sometimes it happens like that. I did not really enjoy the movie, but I would agree that he has good chances of winning.
I have no idea how the odds are though. They should be probably low

I have seen already The Revenant, The Martian, The Big Short, Bridge of Spies and Spotlight.

Matt Damon was very good in The Martian, but for me Oscar should to get DiCaprio, he was really brilliant! Glob for sure will help him to do that finally Wink

The Revenant is very interesting but probably Oscar for best movie will get The Martian.

I must see Mad Max to get a look on bigger picture, but i dont like movies like this so probably my opinion will not change.

We will see.. Wink

I have seen Bridge of Spies but I don't think it is worthy for an Oscar.

Spotlight and The Revenant seems to be everyone's favorite, I am watching The Revenant tonight or tomorrow and will try to watch the others before betting on anything.

Oh nice. I will make a small bet on The Revenant winning Best Picture and Stallone winning Best Supporting Actor later today.

I'm making small best as well. I'm hoping for DiCaprio to win one, he deserves it but I don't think it would make much of a difference for him.
He has a good income and spends out a lot to charity as well. I don't think an oscar would make a difference.

I would bet on DiCaprio winning the oscar, I find it absurd that has not won any statuette so far

maybe he is way over qualified for the oscar Tongue

He i agree, he has been a good actor for yrs but still he didn't get it.. it makes me wonder why..

He has a secret I think he own the Oscar world Tongue That is why he don't get it.
Yes he is really a good actor, but I think is just unlucky like gambling is.

Still he is rich and have a good home some. If I am Oscar doesn't matter to me if I have a good life.
