Not always but it has built up so much steam at this point that it is hard to beat. Unless it's Cars 2 bad, it's gonna win.

Brave was pretty damn close to Cars 2-bad.

 

[SlowRevolution]

Why are they playing this

 

[Brinbe]

It's not gonna win but I love that Beasts is getting this attention. Such a wonderful film.

I don't know anything about sound mixing in film. What was the benefit of having the cast sing live?

Allows the actors to emote/improvise on the fly

 

[7Th]

Every other movie deserved it more than Brave.

Street cred, I guess.

Is Russell Crowe as terrible in Les Miserables as everyone seems to say?

He'll be performing, along with the rest of the cast, later in the broadcast. If they don't cut his solo, you'll be able to hear for yourself.

Is Russell Crowe as terrible in Les Miserables as everyone seems to say?

Not at all. He's not a great singer, but he's fine, his performance is solid amongst some great ones.

Is Russell Crowe as terrible in Les Miserables as everyone seems to say?

No, he wasn't as horrible as everyone says. He wasn't the strongest singer, but it wasn't terrible.

 

[Dmax3901]

Where are you guys watching? On TV? Is there a livesteam that's.. live?

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

This new formatting is confusing.

 

[Raxus]

Of the nominated animated films I have only Brave and Wreck it Ralph.
Brave was okay, but Wreck it Ralph was far better.

If I recall nearly every nominee was better than Brave. Paranorman is pretty good. I recommend you watch it when you get the chance.

There usually isn't one just makes it hard as shit to do.

But its "authentic".

 

[felialois20]

I didn't like Beasts... at all, i'm I a horrible person??

 

[Quick]

I was assuming they'd do Best Picture nominees one-by-one.

 

[polyh3dron]

yes

movie is still good in spite of him

Agree Bowser, agree.

 

[mclem]

Does livestream.com actually have the event? It keeps wanting to throw repeats of red carpet stuff at me.

 

[789shadow]

I don't know why I find this funny.

 

[crazy monkey]

medagascar 4 and ice age were better then brave. Fuck brave.

 

[petethepanda]

Ugh, Brave.

Didn't occur to me until today that pretty much every stop-motion film was nominated. Very cool.

 

[ComputerMKII]

Casting a fat, short Javert proves they don't know anything about Victor Hugo's novel.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Dat Clooney joke :O

 

[friskykillface]

lol George opening the bottle

 

[ari]

i honestly believe that beasts was the best film last year. I watched every film nominated and i really believe that.

 

[Clydefrog]

rofl @ clooney opening the bottle

 

[Oersted]

Stop cracking up over your own jokes.

 

[richiek]

AVENGERS ASSEMBLE

Wait, where's Scarlett?

 

[Kobe24]

[Charles Foster Kane]

medagascar 4 and ice age were better then brave. Fuck brave.

NO WAY.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I would have swore that was one woman on the Avengers

 

[cruets]

Hopefully someone gif that.

 

[Rookje]

Bad

It sounds more natural and doesn't look like they're lip-synching.

Not sure if it was entirely worth it in the end since some of the vocal performances were pretty weak.

 

[SteveWinwood]

rofl @ clooney opening the bottle

I would have downed it right then and there.

 

[nhlducks35]

Where's Scarlett?

 

[EatinOlives]

Ugh. I knew they were going to go with Brave over Wreck-It Ralph.

The fact that Wreck-It Ralph was about video games made sure it would never be a contender in the eyes of the Academy.

This so hard. You can tell they didn't even consider it for having such a "kiddy" premise.

 

[TheKaeptain]

I would have swore that was one woman on the Avengers

Renner is right there dude!

 

[thecouncil]

AVENGERS ASSEMBLE

Wait, where's Scarlett?

Or Thor.

 

[Jimothy]

SLJ doesn't want to be there.

 

[789shadow]

Who's that rat next to Sam?

 

[genericsuperhero]

Sam Jackson like a boss in his maroon velvet jacket

 

[-Kees-]

And Roger Deakins loses to.....

 

[shadyspace]

Go fuck yourself Renner

 

[criesofthepast]

Sam just don't give a fuck hahah
