He sure did come a long way from having a fanbase that consisted only of teenage girls (Growing Pains, Titanic, and Man in the Iron Mask).

^^Don't forget Romeo & Juliet, girls love that film. However, even back then he showed he had the talent to be a great actor with Basketball Diaries and What's Eating Gilbert Grape.

Y'all need to check out the place beyond the pines. Superb performances and one of the best films I've seen in years

You've got to be borderline crazy to be an amazing actor, I feel, it's like controlled schizophrenia.
As mentioned earlier, I can spot bad acting immediately, it's painful.
Never really heard of ddl, but I did watch part of Lincoln. It was just too boring in, but I was impressed with his performance.
It's crazy how much clout movie stars receive. They are the biggest stars in this country, imo, ranking over musicians and athletes.
I'd love to try my hand at acting.

oh yeah, can't forget about that especially with Claire Danes. Damn, I used to like Claire Danes a lot, not so much anymore. Likewise with Alicia Silverstone... but I digress.

What about Gangs of NY ?!?!
But Leo's been my favorite actor since around the Departed.

Leo is not more talented than Depp. Depp can do everything Leo can, Leo can't do everything Depp can.
Now what I will give is you is that Leo has been choosing better films. But that isn't hard when you get offered the BEST scripts and work with the BEST directors.
Depp's loyal to Burton and Verbinski to a fault.
Still, neither one of them is better than DDL or Penn imo.
The 5 best actors working are : DDL, Penn, Depp, Denzel, Lucky Leo

my cousins and I were just talking about this. What are YOUR top 3 Leonardo DiCaprio movies?
1. This Boy's Life
2. Django Unchained
3. The Departed / Catch Me if You Can
my number 3 spot was heavily debated because it went into "Did you like the movie or his performance"

They're definitely my top two favorite actors.
Leo easily has the better catalogue.
But quit sleepin on my boy Depp in Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas..
You might have to be a Hunter S. Thompson fan to appreciate how epic that role/movie is.

Huh?
accent was weak.
One of his weaker roles imo, look at Shutter Island again. On point like he was really disturbed, said it took him to the lowest depths of his movie career.
His role in Catch Me If You Can is better than his role in Blood Diamond imo. That's one of my favorite characters ever, Frank Abagnale.

lol @ lesser known guys.. Hoffman has an Oscar for Best Actor and Giamatti has won the Golden Globes for best actor but has been snubbed twice for an Oscar nod.

Hoffman still can't carry a film by himself though.
Never will.
Never will.

Deep's Boston accent Leo's I know for sure.
Boston George is more convincing than the dude in The Departed.
Deep's NY accent >>>>>> Leo's.

Depp's accent in Donnie Brasco should be taken with a grain of salt because he was ACTING within the movie. And it was extremely inauthentic at that.

I don't know man. South African accent might not be that distinct but it sure sounds hard to imitate. Aside from the acting, I gave a lot of credit for Leo in pulling that off.
