It took Boyhood 12 years to lose an Oscar

 

[Floridian]

12 years for a supporting actress oscar.

 

[RumblingRosco]

Is this the last award?

 

[A Human Becoming]

Birdman best picture? I'm okay with this.

I think it's true that Hollywood loves itself.

 

[RJT]

So glad that Boyhood didn't win! Would have been happy with Whiplash, Birdman, Imitation Game and Grand Budapest. Hell, even American Sniper was better than Boyhood.

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

these guys are the most boring drunks to ever make a speech

good lord

 

[SolidChamp]

I want to see the RedLetterMedia victory party.

 

[LuuKyK]

Deserved. It was a great movie, not my favorite though.

Having Budapest and Birdman tie on 4 oscars is a good sign still.

lol at Boyhood getting the shaft though.

 

[RusselUp]

My man. Whiplash was the best movie of 2014 hands down.

Here here! Totally agreed.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Well it sure wasn't for money. How many theaters did it show in?

It cost 4 mil, and made 25. Not bad.

[Fireblend]

Well deserved win for Birdman. I would have preferred to see GBH or Whiplash win, but it was my third choice and hey, it's not Boyhood.

 

[shadowkat]

Lol Michael Keaton.

[Violet_0]

the first superhero movie ever to win Best Picture
;p
;p

 

[HK-47]

Never forget. The Academy loves navel gazing.

The Academy loves movies about movies. Its like crack to them.

 

[Sirpopopop]

Spent 12 years for nothing

Made a great movie. It's not as if Linklater is a director that courts these awards. He's an indie guy, and when Boyhood first came out, no one expected it to get this far.

Birdman was the overwhelming favorite coming into the night winning all the guild awards, and it did what it set out to do.

 

[Choomp]

Shaq gifs!

Thanks GAF for helping me through this. The Oscars are usually my favorite but tonight wasn't very good.

 

[wedward]

Eat shit, Boyhood

Speaking of pseudo-intellectual.

 

[nin1000]

Nice speech!

 

[SargerusBR]

It took Boyhood 12 years to lose an Oscar

 

[Ampersands]

Wow, did not see that coming.

I thought Boyhood would win for both directing and picture. Birdman's win is well-deserved though.

Edit: smh at all the Boyhood hate here

 

[An-Det]

Definitely the right film, Birdman deserves it.

 

[hydruxo]

Inarritu is the man

 

[Omega Ultimus]

Does this mean I win an Oscar, too?!

 

[Barbacoatl]

F yeah Negro

 

[Toxi]

 

[Hamlet]

It took Boyhood 12 years to lose an Oscar

heh

 

[Hours Left]

It's over!

 

[Linkyn]

I'm just happy American Sniper didn't win.

Edit: Also, Boyhood isn't nearly as bad as some of you make it out to be.

 

[Devilgunman]

Sad Grand Budapest didn't win

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Oscars like their history of bad choices

 

[tcrunch]

"Who gave this son of a bitch his green card?"

Seriously?

 

[Montresor]

That's right xenophobes! USA is an immigrant nation!

Birdman was really good.

 

[amnesiac]

what's up with the boyhood hate

 

[Serpentine]

It was pretty good, but it was still my 4th fav out of the noms

 

[rude]

Boyhood really did suck ass though.

 

[Atraveller]

The Academy loves movies about movies. Its like crack to them.

Fuck Hugo.

[A_Gorilla]

It took Boyhood 12 years to lose an Oscar

Well done, sir, well done!

 

[Zodzilla]

Jesus, the need for people to try and knock down Boyhood just because they don't like it toxic and childish.

 

[CountAntonius]

I enjoyed Boyhood way more than than Birdman but I'm ok with Birdman winning. Where the hell did all the boyhood hate come from?

 

[A Human Becoming]

Eat shit, Boyhood

Did Linklater kill your dog?

Fuck Hugo.

Ugh, thanks for reminding me. Hugo was so blah.

 

[HOMEBOY OVER HERE]

who is gonna hook up with scarlett johansson tonight

 

[JABEE]

Birdman deserved to win it

 

[Sanjuro]

Time to put 12 Years a Mason back in his cell.

 

[metalslimer]

[vinnygambini]

It's over!

Oprah be glad. She gun kill NPH

 

[Admiral Woofington]
