"The Revenant" marks the fifth time DiCaprio has been nominated for a best actor Oscar since his acclaimed role in 1993's "What's Eating Gilbert Grape."
While DiCaprio may not have any Oscar gold, he has a rabid fanbase online that has been waiting to see him in all his Academy Award-winning glory.
As the years have stretched on, DiCaprio has appeared to constantly one-up his previous performances to gain Oscar status (the man ate raw bison for his last role and bled on the set of "Django Unchained" in character). Fans took notice and made DiCaprio's quest into a series of hilariously heartbreaking memes.
