100% agreed. I know Miyazaki usually does get ignored by the Academy, but I really thought they might acknowledge him for what really does look to be his final film. Absolutely shameful.

Didn't Spirited Away won the very first Best Animated Film Oscar?

 

[overcast]

JLaw fell again? seriously? what's wrong with her.

She wanted desperately to be a "moment" again. Seriously believe the show had that put in just for jokes and coverage.

 

[ЯAW]

Did Nebraska get any oscars? I finally saw it and I really liked it, great movie, probably my favorite of the year. I would have given it oscar for best actor and best picture

 

[Cypher]

JLaw fell because she tripped over a cone.

 

[lazybones18]

JLaw fell becomes she tripped over a cone.

the cone was real? lol, I thought Ellen made the cone up in the monologue

 

[CassSept]

(I mean, Spirited Away did win the very first Oscar for Best Animated Film, so we can't exactly say they ignore him- at least on his better days.)

Actually, Shrek did. Spirited Away was a year later.

Plus, didn't Miyazaki announce his retirement several times by now?

He's the Brett Favre of animated films.

Wow people hate American Hustle, what's wrong with that movie? I loved it!

 

[Moff]

Damn McConaughey has got to be at the hight of his career right now, havent seen dallas buyers club, yet, but he's amazing in True Detective

 

[Finaika]

I think people just hate anything american now.

Yea for sure, he's my new favorite actor. Really glad to see him doing more than RomComs.

me too . watched every movie oscar nominated movie in 2013 but American hustle was my favorite. Didn't like wolf of wall street much even tough loved leo in it

 

[Dabanton]

Next year you need someone a little more sharper. Ellen was OK but made it into a hugfest you need a little bite to proceedings.

Makes things a little more fun for the viewer.

 

[Carcetti]

I'm so happy to see Matt Mc win. It's like a precursor award for the True Detective trophies he's going to get.

 

[breakfuss]

I was...entertained. Christian Bale and the soundtrack were probably the highlights for me.

Arguably just as good in Mud. It's crazy.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I want to see the Harrison Ford pizza thing.

 

[Conrad Link]

Yay Frozen!

So happy for both of its awards. Love the movie and song.

 

[Mr-Joker]

Sweet, shame I couldn't watch it at the time but I am glad they won.

The internet today: "OMG POOR LEO"
Amy Adams: "Hmph."

(Leo has 4 acting nominations with 0 wins, Adams has 5).

They're both always outclassed by actors who put their hearts into their roles, not just their skill. I don't ever see passion in either of those two, just a ton of methodology.

Thank god about 6,000 other people would have not agreed with you. Funny movie but there was zero chance of that winning anything when compared to the other contenders.

That cop is going in for some side boob action.

He's trying to cop a feel.

[breakfuss]

responsible for the best scene of the movie

Damn. Had no idea he was in this, too. Must be one hell of an agent.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

If thanking God for big things not crazy then why is thanking God for small things weird?

Agree on Leo but I honestly thought Wolf was different and as some critics put it, perhaps what Scorsese might have been wishing to get out of Leo for so many years. As for Adams, have you seen Junebug?

 

[Radec]

so close Liza Minnelli.

[Finaika]

Wow, who was this?

 

[theignoramus]

Wow people hate American Hustle, what's wrong with that movie? I loved it!

nothing wrong with the movie per se, blame critics and talking heads for making it out to be bigger deal than it was

 

[WJD]

McConaughey's acceptance speech was pretty good.

 

[kmax]

Wow, who was this?

Amy Adams

 

[Doran902]

Yeah I was about to ask the same thing a minute ago.

I have the show recording waiting at home for me, but Ellen is the most off-putting person in the world for me.

I am glad that Leto got it for Dallas Buyers Club, but twelve year slave getting best motion picture is academy being their boring politically correct turds. Disappointed.

I thought 12 Years a Slave was the best movie.

 

[MormaPope]

Salty tears from Leo fans are still coming down this morning. Glorious.

I actually like his performances, but him not winning a Oscar is good natured fun. Children of Men was avenged and the McConaissance is in full swing. Good night for everyone.

 

[theignoramus]

goddamn though, I am fucking pleased about Rust Cohle getting a Best Actor trophy. 10 years ago who in the fuck could have predicted what he's done this year

 

[hamchan]

Thought McConaughey's speech was pretty awesome. The 10 year thing resonated because who seriously thought in 2003 that How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Matthew McConaughey would be winning an Oscar in 2014.

[Phinor]

Rare year for me. I agreed with most of the wins AND they were picks I was hoping for as well. Only major award that didn't "go my way" was best picture, I was hoping for Gravity, The Wolf of Wall Street (long shot) or Short Term 12 (not nominated) but I was expecting 12 Years a Slave. Not a huge fan of it, but it was a good movie with just the right/important story and great oscar marketing push behind it. Anyway, Cuaron for director and Steven Price for score were the two I was rooting for the most.

Also a Leo fan but both actor acting awards went to the right people. Both Leto and McConaughey also gave great speeches.

 

[Eidan]

12 years a Slave winning best picture screamed of pandering. Gravity is the standout movie of 2013.

12 Years a Slave was an amazing movie, and a better one than Gravity.

 

[hamchan]

12 Years a Slave was an amazing movie, and a better one than Gravity.

Why?

 

[GoodlifeX]

Jennifer Lawrence attention seeking attitude is getting pretty old to me. Calling out someone for laughing on stage? Oh wow Jennifer you are so sassy and brimming with personality! Nothing is off limits! Don't mess with you!

 

[Diprosalic]

Where does the internet's obsession with Leo suddenly come from? All the teenager, reddit, buzzfeed crowd seems to be obsessed with him not winning an oscar.

Did it become a meme or something?

I always liked him but I remember everybody hating him after Titanic, i guess they were too young then.

It's been around for a while now. Shit, I wanted him to win it.

 

[Eidan]

Why?

Better acted, better written, better story.

 

[Blader]

Is there a link to MM's full, unedited speech? All the youtube links I've found are chopped up and edited in with other clips.

 

[Diprosalic]

Maybe it's me then but i can't remember such an outcry when he lost for better performances.

I hope they do it for Amy Adams next time too.
