Happy for Ali, been a fan of his since The 4440.

 

[STILLethal]

If they ever get around to remaking Blade, Ali should totally play him.

I can see it...totally

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Technically he is, but he's also only in the second hour of the film.

Ah, ok, I guess.

 

[Technosteve]

Samsung eeally throwing its budget at Casey

 

[Not]

Good speech too

BEST OSCARS

Miranda performance coming

 

[Chase17]

He was also pretty good in his 10 minutes of Hidden Figures.

 

[Razorskin]

Casey!

 

[Realeza]

Haven't seen Moonlight but dude was amazing in Luke Cage so I'm happy for him

Exactly. He was good in Hidden Figures too.

 

[cj_iwakura]

He was too good for that show

Spoiler

The creators thought so too.

 

[TheFlow]

Mahershala Ali, huh? I'm glad he won that Oscar, but he was slight in the film. I would've given it to Shannon or Patel.

So was Shannon and Patel. None of them were in most of the movie

 

[Resident_UA]

This ABC app has terrible sound. Is this the case on live TV as well?

 

[Burbeting]

Ali deserved that win. He was so good in Moonlight.

 

[vatstep]

You know, Casey, we really are the rest of us

 

[El Topo]

Happy Ali won. Glad I stayed up.

 

[Sanjuro]

Walmart tho...

 

[ezekial45]

 

[UltraMagnanimous]

Respect, great speech, and congrats on the new addition to his family!

 

[LionPride]

I think La La Land might lose out to Moonlight for Best Picture, have this feeling

It won't, it's Manchester, La La, or Lion to lose

 

[Quonny]

wat @ walmart

 

[TWrecks310]

Ali winning was the only thing I really cared about, so the Oscars can go smoothly from here

 

[JABEE]

Film crews buy shit from Wal-Mart

 

[Ridley327]

Something about him being in less than half of the movie.

The lead/supporting distinction is somewhat arbitrary. Anthony Hopkins has a lead actor Oscar for a role that was barely 20 minutes of screen time.

 

[metalslimer]

I just realized how great of a year he had last year, Moonlight, Hidden Figures, Luke Cage, and his usual House of Cards role

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Love how Neistat pretends hes not some sponsor shill..mother fucker is doing international Samsung commercials now.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Remy and cottonmouth

 

[gamz]

Happy Ali won. Glad I stayed up.

Me too. Been a fan since 4400 tv series.

 

[MHWilliams]

So was Shannon and Patel. None of them were in most of the movie

Yeah, I'm just saying I didn't feel that was his best performance, in comparison to the work the others did. Glad he got his Oscar though.

Naomie Harris needs to win for Best Supporting.

 

[Officerrob]

I think La La Land might lose out to Moonlight for Best Picture, have this feeling

Hollywood not awarding a film that fellates Hollywood? I wouldn't hold your breath

 

[soundscream]

Mahershala Ali, huh? I'm glad he won that Oscar, but he was slight in the film. I would've given it to Shannon or Patel.

You forgeting Judi Dench in Shakespeare in Love, screen time dont mean a damn thing.

 

[El Topo]

Been a fan since 4400 tv series.

Same. Glad his career has taken off like that.

 

[Not]

Ali winning was the only thing I really cared about, so the Oscars can go smoothly from here

Same. I just didn't want Moonlight to get shut out

 

[Chumley]

Love how Neistat pretends hes not some sponsor shill..mother fucker is doing international Samsung commercials now.

Can't fucking stand the guy. So many people buy into his scrappy indie guy bullshit when he's actually rich as hell.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Hollywood not awarding a film that fellates Hollywood? I wouldn't hold your breath

True, but come on...

 

[Razorskin]

 

[Toad.T]

Medivial Times BTFO.

 

[Lima]

This.

Studios put people in categories they think they have higher chances of winning. Weinstein felt Patel had better chances at supporting. And then you end up with Viola in supporting when she is clearly lead in the movie.

 

[WaffleTaco]

Kind of surprised he won in that film. I mean I guess he was okay, but I wouldn't really say it was an oustanding role.

 

[peteykirch]

Love how Neistat pretends hes not some sponsor shill..mother fucker is doing international Samsung commercials now.

"We don't have fancy cameras"

Then he proceeds to drop and break his 7k DSLR or crash his thousand dollar drone into a wall.

 

[TheSkullPrince]

You forgeting Judi Dench in Shakespeare in Love, screen time dont mean a damn thing.

Or William Hurt in A History of Violence

 

[backflip10019]

Have to wake up at 4am for a flight to GDC tomorrow morning but gosh dang it I'm going to watch this broadcast to the end.

 

[TheFlow]

Yeah, I'm just saying I didn't feel that was his best performance, in comparison to the work the others did. Glad he got his Oscar though.

Naomie Harris needs to win for Best Supporting.

We will disagree on that

 

[duckroll]

Naomie Harris needs to win for Best Supporting.

He's been more prolific in the past year or two I feel, so a win is pretty much an acknowledgement of his mindshare among his peers. As if the Oscars are good for anything else really!

 

[TWrecks310]

This is wrong

 

[DrForester]

Hope Star Trek wins this.

 

[Technosteve]

I like her sexual agression

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

I'm dead

 

[dcelw540]

Jason Bateman looking at her body for a split second I saw that buddy

 

[Speevy]

Mahershayla Ali's performance is probably one of the most true-to-life performances I've seen recently. Not in the sense of the drug dealing, but just his personality. I've met guys like him.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Suicide squad pls

 

[MHWilliams]

We will disagree on that

Ain't no problem with that.

He's been more prolific in the past year or two I feel, so a win is pretty much an acknowledgement of his mindshare among his peers. As if the Oscars are good for anything else really!

Yep, yep. Which is why I said I'm glad he won.
