Mechanical Type writer machines as a background for the writer’s Oscars? How quaint.
Am I the only one to notice the following?
John Ridley, who originally wrote Three Kings, just won the Oscar. He sued David O. Russell(the “writer” and director of the movie) who claimed sole credit for the Three Kings script.
Following this, who is nominated for Orininal screenplay?
David O. Russel
But wait! There’s more!
Who won original screenplay?
Spike Jonze…who starred(yes, acted in)…Three Kings.
And Robert Lopez just won the EGOT
Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony.
Wow!
Fun fact: Evans already had the beard during one of his clean-cut Captain America scenes in The Avengers, and so got filmed resting his obscured jaw with his hand.
Yes, it’s that scene.
Wow. Sidney Poitier looks good for 87.
Sidney Poitier is the oldest living Best Actor. He’s looking pretty frail.
ETA: Well, as Pai325 notes, he’s 87. But I am a little worried.
He sounds like he’s auditioning for next year’s “In Memoriam” reel, though.
wow!
The let it go guy?
Yes.
I bet you are.
But that’s a really awesome observation
Funny moment, though.
“Do I get this one?”
“…YES.”
And Avenue Q composer.
I like to think that it’s a good omen for Disney’s new era:
The Little Mermaid (which started the Disney renaissance): music by a composer who was previously best known for a quirky musical involving puppetry.
Frozen: music by a composer who was previously best known for a quirky musical involving puppetry.
The “Wise Guys” of Warners? Was he calling them mobsters?
I thought he was saying “White Guys”.
I’m assuming the GOT was for songwriting?
What was his emmy in?
Scrubs. The musical, I think?
And he has won all 4 in 10 years.
It sure looked like it…
I am so thrilled for Spike and Alfonso. Nice shoutout to Alejandro González Iñárritu and Guillermo del Toro.
