Oscars 2017

It's a film we'll argue about for the next 30 years if Florida doesn't join Atlantis, and there ain't many recent BP winners about which we can make that claim.

"we" being America or ILX?

I would've been more personally invested in the queer barrier if it had been broken by Fight Club.

ILX is its own sovereign nation

Why does Martha Ruiz have to lose her Oscar gig just because the fucking white dude couldn't be bothered to take care of his shit instead of tweeting a pic of Emma Stone?

btw somebody commented about Beatty and Dunaway's equally appalling face "work," and I must say whaaa? Warren may have had some, but his face is a plausible 79-year-old version of his younger one, whereas I couldn't guess who Faye was without identification.

So what?

so what about any of this motherfucking shit, jed?

just all part of the slog to the grave

well this thread took a turn

I know. It's more difficult for a female star than a male star who's "allowed" to look bad.

WHOOP THERE IT IS

i love fucking misogyny, homophobia and racism! as you all have proven so very many times

Not everyone can look like Isabelle Huppert at 63 years of age.

“I’m sure they’re very lovely people, but they just didn’t have the disposition for this,” Natoli said, “You need somebody who’s going to be confident and unafraid.”

you forgot a couple zeroes

they're not Cuban [redacted]

catching up on movies that didn't get nominated, watched Edge of Seventeen, that was a thrillingly entertaining little film, hailee steinfeld should have been nominated along with annette benning and either of them were more deserving than emma stone

<<this is the first outright queer film to win an Academy Award for Best Picture>>

This isn't outright queer enough for ya?

welcome back, KJB.

Now the traditional Oscar thread transformation into a simulacrum of the gay ones is complete.

Simulacrum was robbed

With a modified card, even if the presenters had gotten the wrong one, none of this would have happened because the presenters would’ve looked at it and one of two things would’ve happened: Their eyes would’ve read “Best Actress” or “Emma Stone.” Reading either of those would indicate that this wasn’t the card for Best Picture, and they would’ve asked Jimmy Kimmel or a producer to the stage to get it corrected.

The card needed to be written and designed in a way that makes it clear to the reader only the essential information.

damn...

icymi the Academy passed a rule so another TV series can never win the doc feature award again; too bad it took OJ to get that done.
