No, they haven't. He hasn't done a film relative to this one prior either.

So you've seen Hunger and Shame? Do you really think the director of those films would suddenly go make a pandering white guilt trip movie? Around Oscar time it's important not to conflate marketing campaigns with the actual cinema.

Yep.

12YAS for best film
Cuaron for director
Ejiofor for actor
Blanchett for actress

Think these are Oscar locks although McQueen as first black director could pull it off

I don't like throwing around the word locked, but I agree with those pic and director as the strongest favorites. Still not sure on Ejiofor and Blanchett as no doubt acting wins.

12 Years was pretty much a lock for Best Picture. It was a smorgasbord of winners, nice that not one movie swept.

Also

Charles Foster Kane

I'm well aware. A director's filmography is not always indicative of all future productions.

He probably thinks this is the director of 12YAS:

U2 getting a Golden Globe for Mandela-related stuff is such bullshit. They must have really helped a lot of people make a lot of money.

They really need to stop the bullshit with these "comedy" categories
Yeah, pretty silly. Most of those movies aren't strictly comedies or musicals. They have a lot of drama in them too. I'm looking forward to the Oscars a lot more this year. The competition will be pretty crazy.
Also, Lupita Nyong’o got robbed for best actress. I'm also really surprised with the McConaughey and Leto wins, mainly because I haven't even heard of that movie and the other actors were so strong.

I don't know if I'm watching the tape delay being on the West coast.. but this dude from Brooklyn 99 who just won... um... the presenter lady kissed him on his lips...with his wife in the audience?

is this just normal now? or has been for a long time?

I know some sistas who were mad at Julia Roberts for celebrating with Denzel for his win.. I forget if she kissed him, but those females make it seem so.
 
i didn't mind any of the wins (for film). except for jennifer lawrence. fucking joke how she beat lupita tbh.

i hope mcconaughey wins the oscar too but i wouldn't be mad if chiwetel got it because he did so well.

drunk emma thompson was the best part of this show.
 
Fey and Poehler should just host everything. Love them so much.

F**k yeah to Poehler finally winning something too, and I'm happy for Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Samberg for the surprise win! :D Really funny show and I'm glad it got recognised because I wasn't expecting it to.

Frozen song should have won :( I joked to my GF that Bono wasn't showing up unless he won so Frozen would miss and out and yeeap. Ah well at least it won for best animated movie. :)

Everything else I don't really have opinions on so I was relatively happy for a change!

Jennifer Lawrence beating Lupito should be no surprise Jlaw's role is catnip to the people who vote for these awards. It's very showy and very funny. Lupita's is a lot more restrained but more thoughtfully devastating.

It's going to be a very,very hard choice this year for the Oscars so many good actors and films much more than the last few years.

It's good that Top of the Lake got some recognition, more people should watch it. Also, gotta love Jennifer Lawrence and her antics.

Great to see House of Cards and Brooklyn Nine Nine get some awards. Taylor Shilling should have at least won something.

Can Anyone link Fey and Poehlers opening monologue?
