Matthew McConaughey - Dallas Buyers Club |
|
The fact that voters are seeing him deliver another outstanding performance every week on HBO's "True Detective" is surely helping his momentum. |

Chiwetel Ejiofor - 12 Years a Slave |
|
As McConaughey was not nominated for the BAFTA, Ejiofor is gaining some pre-BAFTA momentum as the expected winner in that race. |

Leonardo DiCaprio - The Wolf of Wall Street |
|
The Academy likely envies Leo and his hot girlfriends, and will not award him any time soon. Still, he got to make out with Margot Robbie. That's a prize in and of itself. |

Bruce Dern - Nebraska |
|
Dern will likely get a lot of "career" votes, but I doubt he will actually collect the $1 million prize he received in the mail on Oscar night. |

Christian Bale - American Hustle |
|
"I thought disfiguring my body and pretty face was what I needed to do to win an Oscar," would be a fair statement by Bale post-Oscar loss on March 2nd. |
