re: Will JGL be the first actor to get Oscars for both best Actor/Supporting Actor?

Who do you think should win it then? JGL in Looper was amazing and deserves a shot at the Oscar. Dude has PAID his dues and finally deserves recognition.

Watch more movies. Highly, highly doubt he gets a nod this year, and if he does, it will likely be from his performance in Lincoln, even though I'm not aware how he performed currently.

For starters Daniel Day Lewis, Anthony Hopkins, Joaquinn Phoenix, and Martin Freeman will highly likely get the Best Actor nomination, and with Best Supporting the competition gets even more fierc ewith Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Alan Arkin, Robert DeNiro, and Javier Bardem.

I'd take the chances of him getting either nomination close to 1%, and even less than that for him to get both nominations, not to mention actually winning both awards. A basic impossibility.
