Nicely done. You tied with me at 22/24. Missed animated & live-action short.
(I even watched Helium yesterday. Wasn't that impressed by it.)

Didn't see a single second of a short, just locked in Helium at random. Documentary seemed pretty obvious.

Act of Killing was the worst snub of the night

Watch Hunger, stunning movie and still his best in my opinion ......... would put 12 years over Shame though.

jett doesn't like it either. apparently boredom is what he finds when a movie decides to move methodically and/or take its time with the material. Or languishes on certain shots or something.

Doesn't sound as bad as it did on my TV first time aside from the last note was blown but that's has to be a bitch to belt out. She was clearly nervous as fuck probably while trying to figure out WTF Travolta said.

I think her in-ear monitor was messed up. Her timing was off, too. I'd wager production is at fault.

That wasn't even a butchering of Menzel's name, that was an entirely different name. But now you can watch it on a loop.

Lol @ Travolta. Her name isn't even that complicated

Well, now I know how Gravity ends. -_-

This is one of the few years I can remember where I really don't have a problem with any of the awards.

15/24. Pretty decent I guess. Didn't think Gravity would snatch best director as well.

12 Years only won because of #white_guilt. Dallas or Gravity would have been the better fit imo.

I actually think Matthew McCoughany's performance was really amazing, but what was better than his performance? His acceptance speech. That was the best acceptance speech I ever saw on the Oscars.

I thought Ellen was a great host

Also, everyone I expected to win won, but I was still surprised by the Picture/Director split.

So that Gravity spoiler.

Guess it takes away some of the tension when I see it. I'm terrified of seeing it haha, it's pretty much my nightmares projected onto the big screen.

Too little too late. *Sigh*...whatever.

You should still watch it. The ending is really done well.

I watched the film a couple of times. Granted, it was on the big screen, but it was still great the second time.
 
If Richard Linklater had won, they would have nailed everything I wanted. Would have preferred McQueen for director, but can't hate Alfonso, he's definitely a contemporary master. Also American Hustle with 0 wins!!!!!
