OSCARS - Acadamy Awards !! - do we even care???

[deep]

so Decedents screenplay was adapted from a book, was it a weak suck story too?

congratulations.

 

[LemonMelon]

Bridesmaids.

 

[corianderstem]

I really liked it.

 

[bono_212]

That was one of my favorite scenes in Bridesmaids.

 

[bono_212]

OK, fine, that movie was good too.

 

[bono_212]

Oh, Carrell looked pretty good just now. That's a strange thing to find myself saying.

 

[LemonMelon]

Midnight In Paris. Good film.

 

[deep]

congrats to Allen
especially for not showing up, always turning down membership to the academy
because he has said it is not possible to quantify art
and if there is a way, then film makers will find themselves working towards that goal, instead of creating art.

 

[corianderstem]

Oh wow, do you mean to tell me that movie stars enjoy the movies, too? I'm glad to have this information, at multiple times throughout the show.

 

[trojanchick99]

I adored Midnight inParis, happy to see the screenplay win.

I enjoyed Sandler's bit.

Google's marketing is starting to feel more manipulative.

 

[corianderstem]

I zoned out after the second or third pretty talking head.

 

[ryancoke71]

I can only hope someone dared or bet her to stick her leg out or something.

She looked ridiculious!

 

[deep]

I enjoyed Sandler's bit.

I hope you got that I was kidding you about the docs

(by not respecting them)

 

[deep]

how old is Milla?
she been around for awhile, still looks fresh

 

[corianderstem]

Seriously.

I still have that album she put out in the early 90s.

A) I had no idea Rose Byrne was British.

and

B) They kept showing her on the red carpet, but I always missed them saying who it was. Totally did not recognize her with the haircut.

and

C) The drinking game was funny.

 

[deep]

I saw all the shorts in a theater

The Shore was good, great cast. Also the Tuba one was good.

In the animation, The Flying Books should win.

 

[LemonMelon]

Oh God why did Saving Face have to be a pun fuccckkkkk

 

[mobvok]

assuming there's a bigger in joke for taking Scorsese shots?

 

[deep]

jesus, someone wins an award for a doc about a woman that had her face burned off.

 

[Thora]

HA! Love that they continued the Scorsese drinking game!

 

[corianderstem]

assuming there's a bigger in joke for taking Scorcese shots?

I think that was the whole joke. If so, brilliant! Everyone (hopefully) got it without any further setup.

Edit: Continued? Clearly, I've missed something!

 

[bono_212]

I wish the short before Winnie the Pooh had been nominated. Loved that one.

 

[mobvok]

deep tells me this was a good choice

 

[trojanchick99]

assuming there's a bigger in joke for taking Scorsese shots?

It was referencing a joke from the Golden Globes for a drinking game.

 

[deep]

assuming there's a bigger in joke for taking Scorcese shots?

awhile back on one of the awards show they created a drinking game where they would take a shot every-time someone said Scorsese at an awards show.

 

[corianderstem]

Ah, that's right. Well-played!

 

[deep]

deep tells me this was a good choice

if you are talking about the animation shorts, three of the 5 were terrible, barely watchable, the Flying Books and an Australian one were good.

The 5 live shorts were all decent.

 

[corianderstem]

C'mon, Marty!

I could see Hugo winning for direction and The Artist winning picture.
