Ben • Yesterday, 9:29 pm
Darn...I was five for five before that...
Dacey • Yesterday, 9:30 pm

Is there a reason why the numbers correct aren't updating when you reload the 2015 Oscar Contest Chart?
James • Yesterday, 9:30 pm
But they are letting them go past it
James • Yesterday, 9:31 pm
mine are. but those last two categories don't count
Josh • Yesterday, 9:31 pm
At least the microphones aren't lowering to the ground, as they've done in the past.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:31 pm

Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:34 pm
Apparently that was Will Arnett in the Lego Batman suit XD
Dacey • Yesterday, 9:35 pm
Awesome!
Ben • Yesterday, 9:35 pm

ShyViolet • Yesterday, 9:36 pm
Hi Rand.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:36 pm
@James: Soon, the Oscars will be filled with Marvel actors XD

James • Yesterday, 9:36 pm

Randall • Yesterday, 9:36 pm
Yeah, I'll be in and out.
James • Yesterday, 9:37 pm

Randall • Yesterday, 9:37 pm
I was excited about being in first place after the initial award was given.
James • Yesterday, 9:37 pm
Randall • Yesterday, 9:37 pm
I am!
James • Yesterday, 9:37 pm
You're ahead of Tami though!
Ben • Yesterday, 9:38 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 9:39 pm
Okay...loo break...where's your toilet, Rand? Why am I asking you on here?
DUB • Yesterday, 9:39 pm

DUB • Yesterday, 9:40 pm
Ohhhh ok thanks!
James • Yesterday, 9:41 pm
So far the AV consensus has chosen every category correct
Ben • Yesterday, 9:43 pm
This won't make sense to anyone who hasn't seen birdman
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:43 pm
Why's he in his underwear, lol?
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:43 pm
Parody of a scene in Birdman
Zach • Yesterday, 9:43 pm
Lol
James • Yesterday, 9:44 pm
won't make sense, but still funny
Ben • Yesterday, 9:44 pm
its a Birdman gag
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:45 pm

Oooh
James • Yesterday, 9:47 pm
23 people tied for first place
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:47 pm
Darn, I did the thing again thinking Whiplash would win, but predicted Sniper.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:47 pm
*should, not would
James • Yesterday, 9:48 pm
75% of AV voters chose chose American Sniper for Snd Editing
Ben • Yesterday, 9:49 pm
The problem with sound is that no one really knows what they're voting for
James • Yesterday, 9:49 pm
Should go back to the old names
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:50 pm
I personally am not 100% sure of the difference between sound editing and sound mixing.
James • Yesterday, 9:50 pm
Sound Mixing used to just be Sound. Sound Editing used to be Sound Effects Editing
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:50 pm
Just a heads up James, I think the winners are announced on my screen about a full minute or two after you announce how many voters predicted correctly.
James • Yesterday, 9:50 pm
your tv may be ahead of me then!
Ben • Yesterday, 9:51 pm
they should really have a recording category too, as without good sound you don't get editing or mixing
Josh • Yesterday, 9:51 pm
Eager to see Leto as Joker.
James • Yesterday, 9:51 pm
87% of AV voters chose Arquette for Sup Actress
Ben • Yesterday, 9:51 pm

Oh I thought you meant you were ahead of me. You're saying you're behind me
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:52 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 9:54 pm
well that is the title!
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:54 pm
Kevin Smith: "The Joke is on my TV! My So-Called Super Villain. He looks like Buddy Christ tonight."
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:54 pm
Patricia Arquette wins!
Ben • Yesterday, 9:55 pm
Nice, but no clap from Keaton?
James • Yesterday, 9:55 pm
Best thing to do is don't look at the chat after I announce AV's prediction on each category if you are behind
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 9:56 pm
Kevin Murphy: "I think she said 'poop'."
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:56 pm
@James: Yeah, I've decided to do that myself
James • Yesterday, 9:56 pm
23 people still tied for first. Three people tied for last, two of whom are sitting next to me!
Ben • Yesterday, 9:57 pm
Oops!
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 9:57 pm
Ouch, sorry

