Rats! Came to fill my ballot out today and found the deadline was last night. :( Wanted to defend my title from last year! Guess that won't happen. Good luck to all.

Thanks to everyone who joined the chat this year! Here's the transcript:
James • 2/24/2019, 7:41 pm
Looks like half of you guys didn't enter the contest!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 7:41 pm
:)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:42 pm
I'm in the contest :D !


James • 2/24/2019, 7:42 pm
Yep, you, me, and Ben!


Daniel • 2/24/2019, 7:43 pm
Not Eric? Gasp! ;)


James • 2/24/2019, 7:43 pm
Nor you?!


James • 2/24/2019, 7:43 pm
:)

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:43 pm
I got too depressed to enter: No matter who we want, it's going to Roma because of the new "Second place wins" voting glitch.


Daniel • 2/24/2019, 7:44 pm
With my spotty visits its no shock for me. :P

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:45 pm
anyone seen roma?


James • 2/24/2019, 7:46 pm
What glitch is that


Daniel • 2/24/2019, 7:46 pm
Silence says it all. ;)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:46 pm
Black Panther is the only of the 9 Best Picture nominations that I've seen, lol!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:46 pm
Oscar votes list 5 favorites, and #1 gets more votes than #2 pick--

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:47 pm
And if no one agrees on #1, but EVERYONE agrees on #2, guess who gets more votes...And wins.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 7:47 pm
Hello, Bees. XD

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:47 pm
That's probably how Moonlight beat La La Land.

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:48 pm
hey dan 2! ;)


James • 2/24/2019, 7:48 pm
so not an actual glitch, you're just talking about preferential voting?

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:49 pm
Preferential voting, but it's a problem.


James • 2/24/2019, 7:50 pm
10 minutes!

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:51 pm
yippie

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:51 pm
ready for some queen.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:51 pm
Yes, Gaga should be appearing tonight. ;)


Daniel • 2/24/2019, 7:52 pm
:lol:


James • 2/24/2019, 7:52 pm
They should have Rob Lowe come out at the beginning like 30 years ago when he danced with Snow White (the last time there was no host}, look around, shake his head no, then walk off stage


Dacey • 2/24/2019, 7:52 pm
Hey James. We have someone wanting to register to enter the chat. They are called "Lizzie." They say the CAPTCHA isn't working. Is there anything I can do?


Daniel • 2/24/2019, 7:52 pm
That could've worked.


James • 2/24/2019, 7:53 pm
I disabled it about 30 minutes ago.


James • 2/24/2019, 7:53 pm
Should work now


Dacey • 2/24/2019, 7:54 pm
Yeah. Just heard back from the member in question literally right after I posted her and she says she's in. Thanks.

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:55 pm
5 minutes.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 7:55 pm
https://game.oscar.go.com has its own game running tonight on ABC's site, for those not in the contest.


James • 2/24/2019, 7:56 pm
Why would anyone not have entered our game?


James • 2/24/2019, 7:56 pm
:)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:57 pm
Can someone post a link to the scoreboard so we can keep track please?


James • 2/24/2019, 7:57 pm
http://animatedviews.com/oscars/2019/results.php


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:58 pm
I wonder if they'll have time to include Stanley Donen in the 'In Memoriam' section since his death was only announced yesterday?


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:58 pm
Thanks, James!


James • 2/24/2019, 7:58 pm
Here's a game for tonight's show: Count how many minutes of things that could have been cut to make room for the four categories they weren't originally going to show.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 7:58 pm
Probably in some text that crawls afterward.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
Helloo!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
Well, I made it, Oscars and all!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
Hello Ben!


James • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
New chat. who dis?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
Hello!!!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
Bidet, Ben! XD

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 7:59 pm
lol


James • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
Hola!
User avatar
Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
um, who are you?

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
hello lizzie.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
hew we go


James • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
here


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
Guess they're gonna rock us XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:00 pm
Who me?


