[scarynikki12]

Joaquin as expected. 

[Ohwell]

Is he high or drunk or both?

Haven't seen The Joker, not sure I have any interest in seeing it.  So...eh.

It's great performance but a hard movie to sit through. 

[Fostersmom]

The crowd isn't looking thrilled. 

[Toodleoo]

HAHAHHAHAH de Niro’s face!

This sounds really odd, but every time I see Joaquin, I get sad that his brother River isn't around to see his success. 

River’s fiftieth birthday is coming up if you can believe it.

The one who probably cares the least about winning is the one who won.

I don't know. Most of his speech was bleeped. 

[pinkandsparkly13]

I'm not watching the show but I looked at some pictures of the fashion. What's with all the big puffy sleeves? Is that what's going to be "on trend" next? No thanks! Lol and so many "bad prom" looks. I guess fashion shouldn't matter so much but geez! What's happening?!

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Joaquin completely ignored Rooney. 

[scarynikki12]

They need to release transcripts of the bleeped parts. 

[Growsonwalls]

Uh ... I can never tell whether Joaquin is is on the spectrum or just really weird. Or really good at acting weird.

[Ohwell]

This is embarrassing.

[bmoore4026]

I wish he wouldn't cuss so much because I hate the sound cutting out.

[MVFrostsMyPie]

Is he going to propose?

1986 is coming for us all.

I still can't get over the fact they are together. And he's being played off...

He said “Rooney...” and then got choked up and moved on.

He makes me so nervous watching from across the country.

I think the answer to all is”yes”.

[scarynikki12]

Ok Joaquin is a bit drunk but it’s bringing forth emotions so I’m strangely ok with it. 

[TVFan17]

He'll probably toss that award into a storage bin as soon as he gets home.

Here in Australia we got no censorship, it was just Joaquin dropping the F bomb in sentences where it wasn't really necessary. I would tell you the full sentences but the speech was so boring I fell asleep.

Yeah I meant when they announced his name and he got up to walk to the stage.

[thuganomics85]

Okay, I almost want Joaquin to win the Oscar now just to see what in the hell he would do on that telecast.  At this point, I could see him ending it with him breaking his Oscar and screaming "Fuck awards!"

[ebk57]

Because it seems I'm high and drunk too...

There goes his chance at an Oscar. Lol. Adam Driver just picked up some votes.

Deniro  was not amused.

I had the same question.

He definitely mentioned her because they showed her - I wasn't aware they were a couple till just then.

I don't think ignored but he sort of choked up looking at her.  Which is better than whatever half his speech was about.  I have a feeling the part about private jets was a direct shot at Leo.  I know there was a point in his speech, but he rambled so much that I'm not sure what his point was.

I think he's still messed up from River's death and the less than traditional way his parents looked at raising kids.. And I remember when his name was Leaf. 

[MVFrostsMyPie]

I don't mean in the speech.

[MerBearHou]

Joaquin seemed to get choked up for a second when he mentioned Rooney but then he should’ve pulled himself together for a moment to actually say something about her!  I think Joaquin is one of those who tries very, very hard to be weird.  I’m sure much of it is “him” but much of it seems like a poseur.  I have no desire to see “Joker” but like Heath, it sounds like Joaquin gave it his all and then some and got acknowledged for it.

I couldn’t tell if he got choked up or bleeped.

I think Adam Driver is doing The Last Duel with Jodie Comer and Matt Damon. So he may have a chance again next year.

Ahh I gotcha.  

Kinda like when Taron hugged everyone at his table BESIDES Elton.

I thought the same thing, especially when he said he wasn’t trying to “rock the boat”.  I thought it was leading to a proposal.

Dave Letterman had the best reaction to his weirdness. "Joaquin I'm sorry you couldn't be here tonight ..."

The wireless Uverse box in my room or the local NBC is apparently putting me a minute or two behind and it's driving me crazy. I see things mentioned here that don't happen until after I've read about them.

"Still I would have shared the raft."

Hee!  (Also that should be directed to Kate Winslet.) 

There is a hilarious clip of Keke Palmer on the Steve Harvey show and she is big mad at Rose for not sharing the door with Leo on Titanic.  She goes off.  And the end she looks at the camera and says 'Kate Winslet, you know what you did." very accusingly.  It was quite funny.

I am glad about that dig.  LDC the great environmentalist who always takes private jets.

 

at least, Keanu flies commercial.

I briefly contemplated watching Marriage Story for about 3 seconds, but I don't like Scarlett Johansen, Adam Driver, or marriage.

It sounds so bloody depressing. Oh hey yeah, let's watch a marriage fall apart. Woo hoo! Why are all the films so depressing? I remember when Room was winning all the awards. Fuck that. No I don't want to watch this unbelievably depressing kidnap movie.

He has bugged me ever since his star turn in Space Camp.

Which is weird since Leo grabbed him on the way up to give him a hug, and Joaquin barely noticed.

To me, he seemed socially awkward and uncomfortable, and it comes across as phony and deliberately weird. Just my opinion, though. 

[mightysparrow]

I once saw Joaquin Phoenix at a film premiere and he was more fucked up than just about anyone I've ever seen.  He couldn't stand up by himself, so one of his co-stars and the director held him up.  The one thing that I noticed is that it seemed that all the people connected with the film were VERY concerned about him and seemed to care about him a great deal.  I remember feeling angry at him because he had watched his beautiful brother die of a drug overdose in a parking lot.  I hope he's clean for his sake and for all the people who really seem to love him.

I'm watching on Hulu and having the same problem. I keep hitting refresh and getting spoiled!

[sally-can-wait]

Renee is great but Judy is a brutal watch. 

[thuganomics85]

Renee over Scarlett?  Called that wrong.  Acting categories are going to be interesting this year!