Dacey • Yesterday, 9:59 pm
Here comes dragon's prize
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:00 pm

Dacey • Yesterday, 10:00 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 10:02 pm

Zach • Yesterday, 10:07 pm
Feast won
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:07 pm
Cool.
Josh • Yesterday, 10:07 pm
I thought it was cute, but too close to Paperman.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:07 pm
very cool, but me thinks they just saw "Disney" on the ballot
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:07 pm
Yep, I knew Feast had it in the proverbial bag.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:08 pm
@Ben: True, I felt Dam Keeper should have won.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:08 pm
Boston Terriers! XD
Ben • Yesterday, 10:08 pm
pleased for Disney though, and their amazing streak of short wins
Josh • Yesterday, 10:09 pm
Ditto.
James • Yesterday, 10:09 pm
84% of AV voters chose HTTYD2
Ben • Yesterday, 10:09 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 10:10 pm
ITS NOT A GENRE!!!
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:10 pm
Ugh.
Josh • Yesterday, 10:10 pm
I hope they all wrote in Lego Movie
Zach • Yesterday, 10:10 pm
Whoa

ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:11 pm

Zach • Yesterday, 10:11 pm

Josh • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
Wow, Big Hero 6 won!
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:11 pm

Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
Disney night tonight!
Ben • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
again...they see "Disney" on the ballot
Ben • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
very pleased to see an original win over a sequel but I think that's how it won
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
Big Hero 6 won, Violet
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
Oh wow....wow...I'm glad for Disney but sad for DWA.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:11 pm
I loved BH6, but definitely feel others were better than it
James • Yesterday, 10:12 pm
This is why DW stacks the Annies!
James • Yesterday, 10:12 pm
Josh • Yesterday, 10:12 pm
Is this the first time a studio has won for animated short and feature on the same night?
Ben • Yesterday, 10:12 pm
is that the first time Disney has "done the double"?
Ben • Yesterday, 10:12 pm
i think so josh
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:13 pm
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
James • Yesterday, 10:13 pm
Animated films make more than every best picture nominee. Can we not rush the winners off the stage?
James • Yesterday, 10:13 pm
Down to 16 people tied for first place
Ben • Yesterday, 10:14 pm
why a non animated song like Chitty to play off ANIMATION!?
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:14 pm
Wow glad for Disney but sad for DWA
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:14 pm
Wow. A lot of surprises there. Can't believe Apes didn't win...again!
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:14 pm
They really needed this win.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:15 pm
historic night for Disney, although BAF only been going since 2001 so it's not like its been decades and decades in coming
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:15 pm
Is this the first time DAS has won in the BAF category?
Ben • Yesterday, 10:15 pm
i can believe apes didn't win. It was my pick, but some of the cb was very poor.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:16 pm
@ibrmacf: Frozen won last year
Ben • Yesterday, 10:16 pm
Disney has won BAF before, but not BAF and short together
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:16 pm
@Lord, oh yeah, forgot about that
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:16 pm
@Ben: Ok, has Pixar ever done that?
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:17 pm
Can't believe Toothless lost. I loved Big Hero 6, but still....
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:17 pm
I liked BH6 a lot.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:17 pm
Not sure...think so with Presto's win
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:17 pm
But DWA is having SUCH bad luck lately.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:17 pm
Let's see if this works, me with Don Hall:
https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 4405ecc737
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:18 pm
Anyway, that's enough DWA soapboxing.
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:18 pm
Well, I'm not "sad" lol. I'm happy for Big Hero 6. I just thought Dragon 2 was a better film.
James • Yesterday, 10:18 pm
cool!
Ben • Yesterday, 10:18 pm
unless we don't agree with them
James • Yesterday, 10:18 pm
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:19 pm
"That's why all the nominations this year are white!"
Ben • Yesterday, 10:20 pm
This. Lady. Is. Making. A. Point.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:20 pm
I don't think conservative opinions would make it big in liberal Hollywood
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:20 pm
"Still, first time in more than 20 years that ALL the nominations are white in the acting categories."
Ben • Yesterday, 10:21 pm
no...that's why Clint Eastwood is not making movies anymore...
James • Yesterday, 10:21 pm
83% of AV voters chose Grand budapest for Prod Design
Ben • Yesterday, 10:21 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 10:21 pm
Amazing (real) set

ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:22 pm
Yep, Budapest is king!
James • Yesterday, 10:22 pm
Loved this movie. Wanted to choose it for Best Pic but that would've been voting with the heart not the brain
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:23 pm
Wes Anderson films are so much fun to watch. Even funnier when I'm with my mom because we're both rolling with laughter. XD
Ben • Yesterday, 10:23 pm
the only thing I don't get with budapest's academy ratio sequences is that it's not true academy ratio, it's open matte...
James • Yesterday, 10:24 pm
Just noticed no one is perfect anymore in the contest
James • Yesterday, 10:24 pm
79% of AV voters chose Birman for Cin.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:26 pm
Pretty well deserved
Josh • Yesterday, 10:26 pm
Poor Roger Deakins.

Thought GBH had this category too
Ben • Yesterday, 10:26 pm
one day, josh!
James • Yesterday, 10:27 pm
16 people tied for first place. One of them got all three animation categories right which is the first tie-breaker we use
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:27 pm
Mike Nelson: "Does it drive Wes Anderson crazy that not every sinle shot of the Oscars is exactly centered and it's not adorable?"
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:27 pm
Was there any way Birdman wasn't gonna win that?
James • Yesterday, 10:29 pm
Ive got their twitter pages open too now! My favorite so far was from one of their writers: "Please, please let John Travolta introduce Alejandro González Iñárritu tonight"
Zach • Yesterday, 10:29 pm
Haha.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:29 pm
It could have gone to deakins...Birdman is a bit gimmicky.
Josh • Yesterday, 10:29 pm
Need to get a few things done before work tomorrow. But thanks for hosting the chat again. Good night!
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:30 pm
Good night Josh!
Ben • Yesterday, 10:30 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 10:31 pm
ahh, in memorium
Ben • Yesterday, 10:31 pm
Let's see who they miss...RW for the final screen, anyone?
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:31 pm

ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:31 pm
Yeah, RW will be the most!

ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:36 pm
No Casey Kasem?
Ben • Yesterday, 10:36 pm

James • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
Jennifer Hudson is pretty good, and an oscar winning actress
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
What happened? Sorry.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
No Sid Caesar?
Ben • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
bad, bad choice
Ben • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
lyrics are all wrong
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:37 pm
Shirley and Sid was the previous year.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:38 pm
Oh ok, I forgot they died earlier on.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:38 pm
overblown and this is all about her, not those they are supposedly "honoring"
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 10:38 pm
Oh I get it now.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:38 pm
I just miss Casey Kasem. He was the 2nd hardest death for me this year.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:38 pm
But, I guess he wasn't really "movie"-famous
Ben • Yesterday, 10:39 pm
Go away!
Ben • Yesterday, 10:39 pm
Just let it go Jen.
James • Yesterday, 10:39 pm
Let go, Ben

81% of AV voters chose Boyhood for Film Editing
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:44 pm
Wow. That's a shock.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:44 pm
Figured that was Boyhood's to lose.
James • Yesterday, 10:44 pm
woohoo I got that one. Almost went with Boyhood.
Ben • Yesterday, 10:44 pm
As with many this year, categories fell to two front runners. It was always gonna be whiplash or boyhood
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 10:45 pm
I thought it was Birdman or Boyhood.
James • Yesterday, 10:45 pm
We went from 16 in first place to one: Unbreakable Samurai leads!
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:45 pm
Yeah, I thought Boyhood has this too!
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:46 pm
How did Boyhood not win? I mean you literally have twelve years of footage to edit through.
James • Yesterday, 10:46 pm
More marvel
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:47 pm
@Dacey: My thoughts exactly!
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:47 pm
Is something wrong with Don Cheadle?
James • Yesterday, 10:48 pm
Ben • Yesterday, 10:48 pm
Well, no, you don't. They didn't film for twelve years.
James • Yesterday, 10:48 pm
Only 10 people 81 got animated feature right on our animation website!
James • Yesterday, 10:48 pm
10 out of 81
Ben • Yesterday, 10:48 pm
They filemed for a week each year. That's twelve weeks of footage, the same as any other three month shoot,
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:49 pm
10/81? Wow!
Ben • Yesterday, 10:49 pm
Wasn't that Terence Howard?
James • Yesterday, 10:49 pm
(Iron man joke)
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:49 pm
Guess my joke didn't land
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:50 pm
Thanks, James!