James • 2/24/2019, 8:01 pm
That was an abrupt ending

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:01 pm
FTR the ABC tablet app is working, synching and rocking.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:02 pm
ending!? Just started here

Otis8 • 2/24/2019, 8:02 pm
FTR?

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:03 pm
(Actually, "Rock You" and "Champions" were supposed to be sung together, since one is about football hooligans, and the other is about loyal Arsenal fans.)


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:03 pm
Howdy! Hey, Ben is here.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:03 pm
He's no Freddie


James • 2/24/2019, 8:03 pm
The gang's all here!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:04 pm
Weee XD


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:04 pm
So until about half an hour ago we weren’t going to make it

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:05 pm
And Ben's sister :)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:05 pm
Hello everyone who've just arrived!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:05 pm
Oh, wait, "Not available in area" -Back over to the delay site


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:05 pm
then my sister (that’s her above) suggested we try a free trial of a system that lets you stream the movie channel that carries the Oscars here in the uk


James • 2/24/2019, 8:06 pm
Nice to have you here Lizlak. Feel free to start giving up embarrassing Ben stories whenever you want!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:06 pm
Good job, Lizzie!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:06 pm
i think you know them all james


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:06 pm
Starting off with some SNL girls XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:06 pm
Challenge accepted


James • 2/24/2019, 8:07 pm
First political joke 7 minutes in.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:07 pm
i Tried the abc streams but the vpn I used had a data limit,which obviously jammed up about five minutes in!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:07 pm
This is my favourite part of the night. I am tied for first.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:08 pm
:)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:08 pm
we just got the Mexico joke, so I guess we're about a minute behind you,


James • 2/24/2019, 8:08 pm
These jokes aren't that great...


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:08 pm
pretty flat so far


James • 2/24/2019, 8:09 pm
Best Supporting Actress: 83% in our contest chose Regina King


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:09 pm
so, literally no intro?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:09 pm
No one has actually said "welcome" to the academy awards


James • 2/24/2019, 8:10 pm
Could've used a little less intro actually!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:10 pm
this would have been the first time in over 30 years that I didn’t watch if I hadn’t seen it tonight. Thanks Lizzie!!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:11 pm
Actually pretty cool...for the first time ever I’m tucked up in bed and watching on two iPads...one with the show, and one with our chat!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:11 pm
Which iPad app has the show?


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:12 pm
Still in first! I am basking.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:12 pm
BTW, on the results page you can mouse over the grid to see what every person in the contest chose in every category!


James • 2/24/2019, 8:12 pm
http://animatedviews.com/oscars/2019/results.php


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:13 pm
Regina takes it. I’m one for one so far! ;)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:13 pm
1 for 1 too, whoo!


James • 2/24/2019, 8:13 pm
ummmmmmm.......


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:13 pm
the fact they have no host should cut down on lame bits of business and make room for the other awards


James • 2/24/2019, 8:13 pm
Looks like you picked Amy Adams, Ben


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
Riley and Huey taking home an Oscar :)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
yeah...I was spoofing...


James • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
That;s an odd couple

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
One less for your favourite Ben

James • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
Gotcha, a bit late!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
my pick with Regina, but something said Amy right at the end.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
You can tell an age line by who says "No stupid dance numbers!" and who says "No pizza and tourists in the theater!"


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:14 pm
I am ahead of Ben! Woo hoo!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
Basking. Right here.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
Dont get used to it, Mr C.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
Best Documentary : 62% in our contest said Free Solo

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
Helen's a lucky girl

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
RBG


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:15 pm
Does this all feel a bit rudimentary and perfunctory?


James • 2/24/2019, 8:16 pm
True, Eric!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:16 pm
as in, Free Solo, the dirctor's cut?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:16 pm
;)

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:16 pm
RBG I reckon


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:16 pm
yes, although I think I picked solo


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:17 pm
my birthday!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:17 pm
its Edna mode!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:17 pm
ahh, solo it is


James • 2/24/2019, 8:17 pm
You can see your picks here by mousing over the categories: http://animatedviews.com/oscars/2019/results.php

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:17 pm
Hmm


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:18 pm
Guess there's a bit of a delay to mute that cuss drop XD


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:18 pm
Darn, I picked RBG. I'm still upset that Won't You Be My Neighbor wasn't nominated!


