aradia22 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 I think there's a bit of sharpness there. With the "whitest" comment. Shoutout to David Oyelowo's snub. The Annie joke. I don't know. I just think NPH is adorable. 3 Link to comment

Misslindsey February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 My five-year-old niece loves Gwyneth's dress. She does love flowers and the color pink. She said she would love it more if it had sparkles. 1 Link to comment
merylinkid February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Why does it matter than Tim McGraw is Gwinnie's friend? These people are so self-involved. Why am I watching? I think there is a cheesy scifi flick I could be watching. 7 Link to comment

Rick Kitchen February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 This thing with the guy from Selma is borderline offensive. Huh? Why? Link to comment
Irlandesa February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Man this is painful to watch. A good comedian needs to host this show not an actor. The Tonys are one thing that group doesn't have a stick up his ass this group does. Still pissed that Lego Movie didn't get nominated. A good comedian would likely get a cold reception as well. I feel like this audience has just gotten colder over the past few years. Even Billy Crystal, one of the consummate Oscar hosts, seemed to struggle. Oscars need to do what the Golden Globes do and serve this group alochol. 17 Link to comment

mojoween February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Is it some contractual obligation that every time Gwyneth stupid Paltrow announces someone she has to make sure the copy says they're her friend? She makes it incredibly difficult to like her. 15 Link to comment
thuganomics85 February 23, 2015 Author Share February 23, 2015 It seems like the only time NPH gets any kind of reaction from this audience, it's when making a reference to the Selma snubs. Won't be surprised if he keeps dipping back into this pool. Too bad it was all just the set-up for a typical "Everything sounds better British!", which I felt like has been played out.

dubbel zout February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Since Julia Roberts isn't there to make it all about her, Gwynnie is picking up the slack. 13 Link to comment
CPP83 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 (edited) That had to be the third speech so far that they tried to play someone off the stage while they spoke about a dead loved one/s. This time involving a mother losing her son to suicide...they really want tonight to be remembered for all the wrong reasons I guess. They're going to the "British accents make everything funny" route? Oh lord...just when you think it can't get worse. Something pink and furry was eating Gwen's shoulder. Too bad it didn't start with her head... Edited February 23, 2015 by CPP83 5 Link to comment
mtlchick February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Oprah is just having *none* of this. I think Steadman's trying to figure out why they're even there. But it has been 20 years since the Uma, Oprah debacle. It's time to bring that back. 2 Link to comment
Serendipity February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Gwyneth did it for me. I am out. Most boring Oscars in a while. And that is saying something. 1 Link to comment
bmoore4026 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 As much as I want the Lego Movie song to win, this song is what's gripping me. I loved Glen Campbell's music, so hearing this is getting to me. 5 Link to comment
cooksdelight February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 I was not paying attention. What song is this movie from? A documentary about Glen Campbell and his decline due to Alzheimer's. The last song he ever wrote. This is one time I'd have liked to see the song actually being sung by Glen in the film. 12 Link to comment
Mumbles February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 This thing with the guy from Selma is borderline offensive. Oprah was giving NPH the death stare. This show lacks Hollywood royalty. Sadly it's been like that for years. When I was a kid, the presenters were A list people. Now Dakota Johnson is doing presentations (no dig against her, but she's not A list yet). And if they wasted Shirley McClaine mid-show and use some boring TV person or meh movie actor to give out a major award, that would be annoying. If IMDB is right, Maureen O'Hara will be 95 this year. She sounded great. 7 Link to comment

candall February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 (edited) I loooooved the shot of the two ladies' husbands both taking pictures of them on cellphones. You know they both said, "If we win, be sure to take my picture on the stage." Good man! Edited February 23, 2015 by candall 7 Link to comment
aradia22 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 I don't love Gwyneth's dress but I don't hate it either. I think it doesn't flatter her figure that much and makes her look straighter (as opposed to curvier) than she is but I kind of like just going for a giant rose given all the stupid ruffles and shoulder lifeforms we usually see. Just own it. It's a big flower. Link to comment
roseha February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 (edited) Dr. Skoda, shrink...and Oscar winner. Woot! I tuned in in hope of Skoda winning the Oscar! Yes! Thanks to the Academy for always starting with best supporting actor. If they wanted to make this show classier, they would present the Governor's Award as part of the show live. Congrats to all four recipients, well deserved needless to say. Edited February 23, 2015 by roseha 3 Link to comment
ByaNose February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Tim was awesome. Beautifully sung. I saw an earlier (far away) shot of Oprah putting her head in her hand at a NPH joke. She is not into.him.at.all.tonight. 2 Link to comment
loriro February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 I think there is a cheesy scifi flick I could be watching. Hah... that's funny. I was just thinking about the fact that I caught the first part of "Cloverfield" the other day on SyFy channel and was remarkably disappointed that I had to leave before it was over. I hope it's on "On Demand". Link to comment
aradia22 February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 It seems like the only time NPH gets any kind of reaction from this audience, it's when making a reference to the Selma snubs. Weird. If they cared so much about Selma, maybe they shouldn't have snubbed them in the first place. 8 Link to comment
Misslindsey February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 Even Billy Crystal, one of the consummate Oscar hosts, seemed to struggle. I will be at my table for one for rarely finding Billy Crystal funny. I thought when he returned to host he was so bad. I just think this is a hard show to host. Is it some contractual obligation that every time Gwyneth stupid Paltrow announces someone she has to make sure the copy says they're her friend? I think she is like Taylor Swift with all their "friends". I think they confuse "friends" with "acquaintances". 5 Link to comment

I agree, it must be hell to try and be funny in that tense dead-serious atmosphere. Like trying to do standup comedy during a job interview. 2 Link to comment

Dejana February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 (edited) They probably mostly throw it out since they make more money than God yet act like they are all about the less fortunate.A lot of gift bag goodies get passed on to family members, friends and assistants.The Oscars are what they are. They're not going to be streamlined or serve booze inside the ceremony, especially since the Globes already do that. The montages are demanded by the studios to promote their back catalogues. The hosts that would go over well with the audience inside the room and "middle America" seem to be frowned upon by the "cool kids". Edited February 23, 2015 by Dejana 2 Link to comment
