Oscars 2019

very strange cutoff, Alfred, as the best performance Damon ever gave was in Gerry (2002). Only his Scott Thorson comes close. (I didn't see any of that Bourne shit.)

I include Gerry, Morbs. There and in the Bourne films he learned to use his blankness for comic or creepy effect.

Time to drop Stanley Donen into the end of that obit reel and piss off all the Burt Reynolds fans.

ah yes, the core audience for stuntman and alligator-wrestling movies from 40 years ago have been clutching their hankies to their faces for six months, waiting breathlessly to see an photo of an old man in a thick salt & pepper wig appear for 0.8 seconds, three hours into a TV show of people they’ve never heard of giving speeches about their children

Damon’s blankness is totally weaponised in The Informant! btw. The entire film is built on his endless layers of affectless cover being peeled away to reveal even greater inscrutability beneath.

i'd really like to snog him.

sic, have u heard Oscar fallout before, cuz that's all true

I guess I'm comfortable with these predictions, and god have mercy on our souls.

all to be blessedly forgotten by Thursday

Just when will it be Amy Adams's year?!

She's pretty good. Why is she entitled to win when Garbo never did?

she should've won in 2005 and that's that

it’s true, 2005 was garbo’s year and everyone knew it

really need to see Minding the Gap. the trailer tripped me out, seeing Rockford and all these places and parks I know. Rooting for it.

Interesting that this will (likely) be the first decade since the '50s with multiple b&w Best Picture winners. Not that it means much.

and intended for a white & white audience

I'm still betting Roma is going to take BP

Why is Black Panther not nominated for visual effects?

The only things I’m sure of about tonight is that Cuaron will get Director, Glenn Close will get her Lifetime Achievment Best Actress, and that Dick Cheney horror show will get Makeup. Everything else is up for grabs.

Oh, and “Shallow” is a lock, too.

a phenomenon that will change how comic books get conceived and written

ha ha what

adaptations, I should've written

last year my friends @MatthewKBegbie @MorganPaigeLove & I made muppet versions of Oscar nominees and i hung them up around my house, and this year the tradition continues pic.twitter.com/vgTVk8vE7c

ah, that makes more sense

we've already seen how willing Disney is to adopt Phil Lord's methods though

I'd be 1000% more likely to watch My Friend Dahmer: Into The Dahmer-Verse though

"Roma's on Netflix? What's next, my microwave makes a movie?"

Well, the makeup winners did all they could to justify the decision not to air their category

Has anyone won Best Cinematography for shooting a film they directed before?

Alfonso Cuarón won best cinematography for “Roma,” making him the first director to win for shooting his own film.