James • 2/24/2019, 8:18 pm
Inside jokes. Awkward silences. Should have planned this speech!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:18 pm
everyone pocked RBG, but I went with the bunch that voters don’t actuakly watch the films and went with the title that had solo in it. Seriously.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:18 pm
And so much for first place.....


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:19 pm
Neighbor should have gotten a nod.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:20 pm
why didn’t that get included again? As well as They Shall Not Grow Old. Outstanding,


James • 2/24/2019, 8:20 pm
I think everyone in the room that is playing is tied!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:20 pm
Neighbor is the stuff of which cuddly populist winners are MADE.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:20 pm
Rand is out front, though.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:21 pm
They Shall Not should have been nominated. That was outstanding!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:22 pm
What i said. ;)


James • 2/24/2019, 8:22 pm
Neighbor was just snubbed, as most popular docs seem to be


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:22 pm
Well that was an odd Google commercial


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:23 pm
make up coming up, unless they’re presenting it right now ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:23 pm
i think Christian Bale will get it for playing Chevy Chase.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:24 pm
What the heck? Tom Morello?


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:24 pm
Chevy Chase, lol!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:24 pm
Chevy Chase! :-DVice I reckon although they did a good job with Liz I


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:24 pm
Digging deep into that presenter barrel, right?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:25 pm
you will not see anyone by Chevy now.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:25 pm
Who's this guy?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:25 pm
*but*


James • 2/24/2019, 8:25 pm
Makeup and Hair: 81% of those in our contest chose Vice

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:26 pm
Makeup is always Fantasy, Historical and Blood, and if there's no Fantasy, the Historical wins.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:26 pm
Chevy!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:27 pm
Guess I should have gone with the obvious choice.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:27 pm
Vice it is!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:27 pm
cut to commercial!
User avatar
Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:28 pm
Oh man, that's harsh

James • 2/24/2019, 8:28 pm
Oh my


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:28 pm
Off the stage!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:28 pm
Poor them!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
No way! They cut them off!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
What are we looking at here?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
time to go! You’re not helping the argument for showing your category!


James • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
Costume Design: 60% of those in our contest chose The Favourite


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
they did ramble though, not a good acceptance.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
Looks like the speeches will be the Victim next year...


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:29 pm
Yep.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:30 pm
Yep, was thinking that too Ben! Should've stepped up your game knowing you were saved from the chopping block


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:30 pm
fingers crossed for Sandy.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:30 pm
Panther!!!!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:31 pm
shocker!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:31 pm
Darn, knew it was Panther, but chickened out and went for Favorite


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:31 pm
Black Panther, huh?


James • 2/24/2019, 8:31 pm
Wonder if this is a sign of things to come for Marvel...


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:32 pm
Weird lady.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:32 pm
She funny

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:33 pm
("First" black superhero...Those are the folks voting for Picture.)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:33 pm
awe, good speech

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:34 pm
We've just had adverts!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:34 pm
Agreed, Ben. Pretty good speech.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:34 pm
it kind of does lose the "glue" in not having a host


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:34 pm
?? Lizzie?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:35 pm
oh, I see what you mean


James • 2/24/2019, 8:36 pm
I like the speed they're going at but I worry that they're just getting these out of the way so they can have longer segments we won't care about


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:37 pm
Jennifer "screechy" Hudson on the way


James • 2/24/2019, 8:37 pm
8 people still perfect in the contest!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:38 pm
Sorry was booted from chat for some reason


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:38 pm
Not me!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:38 pm
th speed does feel like one after the other though...there isn’t really a feeling of it being a prestigious event


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:38 pm
These two make a sharp looking couple.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:38 pm
Production Design: 53% in the contest say The Favourite


James • 2/24/2019, 8:39 pm
nor I, Randall!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:39 pm
Wow!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:39 pm
Another for Panther!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:40 pm
Oh


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 8:40 pm
Black Panther again?


