And let me tell you why, thirteen-year-old on my dash.

Leonardo DiCaprio consistently chooses (and has consistently chosen) high caliber projects and does his job as an actor pretty astoundingly well every damn time. He appears “desperate” to you because you now associate his otherwise incredible performances with Oscar clips because that is typically the quality of his output, and you’re now judging that output through a lens which has been decided for you by the Academy, which is to say, one that tells you He Historically Will Not Get The Thing, to which you wrongfully assume his attempts are then rendered Pathetic. You see here wherein lies the problem (hint: it’s mostly you.)

So yes, it’s going to seem like he is desperate for an Oscar when really, he’s just being Miley and doing the same damn thing he always does: Crushing It. Leonardo DiCaprio does his own thing. He set the bar that high at a very young age and he aims for it every time. So if you’re looking for some variety, no, you won’t be seeing him cameo in a horror spoof, or captaining a rom-com. That’s not his game. Leo’s game is quality and respect for the craft. To be honest, I hope he never gets that Oscar. At this point, it doesn’t deserve him. (via snowmanoclock)

INHERENT VICE UPDATE: Paul Thomas Anderson plans to shoot in 2013

Paul Thomas Anderson recently spoke with the New York Times in which he confirms that his next project will be the adaptation of Thomas Pynchon’s novel, Inherent Vice.  He also said that he hopes to shoot the film in 2013.

At the Cinefamily telethon last week, Robert Downey Jr. was asked about his involvement with the film:

Q: You’ve been rumored to be attached to Paul Thomas Anderson’s adaptation of Inherent Vice. What can you divulge about that?

RDJ:  First of all, Thomas Pynchon wrote this— he called it a “beach read” novel — called Inherent Vice, about a private detective in Manhattan Beach in 1969 who is trying uncover this conspiracy with the “Golden Fang”. It’s remarkable. We’ve been talking about it for a while … We’re gonna get together.

Obviously I think PTA is the singular voice in American cinema in a certain way right now. The great thing about him is he refuses to be bound by the idea of a sailable narrative …

To answer the question, it is not a rumor. We are considering it, but we’re considering a bunch of other stuff.