i wasn't sure if that was the joke...sorry
James • Yesterday, 10:50 pm
74% Picked CitizenFour for Doc
Ben • Yesterday, 10:50 pm
but they didn't have twelve years of footage to cut, only twelve weeks, like any other movie
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:50 pm
Anyone see the excellent new Peanuts Movie poster they just put out?
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:51 pm
Spoofs Birdman
Ben • Yesterday, 10:51 pm
got this, only as it was the only one that got a lot of publicity and was showing on TV here last week
James • Yesterday, 10:51 pm
I got it with a random guess!
James • Yesterday, 10:52 pm
Several animation poster spoofs out there
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:52 pm
Which one won?
James • Yesterday, 10:52 pm
CitizenFour
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 10:53 pm
"for some treason", lol
Ben • Yesterday, 10:53 pm
feel bad for Tami!
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:53 pm
My mom got very mad at that joke.
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:53 pm
My mom got very mad at that joke.
James • Yesterday, 10:54 pm
We're trying not to make fun of Tami here...
Ben • Yesterday, 10:54 pm
Delivered VERY well tho!
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:54 pm
Tell that to my mom
"Boo to you!" she yells with genuine disgust that means I can't even dare get an opposite view in
James • Yesterday, 10:55 pm
Only three people correctly predicted all three animation categories in the contest
Dacey • Yesterday, 10:55 pm
This may not work in all areas, but regarding Boyhood's editing...

Wil Wheaton: "Um. Keep your hands to yourself, John Travolta. #creepyunclejohn"
Ben • Yesterday, 11:06 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 11:07 pm

Dacey • Yesterday, 11:08 pm
LOL
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:08 pm
Pure Imagination
Dacey • Yesterday, 11:09 pm
Glory was a lock, but I loved the Idina/John thing a LOT, so my evening is made
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:09 pm
@Ben: Yeah, I picked LEGO also for a pity vote
James • Yesterday, 11:09 pm
Glory was a lock but Awesome will right or wrong outlast it in pop culture
James • Yesterday, 11:10 pm
Unbreakable Samurai leads with 14 out of 15 correct
Dacey • Yesterday, 11:11 pm
We don't know for sure that's true. Um...what beat Everything Is Awesome again?
Dacey • Yesterday, 11:11 pm
James • Yesterday, 11:11 pm
Still almost anyone's game with 7 categories left and 49 people within 3
James • Yesterday, 11:11 pm
James • Yesterday, 11:13 pm

James • Yesterday, 11:13 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 11:14 pm
Just got back from a loo break to find scar-Jo looking amazing
Ben • Yesterday, 11:15 pm
why all this for one film when other things have been getting short attentiom
Ben • Yesterday, 11:15 pm
decent robin Williams tribute, anyone?
James • Yesterday, 11:15 pm
...
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:15 pm
Why?
Ben • Yesterday, 11:15 pm
So a clip tribute and a song!?
James • Yesterday, 11:16 pm

ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:16 pm
Yeah for TSOM
Ben • Yesterday, 11:16 pm
"thousund"?
James • Yesterday, 11:16 pm
Did we lose everyone in the chat all of a sudden?
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:16 pm
No I'm still here.
James • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
OK coming back now. All the names disappeared on me
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
I think we're all in shock over this bit. What exactly, I'm not sure.
Ben • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
no, but the Oscars gained a younger demographic share!
Zach • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
Haha
Ben • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
Awful
Ben • Yesterday, 11:17 pm
its a joke, no?
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:18 pm
Shock that they chose Lady Gaga or that Lady Gaga isn't that bad.
Ben • Yesterday, 11:18 pm
shes not got a showtune voice
James • Yesterday, 11:18 pm
Michael J Nelson @michaeljnelson:
This tribute to the Sound of Music is making me nostalgic for the first time I thought The Sound of Music sucked.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:18 pm
Though the tat on her arm is so not right.
Ben • Yesterday, 11:18 pm
listen to the cover up reverb!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:19 pm
Give her props for being barmy though
Ben • Yesterday, 11:20 pm
crazy
James • Yesterday, 11:20 pm
Not great, but not as bad as anyone would've expected upon hearing she was going to do this
Ben • Yesterday, 11:20 pm
mary POPPINS!
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:20 pm
Now there's the real deal XD
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:21 pm
JULIE ANDREWS!
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:21 pm
Bill Corbett: "Come on Julie Andrews: to make this really work, you come out in a meat dress."
Ben • Yesterday, 11:22 pm
best part of the show
Ben • Yesterday, 11:22 pm
she even says Budapest properly
Ben • Yesterday, 11:23 pm