James • 2/24/2019, 8:40 pm
Why not let him go first why you look for your speech!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:40 pm
Did you see Adam driver's face? He was like, What tha....

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:41 pm
Sorry but think The Favourite should have got it


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:41 pm
Annouting


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:42 pm
whay!? Annoying. Over the top. Go away.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:42 pm
Music please


James • 2/24/2019, 8:42 pm
Hate when there are two of them in a "minor" category and one dominates the speech


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:43 pm
Poor guy barely got a word.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:43 pm
she is not making a Best Actress speech here (except in her head!j

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:43 pm
Yeah, don't worry love. I didn't want to say anything
User avatar
James • 2/24/2019, 8:44 pm
Cinematography: 81% in our contest chose Roma

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:44 pm
The black females think it's "their" night to say anything, and so do the show producers.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:44 pm
Black Panther again!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:45 pm
And so it is Roma.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:45 pm
:)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:45 pm
fist black and white since Schindler's Lift


James • 2/24/2019, 8:46 pm
Randall, Tami wants me to let you know she's in 5th place!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:46 pm
Netflix won an Oscar!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:46 pm
Schindler's Lift was an elevating film experience. ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:47 pm
I’m glad someone got that. ;)


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:47 pm
So am I! Counting from the bottom....


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:48 pm
Good job, Tam!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:48 pm
Time for a tea break...

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:48 pm
"No, no...It's NOT Ruth Bader Ginsberg!" (Oh, wait, that was "Attorney General Janet Reno".)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:48 pm
and here comes the screeching


James • 2/24/2019, 8:49 pm
Thought I'd let her get that dig in in case she slips up - she might not get the chance again! ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:49 pm
couldn't they have had her sing this in the commercials?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:50 pm
Well that's not gonna win


James • 2/24/2019, 8:50 pm
Four people still perfect: D82, enelra18, GeorgeMonkey, StevenB606


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:50 pm
bette's coming ul


James • 2/24/2019, 8:50 pm
Ha!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:50 pm
five, James. Five people are perfect.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:51 pm
meant perfectly correct


James • 2/24/2019, 8:51 pm
;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:51 pm
Its just that one didn’t pick all the right winners...! ;)

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:53 pm
These odd Google ads are cute. Smug, but cute.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 8:53 pm
Serena?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:53 pm
At least JenHud was short


James • 2/24/2019, 8:53 pm
Why is Serena Williams introducing A Star is Born?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:54 pm
Why?!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:54 pm
Because she’s Gaga on a tennis pitch?

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 8:54 pm
Because...they wanted to make Gaga's shoulders look smaller by comparison?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:55 pm
After Tom Morello, Serena isn't all that odd or surprising to me, actually.


James • 2/24/2019, 8:55 pm
Sound Editing: 34% in our contest chose First Man


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:56 pm
is it Panther again?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:56 pm
BoRap I think


Dan • 2/24/2019, 8:56 pm
Queen gets one


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:57 pm

Sound Mixing: 81% in the contest chose Bohemian Rhapsody

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:58 pm
Angie Watts is at the Oscars!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:58 pm
i didne tell you...if we can’t get someone for episode five, it could be a certain Queen member's wife...!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:59 pm
Just reminded seeing her there.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 8:59 pm
Ben - I'll HAVE to come and make the tea that day


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:00 pm
hahah...lol


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:00 pm
Bohemian Rhapsody for both


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:00 pm
i think that could be pretty cool.


James • 2/24/2019, 9:00 pm
Yikes. Tami is up to 3rd place with 7 out of 8 right, missing only Documentary.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:01 pm
YIKES!!!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:01 pm
She won't let me or Randall live this down...

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:01 pm
"Episode five"??

Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:01 pm
nothing you need to bother yourself with, Eric. ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:02 pm
where am I at, James? Still second? ;)


James • 2/24/2019, 9:03 pm
:) not bad, at 19th


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:04 pm
2am here, and still surprisingly chipper! Having the chat helps get through these commercial gaps!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:04 pm
Whatever happened to Queen Latifah?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:05 pm
She was hosting a talk show, last I checked.


