RAMI!!!! That's all I cared about tonight. To think this guy I discovered when I decided to check out this Christian Slater show Mr. Robot because it sounded interesting, is now an Oscar winner. Man Bohemian Rhapsody truly was the little movie that could.

Interesting that actor who lip synced (mostly) an impression of a real musician wins over an actor who learns to play guitar and piano, and learns to sing a (mostly) original character.  Just wasn't that impressed with the craftsianship of Rami Malek. 

If this is a BCoop reference, it's also the fourth time that particular movie has been made. I think ultimately that worked against him. However, everything about this awards season has been mind-boggling to me. I do not understand all of the love that Bohemian or Green Book have been getting. Both were perfectly okay movies but I wasn't blown away.

Unfortunately I think the movie's promotion became all about Gaga. I agree that Bradley Cooper made Jackson Maine warm and sweet which made his spiral downwards sadder. And he's a good singer.

Its so wild that just a few years ago, Rami was one of several semi known actors I was aware of because they went to school near where I went to school. Look at him now!

Where did you go to school? I live in Evansville, where Rami when to college.

We did get a bit of Stanley Donen in the clip with Albert Finney and Audrey Hepburn, in Two For The Road.  I'll have to play it back because I didn't catch if Dick Miller was included, and honestly that's someone that should have been if he wasn't. 
 

I like the no host deal, it's clipping right along.

I went to college at USI, and had tons of friends who went to college at UoE, where he went to school! I have lots of friends in Evansville still 🙂 

Small world!
