The Annual Academy Awards - General Discussion

[DollEyes]

I didn't know Megan Thee Stallion was in "Encanto."

[scarynikki12]

Nice legs Wanda.

[superdeluxe]

That Bruno performance was trash.  That was not the song.

[Browncoat]

And now we have the cringy wake-up sketch.

[dmeets]

Ahh, here’s the cringe host segment right on time

[Lady Calypso]

Ok, I'm so fine with this Juno clip.

Hey, we even get Jennifer, Elliot, and JK to show up, which makes the clip make sense to be shown!

[wallflower75]

I need to watch Juno again.

At least it was quick.

[nilyank]

We don't talk about Bruno is a lively song with a bunch of style mixed in and building together for the chorus.

This was just watered down, listless and no joy with the non Miranda lyrics.

Several of them have donated.

How do you know that? I have to agree with Marley, that I always have a problem with celebrities asking "regular" people to donate to a cause. Even if they all gave a zillion dollars, which no one knows if they have or not, it wouldn't change the fact that they are asking people who have far less, to donate. Also, since a gas crisis is occurring, you would think that people would think twice about arriving in limos, but guess not. Maybe that's why Beyonce arrived on a horse.

[scarynikki12]

Kenneth for Belfast!!!!! 

[Avabelle]

I’m delighted for Kenneth! 

[dmeets]

Branagh’s first win? Wow

[Browncoat]

Nice.  Congrats, Kenneth!

[Shannon L.]

Sorry, double post.

[Lady Whistleup]

Yay I've liked Branagh for years. Glad he finally won. 

[Quickbeam]

Kenneth! Long overdue. He is my Henry V.

[wallflower75]

Haven't seen Belfast yet, but yay for Kenneth!

[Sweet Tee]

Wow, is this seriously his first Oscar win ever?  That surprises me.

[Slade347]

Nothing says Adapted Screenplay  like Shawn Mendes.

[Shannon L.]

Jennifer Garner was my favorite part of Juno. She was wonderful. 

[BuckeyeLou]

Yikes!  Tracee's dress is Very Revealing!

[yowsah1]

I can't pay attention to anything Tracee Ross-Ellis is saying because I am waiting for her to come out of her dress.

[DollEyes]

Kenneth Branagh's first Oscar ever. Better late than never. 

[LisaM]

Tracee Ellis Ross is dangerously close to a wardrobe malfunction.

[Artsda]

Shawn Mendes is probably thinking that was dumb.

Every time I see it I keep hoping the glue holds.

[shoregirl]

Is Elliott Page really short or Jennifer Garner really tall? I really did love Juno.

Yay for Kenneth Branagh. Belfast was a lovely movie.

Yay for Sian Heder. Coda 2 for 2.

Awesome that she has a ASL interpreter with her

[Lady Calypso]

Yay! Another win for CODA!

[dmeets]

Tracee’s dress must be using an entire roll of tape 

[scarynikki12]

CODA cleaning up. I will be shocked if it doesn't win Picture.

[wallflower75]

"I'm so glad I dressed as a disco ball"--LOL!

Both. Elliott is short while Jennifer is tall and wearing heels.

[yowsah1]

Looks like THE POWER OF THE DOG is going down in flames.  I wonder if they are going to grab at least one award or if they are going to go total goose egg.

Garner is 5'8" and Page is a vertically challenged 5'1". So you're right on both counts.

Jennifer Garner is tall, but not THAT tall. But she is probably wearing heels.

I don't see Jane Campion losing for Best Director, but I could see CODA winning Best Picture.

[dmeets]

Yeah it’s looking to be CODA’s night

[Quickbeam]

Interpreter is mouthing more than typical. I wonder if someone is oral-deaf in the audience.

[Lady Calypso]

This Tick Tick Boom clip makes me sad that Andrew Garfield probably won't be winning Best Actor when he's really deserving of it. 

[DollEyes]

Another beautiful "CODA" acceptance speech. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if it won Best Picture. 

[dmeets]

Army of the Dead? GTFOH

[Browncoat]

How are these the favorite films when I haven't even heard of half of them?

It's the favorite for Director if nothing else.

[yowsah1]

These Top 5 lists are totally bogus.  The Snyder-bots were working overtime on this one.

Jane Campion should still win for Best Director, but otherwise it looks like it's heading for a 1/12 showing.

[Artsda]

Lol Army of the dead? The zombie Netflix movie?

[ShadowHunter]

Army of the Dead 😂🤣😅

[mariah23]

Snyder bots?

Twitter bots.  Isn't that where this poll was held?