James • 2/24/2019, 9:05 pm
Foreign Film: 91% in the contest chose Roma


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:05 pm
ah, we don’t get that here then.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:05 pm
ah, we don’t get that here then.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:06 pm
Roma has to be a shoo-in.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:06 pm
Will it "substitute" the Best Picture votes?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:06 pm
Cant think whats gonna win this...


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:07 pm
Unless they think Picyure is a lock and share the love


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:07 pm
Even I got that one.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:07 pm
Shocker


James • 2/24/2019, 9:07 pm
YIKES. Tami didn't pick Roma!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:08 pm
I just asked her why and she said, "I was just picking randomly!"


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:08 pm
My one moment to gloat!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:08 pm
Brilliant joke


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:08 pm
was never not going to be Roma. I think Picture is a shoo-in too. I do need to watch this, although it doesn’t really entice. I wonder, outside the kudos, how much this has really done for Netflix...


James • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
I'm Mary Poppins Y'all!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
bette!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
bette!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
Yay!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
Ha!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:09 pm
Whatever happened to Bette Midler?

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:10 pm
Too much Netflix-hate for Roma at the last minute...But, again, second is first.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:10 pm
she was in a little broadway show called Hello Dolly last I looked ;)

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:10 pm
Blimey she looks amazeballs!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:11 pm
Not the best song in that movie even


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:11 pm
shame they’ve sped this up...she’d have handled it better slower and been able to give it more emotion


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
I still haven't seen Mary Poppins Returns yet :(

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
Ben - she's supposed to be coming to the West End in Hello dolly :)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
everyone should see MPR

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
That was not a great song :(

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
That was not a great song :(


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:12 pm
WHEN?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:13 pm
from August 8th, Rand.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:14 pm
Yeah, not a great song once taken out of the film.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:14 pm
Just had a Que Sera Sera phone commercial, loved it!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:14 pm
We should...oh...


James • 2/24/2019, 9:14 pm
Everyone should just see MP again instead! :)


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:14 pm
Not sure if my leg is being pulled...


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:15 pm
We should...oh...

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:15 pm
It's still only rumour but autumn according to gossip


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:16 pm
Oh well.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:16 pm
supporting actor coming up

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:16 pm
Would love Richard to win but not gonna happen


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:17 pm
yeah
User avatar
James • 2/24/2019, 9:17 pm
I think it might

Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:17 pm
From Black Panther to Batman XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:18 pm
Adam Driver was good too tbf


James • 2/24/2019, 9:18 pm
Film Editing: 59% in the contest chose Vice


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
More Queen love.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
Ottoman should get it


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
I chose Favourite


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
for all the crap he went though on that film


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
oh, good


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
They might be teasing BR winning all five of its nods

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:19 pm
You have to be joking!! BoRhap?!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:20 pm
Only one person on top now: enelra18, with 10 out of 10.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:20 pm
Nope, BR's going to take Actor, as its "reason". (Still picked it for Editing, tho)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:20 pm
will he thank someone...

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:21 pm
Nope


James • 2/24/2019, 9:21 pm
Supporting Actor: 85% of the contest players chose Mahershala Ali


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:21 pm
Nope, no mention for singer


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:23 pm
ali or Grant

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:23 pm
Massive cheer for Richard


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:24 pm
big cheer for Grant


James • 2/24/2019, 9:24 pm
dangit. i went with grant


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:24 pm
no surprise there


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:25 pm
nice hat, tho


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:25 pm
Mahershala has 2 Oscars now

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:26 pm
Ah, poor Richard.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:26 pm
from the director of Dumb And Dumber To


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:27 pm
animated Feature coming up


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:27 pm
Anyone pick anything other than Spider-Verse?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:28 pm
It's always interesting to see directors like Farrelly do a film that's completely a left turn from their comfort zone.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:28 pm
sherlock Gnomes!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:28 pm
So: Will the voters be lazy, or did they actually WATCH Spiderverse?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
Interesting category...could go any way, even though Spidey is hoovering up the equivalent award at every other show


James • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
Animated Film: 93% of players chose Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
Let's go Spidey!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
I wanted Yeoh nominated for Crazy Rich Asians.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
i need to see Spodey


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
or even Spidey.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:30 pm
Incredibles 2 Must Die. :evil:

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:31 pm
Incredibles 2? Really?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:31 pm
YAY!!!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:31 pm
Isle Of Dogs? Really?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:31 pm
Okay...that’s the 4K disc ordered then,


James • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
I thought they limited the number of winners for this award.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
So glad Pixar did not take this one.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
Depends on number of contenders.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
Spider-Verse!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
lizzie too I think


James • 2/24/2019, 9:32 pm
I meant actual people that get a statuette

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:33 pm
Yep :lol:


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:33 pm
*jumping off the walls as if he's Spidey*
User avatar
Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:33 pm
i liked I2 and thought it was funnier than the first, but it got stuck in the sequel trap for sure.

Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:33 pm
Not sure I dig that dress.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:34 pm
The music/cutting the mic seems to be a bit inconsistent


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:34 pm
Another nom for Netflix.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:34 pm
We waited 14 years to see "Mr. Incredible Babysits!"


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:34 pm
its okay, Rand, you dont have to wear it.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:35 pm
I hope the singing horses from iThree Amigos! make an appearance!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:36 pm
I am not a fan of this song :?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:36 pm
it needs singing horses.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:36 pm
Same here, Ben. Same here. XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:37 pm
Why are all the songs so short?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:37 pm
Oooo, a teaser for The Irishman


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:38 pm
To keep the categothat they wanted to put in the ads

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:38 pm
At least we're GETTING them this year--That was the first complaint


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:39 pm
actually, if they cut the ads, they could lose an hour out of this thing! ;)


James • 2/24/2019, 9:39 pm
Not a great year for songs


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:39 pm
Loved the bullet styling of THe Irishman ad!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:40 pm
thatll be Netflix's big push for next year's Oscars!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:41 pm
Are the Verizon ads playing a "cute" version of Philip Glass?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:41 pm
okay, fun to have Wayne and Garth intro BoRap


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:41 pm
I like it. Good job.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:42 pm
nicely done


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:42 pm
Party on!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:42 pm
Should have let them host


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:43 pm
As Wayne and Garth, James XD


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:43 pm
who and who?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
The guy is Spider-Ham XD


James • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
Animated Short: 75% chose Bao

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
Theyre like hilarious


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
He looks taller here


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
Bao is super sweet


James • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
Not a fan of Bao

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:44 pm
Ah, Bao was sweet. Odd but sweet


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
Aquafina was a hoot in Crazy Rich Asians.


James • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
Maybe my least favorite Pixar short

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
Yay


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
yay!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
less than Sanjay?


James • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
........maybe


James • 2/24/2019, 9:45 pm
:)


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:46 pm
Darn, thought One Small Step would win. Made me cry!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:46 pm
or Partysaurus Rex...!? ;)


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:46 pm
Exactly. First it was just weird... until it got awesome.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:46 pm
and just a little bit profound.


James • 2/24/2019, 9:46 pm
Doc Short: 42% in the contest chose Period. End of Sentence


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:47 pm
These two just got a Feature animations


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:47 pm
...gig.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:48 pm
always wide open on that category.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:48 pm
That was maybe the most unintentionally funny quote ever


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:48 pm
I got Period, whoo!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:48 pm
uh oh...

Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:48 pm
did she just say "menestration"?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 9:49 pm
Yep


James • 2/24/2019, 9:49 pm
Over halfway through and enelra18 is still a perfect 13/13


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:49 pm
Reverand!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:49 pm
Was Disney's 'The Story of Menstruation' nominated for an Oscar?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:49 pm
Okaaaay


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:50 pm
No, it was an educational short


James • 2/24/2019, 9:51 pm
CONTEST RESULTS SO FAR: Ben and Tami are tied for 10th with 10/13


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:51 pm
lizzie, did you get my email about Scoundrels?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:51 pm
Go Ben and Tami!!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:52 pm
ibrmacf is in 31st with 8/12 (not 13!)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:52 pm
Gaga coming up


James • 2/24/2019, 9:52 pm
James and Randall are in 46th with 6/12


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:52 pm
If it was 13, I'd have 9, lol!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:52 pm
Yay! Been looking forward to Shallow


James • 2/24/2019, 9:53 pm
Danger... there are 13 so far! Scores are right otherwise


Randall • 2/24/2019, 9:53 pm
Everyone is doing great. I have nearly half right, which I think is great for me--- and I'm still near the bottom!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:54 pm
Ben - yeah bout Scoundrels. Not v impressed with it tbf...


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:54 pm
viz fx coming up too


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:55 pm
you either mexican, or... ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:56 pm
well that will have made a difference. :roll:


James • 2/24/2019, 9:57 pm
VFX - 66% of players chose Avengers: Infinity War


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:57 pm
I think it will be that, although I went for First Man

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 9:57 pm
(Because we all forgot about Ready Player One by now.)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:58 pm
yay!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 9:58 pm
Get in Ben!


James • 2/24/2019, 9:58 pm
Our leader, enelra18, misses their first award


Ben • 2/24/2019, 9:59 pm
avanegers was too obvious and full of lots we have seen before, first man was a real attempt to get back to basics and a real Doug Trumbull style of doing things, so it felt like something they would want to acknowledge.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 9:59 pm
Ready Player One was robbed, imo


James • 2/24/2019, 10:00 pm
I chose RP1 because i thought it was the kind of VFX film hollywood would like


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:02 pm
but first man used vfx to realistically depict real things and did it in a different way. Very impressive, really, other than being just massive CGI spectacles


James • 2/24/2019, 10:02 pm
Not a fan of any of these songs


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:03 pm
I did think all the songs in A Star Is Bored sounded the same.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:03 pm
Not saying I like it. Terrible movie with terrible effects. Thought Hollywood types would like it though


James • 2/24/2019, 10:04 pm
I think I'm liking this quicker paced show

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:04 pm
Love love love that!!!!!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:04 pm
Yeah the quicker pace makes it seem like it's flowing!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:04 pm
well the vfx guys vote for the vfx awards and they know terrible effects when they see them!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:04 pm
Oh Ready Player One is my fave movie of 2018 so far, lol

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:05 pm
I wouldn't know about the song numbers--Since I had my tablet out, I'm playing Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem during the songs and commercials.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:05 pm
must admit it is racing through, even though it feels lifeless and like it’s jusy a run through list of awards and winners.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:06 pm
Out of the songs nominated that's defo the best. Well performed too. Gaga had googoo eyes for Bradders

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:06 pm
At least it's a run-through that LIKES variety numbers--Second time we had Jon Stewart, it was a lifeless run-through that HATED variety numbers.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 10:07 pm
Best song we have heard, yep.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:07 pm
Live Short: 64% of players chose Marguerite

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:08 pm
I really hope Detainment doesn't win! :x

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:08 pm
Good!


James • 2/24/2019, 10:08 pm
Hey got that one... and it doesn't count!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:08 pm
Yes, shallow is the best of the nom'd somgs
User avatar
Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:09 pm
i haven’t seen First Man yet but must say I am looking forward to our screening a little more on Tuesday now.

James • 2/24/2019, 10:11 pm
Orig. Screenplay: 68% chose The Favourite


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:12 pm
And.......


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:12 pm
whoah

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:13 pm
Has The Favourite won anything yet??


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:13 pm
@Liz: Nope. I'm surprised.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:13 pm
Peter Farrelly gets an Oscar. How about that. XD


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:13 pm
well, it was always Favourite or Green Book to win


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:14 pm
amd being a US show it leaned to the US story.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:14 pm
Adapt Screenplay: 76% of players chose BlacKkKlansman

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:15 pm
BlacKkKlansman should get this


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:15 pm
havent seen Klans yet (we're running it next week) but I hope Spike gets it...because he’s well overdue.


