Oscars 2019

please god there's no Wayne's World 3.

I thought they were introducing Best Picture in four hours, which would've chilled me.

when is In Memoriam and does anyone want to put money down on them excluding Jonas Mekas

Is this the first genuine backstage footage there's ever been?

should have kept editing off the show if they were going to give it to BoRhap

I think they will include Jonas. George Kuchar and other a/g people have made it in recent years.

This terrible mid-song screaming wtf it's only Gaga.

yeah that duet was hideous

Twitter is so bad tonight

is Green Book doing a bit of a sweep here? who's keeping score?

well, i guess green book is winning BP.

This terrible mid-song screaming wtf it's only Gaga.

I liked the duet

no way Viggo wins though, it's gonna be Malek

Pleasantly surprised by BlacKkKlansman win, disappointed but not surprised Paul Schrader was snubbed

finally sold that terrible blowzy ballad

the duet was great, you could-hearted bastards

Why no Black Panther song performance?

The men's outfits have really come on these last few years; it used to be everyone was identical.

Mark Ronson!

why does Gaga make such terrible speeches, I think she's trolling

shallow isn’t even a song. it only works in 20-second snippets.

Gaga owes Kendrick a Macklemore txt.

No donen on the death reel

turning this bullshit off and finishing True Detective

I love Bradley Cooper's hair and beard. He looks like he smells of lavender unicorn.

Sudden lump in my throat at that shot from 'Butch..'

oh in memoriam is on now? will Nicolas Roeg get a clip or just a pic

ALL RISE

Barbra Streisand has entered the building.

Can't watch this live, but the surprises are Black Panther for costumes and production design, First Man over Infinity War for visual FX, and anything (Green Book) over The Favourite for original screenplay. Doesn't bode well for Olivia Coleman.

Babs!

I can believe Streisand buys books for the color scheme of their spines.

i know right?

6 of the last 7 Best Actor wins have been for biographical roles. Something broken.

I can also believe Streisand collects self-portraits.

xpost

Must be why I've only seen one of the last 7 best actor wins!

All is forgiven if its Olivia Coleman or Melissa McCarthy. If its Gaga, you're dead to me, Academy.

Olivia coleman for actress is the first pleasant surprise of the night.

Now We Know!

Just when will it be Glenn Close's year?

OK, she's delightful.

Best speech of the night.

HOLY SHIT

Glenn Close proves what a good actress she is by smiling and clapping.

And one of the two shit nominees wins BP.

Re:Donen & The Death Montage: I saw somewhere once that they have to have it prepared a couple weeks in advance (due to timing and clearing the clips), so anyone who dies prior to the ceremony has to wait until next year.

That said, wasn't a big exception made for Whitney Houston or somebody else this decade?

You were saying, about Slant’s predictions, Morbs? Not sure many others got 7 of the top 8.

I walk into the living room, where my wife out of sheer desperation has the Awards turned on. I hear the producer of Green Book sating "This was a movie about love." My reaction: well, it's about time!

lol Peter Farrelly

Farrelly winning for a segratation film in front of Coogler and Lee's face is just straight evil mise en scène and why would one continue watching this dumb ceremony after that.

I assume he was listing names so the son couldn't have time to say something stupid (see his Globes speech), or at least that was the intended joke.
