"The Phone Call" wins because it was the only one the old Oscar voters could pronounce.

It feels like a lot of the audience is missing the references. A bad audience can kill the best comedy (not that this is great comedy).

It has nothing to do with your opinion. You want attention for being "that guy."

Well congrats, that guy.

It wasn't a bad joke, I just don't think most people understood it.

It would be a good idea to make sure that everyone who is nominated is seated in the first 5-10 rows. Putting people in the back of the theater is a time waster.

Agree, don't know if it's the actual joke or the delivery but it's terrible. And I thought he would be perfect as a host.

What is "that guy" exactly? God forbid someone doesn't enjoy a movie made for the uneducated.

How is neither this thread nor the anchored Oscars thread updating the OP with the winners? Or has the show not started yet? If it has started and the winners are not being updated, massive massive fail. What kind of shitshow are we running here? I don't have TV, so I was going to check in here for the winners.



I don't think this thread has ever had a running update. It's basically an IM thread.

These two are doing great with the pronunciations. The audio seems off though. Pre-recorded?

His jokes aren't that bad, but the audience doesn't seem to be getting them. Ellen did a better job of engaging the audience I think.

Just saw John Travolta. His hairline is looking much better than this . . .



Guess he has been to Bosley.

I just don't understand how "Theory of Everything" is advertised as a love story.


it was based on the book written by the wife.
i'm sure she is ok w/ her freedom.
he might have started w/ the nurse to get some strange. he might have see that his wife was in love w/ the friend.

Like many of you, I was looking forward to NPH hosting the Academy Awards.

But this is seriously such a dead, self-centered audience. Apparently, if you don't take selfies with them and stroke their egos constantly, they don't know how to respond.
