This speech feels a bit....much

Actors are dramatic as fuck.

 

[Platy]

Anyone can pm me a stream link ?

I want to kill the person doing the live dubbing and SAP is not working...

 

[friskykillface]

DC cleaning up at the Oscars

 

[cj_iwakura]

Surprised they haven't played her off, that was awesome

Actresses get more speech time than every tech award combined.

 

[DAVIDHUXLEY]

Viola played off to "The heat is on " from Beverly Hills Cop. Huh?

 

[The Omega Man]

Suicide Squad won an oscar?

Holy crap, it has evolved!!

 

[Somnia]

She's been acting for a long time and lost multiple times before this, she's clearly emotional.

 

[Zabka]

Suicide Squad won an oscar?

You've ruined society

 

[Kayhan]

DCEU: "2 Oscars, Marvel are you even trying?"

Slayern, post if you are OK.

 

[Einchy]

They rather play off a guy dedicating it to his dead wife

Dude, that was so fucked.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Glad thats over..chill out lady. Its an acting award not the cure for cancer.

 

[dickroach]

Did anyone ask for a performance by Sting.

sure, 30 years ago

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Yo, Viola.

 

[JTripper]

MCU
>10 years of films
>21 films
>0 Oscars

DCU
Already with 2 Oscars in the bag

 

[Anung]

I thought she was Mel Gibson's daughter

I thought she was Jackie Chan's daughter?

 

[Officerrob]

How much money did Wal-Mart waste on this garbage?

 

[shintoki]

They probably didn't want her losing to Emma Stone.

This.

It's a leading actress versus supporting. Others didn't have a chance

 

[Discotheque]

Michelle is so good but she was only in for 10 minutes

Viola deserved the award more even tho it's not really a supporting performance

 

[Gobias]

The only profession that celebrates life.

wut

That was a bit much

 

[a916]

That scene is why she was nominated. It's pretty incredible.

Agreed. I would probably give it to her because she did so much with such little screen time.

 

[Obliterator]

Actors are dramatic as fuck.

Yeah I'm not hating or anything just felt a little bit over the top

Like that "Only profession that celebrates life". Uh how about doctors that deliver babies? Or firefighters? Or plenty of other ones

 

[Technosteve]

Samsung lol we promise our phone's not going to blow up again

 

[shoelacer]

Man this walmart shit is unbearable. This whole show is so up it's own ass and these commercials are icing on the cake

 

[U2NUMB]

Quality is our priority... I wonder why Samsung.

;^)

 

[boxter432]

Wtf was that speech even about?

 

[JABEE]

She's been acting for a long time and lost multiple times before this, she's clearly emotional.

She shouldn't have been in that category despite her great performance. She was a lead.

 

[MIMIC]

Is Lion good I saw the 60 minutes where they basically spelled out the whole movie and didnt feel like checking it out.

After the interviews and seeing the real guy and how everything worked out I lost any interest

It's great. Definitely a tear-jerker

 

[thecouncil]

She just won another award for that performance.

 

[matrixman92]

They rather play off a guy dedicating it to his dead wife

Did that happen earlier? I just tuned in

But how many good films though?

Spoiler

 

[breakfuss]

Glad thats over..chill out lady. Its an acting award not the cure for cancer.

Lol haha I'm happy for her but yea some of them are a little overwrought

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

It's a joke.


Seriously dude, chiiiiiiiiiiill.

No you Resist!

 

[HStallion]

Emma Stone is Viola Davis' daughter?

No she's Lucy Liu's daughter.

 

[RastaMentality]

Viola only just hit strides in her career at age 45. let her be emotional.

 

[backflip10019]

Wtf was that speech even about?

Viola's start in the business as a gravedigger.

 

[Loxley]

Glad thats over..chill out lady. Its an acting award not the cure for cancer.

I mean, sure, but very few black women have ever won that award. She's totally in the right to soak it in for all its worth.

 

[Moppeh]

Can someone explain what is going on in these Walmart ads? I'm not getting them on my stream.

 

[B33]

But how many good films though?

Spoiler

0

 

[starchild excalibur]

here's somebody who did expect to win and has been practicing a speech for weeks.

Seriously. She's a great actor and deserved the win, but the only thing I could think of during that speech was, "This feels like a performance." And I fully acknowledge that I could be 100% wrong on that take.

 

[Blader]

She shouldn't have been in that category despite her great performance. She was a lead.

She was way more likely to win supporting than lead.

 

[Kayhan]

The only profession that celebrates life.

wut

I never should have gone to Medical school.

 

[Discotheque]

But how many good films though?

Spoiler

1 > mcu

1 more or less with most of their output

1 shittier than all of them

And 1 makeup Oscar that people on the Internet will be mad about for some inexplicable reason. Piece of crap but that croc and joker makeup was pretty solid

 

[Qwyjibo]

That was a bit of rambling in that speech. If you're going to play off the lesser awards, you kinda need to stop some of these actors too.

 

[killertofu]

Suicide Squad won an oscar?

Fucking amazing

 

[dickroach]

Can someone explain what is going on in these Walmart ads? I'm not getting them on my stream.

yeah I'm not getting them either. watching ABC in NY

 

[Lima]

Is Lion good I saw the 60 minutes where they basically spelled out the whole movie and didnt feel like checking it out.

Watch the first half of the movie and then turn it off once it gets to Dev Patel.

 

[Not]

Did that happen earlier? I just tuned in

Yup. Not the Academy's finest moment, and that's saying something

They'll probably have to do some damage control there with a tribute to his wife or something

 

[Jigolo]

Wtf was that speech even about?

Yeah that was awful lol

 

[manzoman96]

Junior Mints are nice