Ben • Yesterday, 11:23 pm
Nice
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:23 pm
Oooo, for Budapest
James • Yesterday, 11:23 pm
Nice!
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
GBH!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
with two scores he could have won or he could have seen a split vote go to zommer
James • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
I would have also accepted Interstellar
James • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
Ben • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
Nah
Ben • Yesterday, 11:24 pm
oh, you...!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:25 pm
budapest leads at this point, I think
James • Yesterday, 11:26 pm
Valaquenta and Unbreakable Samurai now tied for the lead
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:27 pm
Inside Out commercial, yay
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:27 pm
Cool wonder if it will win next year?
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:27 pm
Oh sorry meant
again!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:27 pm
And James is our staff leader!
James • Yesterday, 11:28 pm
woohoo. and I missed that last one.
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:28 pm
The commercial was about 15-30 seconds long and already it was leagues better than the trailer for Home.
James • Yesterday, 11:28 pm
true dat
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:29 pm
I bet. Home looks awful.
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:29 pm
Sorry got disconnected again
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:29 pm
That happened to me a few times too.
Ben • Yesterday, 11:29 pm
Home is undoubtedly another write off
Ben • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
ooh, he's good at these short pieces to camera
James • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
56% choose Grand budapest
Ben • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
wow
Ben • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
did
Ben • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
not
Ben • Yesterday, 11:30 pm
see
Ben • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
that
Ben • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
coming
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
Awesome, I chose Birdman
!
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
Same here
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
Did not see that coming, that is.
James • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
33% of AV voters actually chose Birdman
ShyViolet • Yesterday, 11:31 pm
Chose Boyhood...oh well.
James • Yesterday, 11:32 pm
66% of AV voters chose The Imitation Game fro Adapted Screenplay
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:32 pm
Steve Martin: "Congratulations to Lady Gaga and Julie Andrews for a most emotional moment on this year's Oscars. Oops, forgot to be satirical."
Ben • Yesterday, 11:32 pm
I don't think any pundits picked Birdman as a serious screenplay winner
James • Yesterday, 11:32 pm
Five people tied for our lead now
James • Yesterday, 11:32 pm
including 2006 winner dgaspar
Ben • Yesterday, 11:33 pm
Birdman pretty much a lock for picture now
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:33 pm
Bill Corbett: "Oh god Eddie's still wearing the jacket from the ****** movie I wrote."
Ben • Yesterday, 11:33 pm
lol
Ben • Yesterday, 11:34 pm
i wonder if sniper could take this for a token nod
Ben • Yesterday, 11:35 pm
mmmmmmmm
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:35 pm
Darn, picked Sniper
Ben • Yesterday, 11:36 pm
not sure its deserved...the film was good but loghtweight
Ben • Yesterday, 11:36 pm
lightweight
Ben • Yesterday, 11:37 pm
Heading into the final stretches
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:37 pm
My goal is just to beat my score from last year, but I doubt I will, lol
James • Yesterday, 11:40 pm
Five tied for the lead. My wife and daughter tied for last.
James • Yesterday, 11:40 pm
Ben • Yesterday, 11:40 pm
Well I wasn't going to mention that...
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:40 pm
Sorry for them, but at least it's a good family event
!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:41 pm
Director...
Ben • Yesterday, 11:41 pm
this is Birdman or boyhood's to take
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:41 pm
Once Upon a Time commercial... those costumes don't work for me...
James • Yesterday, 11:42 pm
AV voters picked Alejandro G. Inarritu, Birdman for Director with 50%
Ben • Yesterday, 11:42 pm
i thought birdman would take picture and give director to boyhood as consolation but I'm about to be wrong
Ben • Yesterday, 11:42 pm
dammit
Ben • Yesterday, 11:43 pm
birdman all the way now then...Keaton and picture
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:43 pm
@Ben, I thought Boyhood would win this too
Ben • Yesterday, 11:43 pm
did he just...
James • Yesterday, 11:45 pm
Three categories left!
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:46 pm
3 to go!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:46 pm
Almost there
Ben • Yesterday, 11:46 pm
almost there
Ben • Yesterday, 11:46 pm
ah, it just imPACTed on the surface
Ben • Yesterday, 11:48 pm
lady tremaine!
James • Yesterday, 11:48 pm
61% of AV voters chose Eddie Redmayne, The Theory of Everything for Best Actor
Ben • Yesterday, 11:48 pm
Ben • Yesterday, 11:49 pm
its Redmayne or keatom...I think Redmayne but think Keaton might get because he's american, been around and feels like the right time
Ben • Yesterday, 11:50 pm
not the best Keaton clip to pick
Ben • Yesterday, 11:50 pm
very tight race
Ben • Yesterday, 11:51 pm
of course
Ben • Yesterday, 11:51 pm
shame
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:51 pm
REDMAYNE
Ben • Yesterday, 11:51 pm
good for him, very good for him, but a shame for Keaton not to be recognised T this time
James • Yesterday, 11:51 pm
wow
Ben • Yesterday, 11:52 pm
genuinely good performance, then, to beat out keaton
