Wait
WHAT?

 

[TheGreatDirector]

 

[Yousefb]

Fuck! I literally turned off the tv as they started giving the acceptance speech for La La Land. Completely missed the screw up! Anyone got a link?

 

[Dereck]

lmao

 

[ReplacementPelican]

Wait what

Well I guess they don't tell the Twitter guys before the awards are handed out, they take it very seriously so they just have all options ready to tweet.

Shook though, gonna be a historical TV moment. Too many people gleeful here though, that must've been horrible for all involved in La La Land whether or not you want to be pretentious about that movie.

Happy Moonlight won, was the last film I saw before the Oscars and absolutely loved it.

 

[Kayhan]

Hollywood is literally FAKE NEWS.

 

[Leeness]

I seriously can't get over how awkward that was.

 

[Toby Dammit]

La la land was so much better than Moonlight
Best picture should've been MBTS, so I really don't care

 

[Jigorath]

I like that Moonlight won.

I LOVE that Moonlight won in such a hilarious fashion.

Best Oscar moment ever.

 

[TWrecks310]

I feel bad for La La Land to be honest I wish Moonlight won straight up.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

I'm still annoyed I shut that stream down.

 

[Scotch]

that was all staged right?

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

 

[Eria]

La La Land got robbed

 

[GitarooMan]

WOW at the academy. Can they honestly believe that we wouldn't know that this is an obvious publicity stunt ?

Why would this be a stunt? It's a fucking massive embarrassment

 

[DrForester]

 

[Floridian]

To think I bullshitted the OT title cuz I couldn't think of anything else but it really represented what happened tonight, lol.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

This is probably what happened the year Crash won.

 

[Damerman]

BEST PICTURE
Arrival
Fences
Hacksaw Ridge
Hell or High Water
Hidden Figures
La La Land
Lion
Manchester by the Sea
Moonlight

You were too ready.

 

[Stat!]

Kimmel rocked this. Handled the massive flub as the end like a boss.

Totally agree. He nailed it.

 

[Trouble]

I turned if off right after the announcement. I can't believe I missed whatever the fuck just happened.

 

[dickroach]

What is kayfabe and what is not

the tour bus gang being pranked was fake
the fuck up at the end was real

 

[Gutek]

What the fuck is with all this schadenfreude in here? Great for Moonlight, but La La Land people must feel terrible right now.

 

[Ominym]

If that was staged, that was a really cruel prank to play to the people that worked so hard on La La Land.

It's all fun and games for us, but can you imagine how horrible some of the little guys that got to go up on stage must be feeling?

Yeah, a staged trick like this only works if all involved knew it was coming. Otherwise it'd be pretty cruel.

 

[matrixman92]

This is disguisting, poor moonlight! They deserved better treatment.

uhhhh, what? You mean La la land?

 

[Nesotenso]

the amount of hate that LLL engenders just astounds me. it is like the movie kicked everyone personally in the nuts.
had a feeling Moonlight would win it when LLL got best director.

 

[fr0st]

Someone CSI this shit

 

[Natiko]

Congrats to Moonlight, even if it was only the fourth best movie I saw this year. At the very least it was tackling the best topics.

 

[shoelacer]

Literally the most exciting thing I have ever seen at any of these dumb award shows. Jesus Christ almighty, what a fuckup.

 

[Future Foundation]

What was the song playing during the end credits?

Battle Without Honor or Humanity

 

[ColdPizza]

What was the song playing during the end credits?

Don't know what it's called but it's been around.

[Meowster]

Poor Faye Dunaway. Warren Beatty really threw her under the bus with that.

 

[Secret Fawful]

YAAAS WAHAHAHAHAHA you don't get the BP win, La La Land! Go sit in the corner WAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

 

[manzoman96]

this is amazing hahahahaha. Mostly lame Oscars (award wise; Kimmel was great) became one of the best at the very end.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

lol Hollywood awards show needs it's Hollywood ending.

Both deserved BP so who gives a shit.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I guess Moonlight was the Higher Power

 

[Xe4]

Awards for 2016 awards have to 2016 up


Biggest blown lead?

Falcons, Warriors, Indians or La La Land?

Or Hillary? Only time will tell.

 

[Kindekuma]

Not even Hideo Kojima could come up with a plot twist on this scale.

 

[Black Republican]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Memento]

I NEED A LINK

I TURNED IT OFF WHEN LALALAND WON

 

[Icolin]

Even though it won 3 other awards...man those La La Land guys must be Denzel level fuckin heated.

 

[msdstc]

Just glad casey got his oscar.

 

[Yousefb]

I NEED A LINK

I TURNED IT OFF WHEN LALALAND WON

Same!!!

 

[Boke1879]

This is one for the history books. But damn Moonligjt deserved to be surprised by their win loll

 

[perfectchaos007]

i don't want to refresh...

Fake news!

 

[boxter432]

lol at that pre scripted note at the end. PWC and or a stagehand/envelope manager (whatever the term should be) fucked up.

 

[Arttemis]

What a night! I'm very glad Warren Beatty got to explain himself.

 

[DrForester]

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

I can't imagine there's any way that Beatty could have been "accidentally" given the award card for the previous category.

 

[Donthizz#]

CERN is responsible for this shit. I demand an investigation.

 

[mackaveli]

Trumps definitely going to tweet something.

 

[jstripes]

Did that actually just happen?

Amazing.

Not even Hideo Kojima could come up with a plot twist on this scale.

Hideo Kojima is a big fan of La La Land.
