86th Academy Awards viewing thread

Helium, please!

EDIT…YAAAAY!!!

Aw, the lady just died too. The oldest living Holocaust survivor.

I want to see The Lady in Number Six. NPR ran an interview with her last week on the occasion of her death. Amazing woman.

At this rate, I doubt Ellen is going to be asked back for a third hosting gig.

20 feet!!!

I heard a lot of cheering for The Square, so it must have been close.

Sorry, but I HAD to hit the mute button. I would have not wanted to be the sound engineer in that truck.

You go, girl! Those are some pipes!

Aw, nice standing O for Darlene Love.

Nice job, Kevin Spacey! Way to follow up Darlene Love with a bit of Francis Underwood!

I gotta say they must have pumped a shit-ton of nitrous in that place because everyone is more loosey-goosey than I have seen at an Oscars in years

Angela Lansbury looks great for 88!

Somebody jumped the gun at Reuters:

Wow, The Great Beauty, one I actually saw. Worth seeing for the Rome scenery if nothing else. It’s like a love letter to Rome.

So who keeps the Oscar that represents the entire country?

The president? The local library?

It would be nice if whoever wrote the presenter’s blurbs for best picture wrote them the way people actually speak.

Her, my favorite of the nominees. Joaquin should have been nominated. Jonze too. Ah well. I’m glad it’s represented anyway.

So was Amy Adams actually texting while Tyler Perry was introducing the clip from Her? Because it sure looked like she was.

gaffa- what’s wrong with ellen? better than having billy crystal for the 800th time.

Just because I said I didn’t want something bad doesn’t mean I want something worse.
