[ebk57]

Can they send a flu shot to my living room right now?  I'm *this* close to getting sick.   I won't have a napkin on my head.

Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse should be mentioned in the same breath as Black Panther and Crazy Rich Asians.  Having a Black/Latino Spider-Man is truly a high point for representation.  And a female.  And a young Asian girl.  Amazing movie and not just from the animation viewpoint.

And a pig. Shout out to my porcine brothers and sisters.

Jamie: What do directors do?

Ben: Directors tell actors what to do.

Jamie: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Any actor will totally get Jamie's response.

[Bill1978]

Really loving Sandra Oh. My opinion has always been clouded by her grumpy sad sack character from Grey's. Who knew she was actually fun? Probably every one but me.

[Neeners]

Not a fan of Lucy's hair or her dress.

[Cupcake04]

OMG Frank Gallagher Pepsi commerical is great!  

[Thumper]

Have read that  the critics love "The Favorite."   Not so much us real people.  Probably too high-brow/artsy for me.

Uh....Lucy Liu's dress is...uh....something.

She was hilarious on Greys. Had some of the snarkiest one liners.

[leighdear]

By the way, English Scandal is really good. Hugh really acted his butt off.

I think I would have preferred to see her host as Yang. I too always thought she was like that in real life, and I'm a bit disappointed to see her all perky and bubbly.

[Neeners]

I was all excited thinking that was going to be Jack Nicholson. I've never been disappointed to see Steve Carrell. Until now.

[WhosThatGirl]

Well I mean it’s.. okay. I sadly feel bad for any hosts who aren’t Amy or Tina. It just never works for me.

[ShadowHunter]

Congrats to Carol Burnett I'm glad she won lol.

[Sugar]

OMG, Carlot Burnett looking all tear-eyed and verklempt has me sobbing in my shitty armchair. 

[wallflower75]

Hey wait wait wait--what got bleeped there?

[leighdear]

Are they bleeping folks?

[thuganomics85]

Heh, Steve Carrell probably could have said "She makes Tom Hanks look like a jerk", and they would have still censored it for daring to insult The Hanks!

[mtlchick]

"She makes Tom Hanks looks like an asshole."  Mwah.

She was hilarious in The Princess Diaries.

I'm going to guess he said she's so nice she makes Tom Hanks look like an asshole.  Or something like that.

[Neeners]

The bleeping was "Made Tom Hanks Look Like An Asshole". I think.

I have never seen that moment and burst out loud with the punchline.  Also happy they included a clip from her time on Glee.

[Sugar]

I moved to Canada from Poland when I was 5, and I used to watch re-runs of the Carol Burnett show when I first got here. I couldn't speak English and didn't understand anything, but you really didn't need to - Carol was hilarious. I'm so happy for her, and she looks fantastic.

[Machiabelly]

I was sure Christian Bale would win it.

[Thumper]

LOVE Carol Burnett!  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

So many great memories of watching her variety show years ago.  

Tim cracking up Harvey always cracked me up.

Thank you, Carol!

When Steve Carell started talking, I thought he was joking about there being a Carol Burnett award, and then I realized that there really was one--how awesome is that?  :)

I really wish I could see episodes of her show.

[ebk57]

Idris Elba - yummmmmmm

 

Taylor could have been a little more responsive to him... 

Edited January 7, 2019 by ebk57

[tennisgurl]

Can we get the Carol Burnett show on Netflix sometime soon?!

[mtlchick]

Carol Burnett's show is a lost art form.  

 

Idris Elba. Keep talking.  I don't care about what, just keep talking.

[Neeners]

Holy Idris.

[shantown]

Kaley Cucou didn't stand for Carol Burnett, WTH? 

[tennisgurl]

The quest to get to the stage!

[thuganomics85]

Hey, First Man won something!  I'm just happy for it seems like its the "Former Frontrunner Turned Likely Shut Out at all the Main Awards*" film of 2018.

 

* Baring a Claire Foy nomination.

Lucy Liu's dress is thousands of dollars of terrible.

[mojoween]

Um, Taylor, when Idris Elba says you look nice (and he was lying by the way, that dress is awful) the polite thing to say is “thank you Idris and may I say that you are smoking hot and I should send my agent a big fat check in thanks for allowing me to present with you”.

[Bill1978]

Taylor Swift. Urgh. And she is presenting the two awards I care the most about during Awards season

I was hoping Marc Shaiman would win Best Score. I love how orchestral and old school it all is.

Shallow wins. Yawn. Next!!

[tennisgurl]

Oh yeah, knew that A Star is Born would nail that one. Well deserved, that was some movie magic. 

[thuganomics85]

And the first of what will likely be many wins for "Shallow" and Lady Gaga.  And Bradley Cooper getting name-dropped!

[mtlchick]

Mark Ronson's words to Gaga is making me cry.

On another thread, people are calling him out for objectifying her, but I think it showed remarkable restraint on her part to not objectify the SHIT out of him. I mean, I pretty much dry humped my computer screen the second he came out, so I guess I'm guilty as well.....