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:52 pm
Ok, I can't beat last year's score. Here's hope to tying it, lol.
James • Yesterday, 11:52 pm
85% of AV voters chose Julianne Moore, Still Alice for Best Actress
Ben • Yesterday, 11:53 pm
but still think Birdman has picture over theory and boyhood
James • Yesterday, 11:53 pm
Not sure Keaton will get another shot
James • Yesterday, 11:53 pm
treats why I assumed he'd get it tonight
James • Yesterday, 11:53 pm
thats
Ben • Yesterday, 11:53 pm
moore is pretty much a lock in for this
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:54 pm
Eye of the Tiger for Matt, eh? XD
James • Yesterday, 11:54 pm
Blanchett got When She Love Me from TS2
James • Yesterday, 11:54 pm
i think...
James • Yesterday, 11:54 pm
Ben • Yesterday, 11:54 pm
yes
Lord Akiyama • Yesterday, 11:55 pm
Wil Wheaton: "We need two more 'Alright's or we can't get off, Matthew McConaughey. Don't leave me hanging, bruh."
Ben • Yesterday, 11:57 pm
It's been a pretty good, even spread Oscars this yeat
Ben • Yesterday, 11:57 pm
Year...mostly good choices and the right decisions
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:57 pm
Well there goes my chance of tying last year's score
James • Yesterday, 11:58 pm
Sorry ibrmacf!
James • Yesterday, 11:59 pm
Not much NPH during the last half of this thing though
ibrmacf • Yesterday, 11:59 pm
@James: Thanks. I gotta try better next year!
Ben • Yesterday, 11:59 pm
Yay! Tami is t las
Ben • Yesterday, 11:59 pm
should be "Tami isn't last!"
ShyViolet • Today, 12:00 am
Well it was really nice speaking with you guys. Have a good night.
Ben • Today, 12:00 am
Nay...the other Whitsons are not so lucky...
James • Today, 12:00 am
Ben • Today, 12:00 am
are they really doing this? Nah...?
Ben • Today, 12:02 am
okay, it's a joke
Ben • Today, 12:03 am
was worried that was going to be a bit of showboating for a moment but he got some good nods in there
James • Today, 12:03 am
49% of AV voters chose Birdman for Best Picture
Ben • Today, 12:03 am
hey! It's Happy Sean!
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:03 am
Dreamworks: "Actually NPH, we kept the name because it sounded better than How to Train More Dragons
"
ibrmacf • Today, 12:05 am
Ah, Birdman...
Ben • Today, 12:06 am
not sure it's a deserved winner, but,,,
James • Today, 12:07 am
Gotta say I wish the expansion past five nominees resulted in more popular films being nominated. I saw over 60 films in theatres last year... and two were nominated for Best Picture. Might as well go back to five
ibrmacf • Today, 12:07 am
@Lord: LOL!
James • Today, 12:08 am
dgaspar and Unbreakable Samurai are our winners! dgaspar will win the prize after the tiebreakers. He previously won in 2006.
Ben • Today, 12:08 am
What might you have given the best pic to, then, James?
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:08 am
Wil Wheaton: "SAY I'M BATMAN, MICHAEL! SAY I'M BATMAN, GODDAMMIT!"
James • Today, 12:09 am
Not saying it didn't deserve it but don't see the point of so many nominees if its more of the same
ibrmacf • Today, 12:09 am
Ok it was great fun chatting with y'all through this: the first time I watched the Oscars! Heading to bed now! Bye!
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:10 am
Night!
James • Today, 12:10 am
Randall beat Tami by one!
Zach • Today, 12:10 am
I'll be getting off as well. It's been fun. G' night!
Ben • Today, 12:10 am
well, 5am here...gonna make a move
James • Today, 12:10 am
Thanks guys! Wish we had more here but it was lots of fun with you all!
Ben • Today, 12:10 am
ha! One point!
Ben • Today, 12:11 am
No real great classic moments tonight I dint think?
James • Today, 12:12 am
some good jokes and the opening number was really good
Dacey • Today, 12:12 am
Sorry I wasn't here for long. But I had fun when I did. Also, I'm glad Birdman won, but can't believe Keaton didn't.
Ben • Today, 12:12 am
yes, and I liked Julie Andrews, but no real great great classic moments
Ben • Today, 12:13 am
keaton was a cert, I felt
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:13 am
Agreed
James • Today, 12:13 am
Michael J Nelson @michaeljnelson :
I assume the stars are given dispensation to skip church on Oscar day? They're so holy and pious it would be redundant.
Ben • Today, 12:13 am
Being American, and his time, I thought he was a lock even though Redmayne was picking everything else up
Ben • Today, 12:14 am
so it can only attest that Redmayne is then very very good in his film
James • Today, 12:14 am
Thought Keaton was a lock since he was playing an actor and the actors are the largest guild
Ben • Today, 12:14 am
he did look a bit uncomfortable at the end there
James • Today, 12:14 am
Hey Randall you beat Tami!
Ben • Today, 12:15 am
yes, James...but then as actors they'd be seeing that Redmayne was getting lost in the character while Keaton's role was more "fun".
Ben • Today, 12:16 am
plus he wasn't always great all the way through
James • Today, 12:16 am
I thought most would think of Redmayne as doing an "impression". Not that I thought so
Ben • Today, 12:16 am
i need to see theory now, after putting it off after not being too impressed with imitation game
James • Today, 12:17 am
Hey guys, I need to go. Have to double check the contest, post the results, contact the winner, take down the banner ads, etc...
James • Today, 12:17 am
Had fun as usual!
James • Today, 12:17 am
Glad you could make it Ben, even if you didn't do so from Canada
James • Today, 12:18 am
Thanks for the Twitter updates Lord Aki
Ben • Today, 12:18 am
what are you talking about? I gotta get home again now!
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:18 am
No prob XD
Ben • Today, 12:18 am
Rand...call me a cab!
James • Today, 12:18 am
Might as well just pop down here to the states for a day or two then!
Ben • Today, 12:19 am
Thats a long cab journey!
James • Today, 12:19 am
Thanks again all. See you on the forums
Ben • Today, 12:20 am
Yep...good night...er...good morning!
Ben • Today, 12:20 am
Lord Akiyama • Today, 12:20 am
Night, y'all!