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:15 pm
And now Spike Lee finally gets an Oscar XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
Yaaaaay!!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
look at him go!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
Yes man!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
he did the right thing!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
Yay for Spike!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:16 pm
at last!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:17 pm
didnt need to MF tho...

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:17 pm
Spike might be Scorsese'd for Best Director, but this is his official substitute for Picture.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:18 pm
No one else is gonna get mic time


James • 2/24/2019, 10:18 pm
was about to say that!


Randall • 2/24/2019, 10:18 pm
It was Spike's moment.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:19 pm
a stand O for spike!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:19 pm
a stand O for spike!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:19 pm
At least his Director speech will be shorter--He's used it all up.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:19 pm
He wo t get director. That was his time.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:20 pm
Surprising they didn't mention anything about the In Memoriam section yet


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:20 pm
and he’ll get blasted for swearing


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:20 pm
they put In Memoriam in the seventh commercial break!


James • 2/24/2019, 10:21 pm
Marvel representing!


James • 2/24/2019, 10:22 pm
Score: 57% of players say If Beale Street Could Talk


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:22 pm
It won’t win but c'mon Poppins!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:23 pm
Man, Black Panther is just surprising everyone!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:24 pm
Could be Panther again


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:24 pm
but it wasn’t anything special

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:24 pm
Looks like my vote for Picture won't just be wishful thinking. :)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:24 pm
#OscarsTooBlack?


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:24 pm
Gosh, I'm doing so bad this year, lol!


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:25 pm
And speaking of Black Panther... XD


James • 2/24/2019, 10:25 pm
Song: 87% of players chose Shallow


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:26 pm
my vote is for Renee Zellweger for Actress next year


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:26 pm
just chucking that out there ;)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm
panther wins song over Star Is Bored?


James • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm
"Academy Award winner Lady Gaga"


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:28 pm
Yaaaaaaaaaaay!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:28 pm
Award, singular.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:28 pm
she was already Academy Award Nominated!
User avatar
Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:28 pm
three times!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:29 pm
Well, like they said, now she has something in common with "Man or Muppet".

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:30 pm
Urgh Mark Robson

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:30 pm
(Now she doesn't have to do all those TV specials with Miss Piggy.)

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:30 pm
*Ronson


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:30 pm
well at least "hotly tipped" A Star Is Born took something home in the end.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:31 pm
here we go with all we’d forgotten died this year... ;)

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:31 pm
This is where I say "I didn't know xxx had died"


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:31 pm
A Superman tune, I hear


James • 2/24/2019, 10:31 pm
must've muted the theater audio


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:32 pm
possibky my favourite piece of STM's score


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:32 pm
"North..."

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:32 pm
Fortress of Solitude!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:33 pm
no, this is the Kent farm.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:33 pm
"always remember us"

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:33 pm
Ah, yes.


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:34 pm
Did they show the wrong picture of Will Vinton?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:34 pm
Some big names this year


James • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
No Carol Channing?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
or Elaine Stritch

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
No Dick Miller or did i miss ?

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
No Stanley Donen, in time for the show.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
nice to hear the somewhat random Williams music thi


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:35 pm
My feed was buffering: did they get to insert Stanley Donen?


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:36 pm
No Donen, I'm afraid


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:36 pm
ueah, they missed Dick Miller and Stanley Donen


James • 2/24/2019, 10:36 pm
Wow. Just 4 awards left


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:36 pm
no "Julie Andrews!" Forhim.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:36 pm
no "Julie Andrews!" For him.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 10:37 pm
And yet, Stan Lee.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:37 pm
well he was a little while, ago now.


Randall • 2/24/2019, 10:38 pm
4 awards? Too late for me to make a comeback, I guess. I can only hope to beat James now, if I am lucky.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:39 pm
whoever thought that BoRap could be the big winner at the Oscars!?

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:39 pm
Breida

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:39 pm
Lol


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:39 pm
"LOL"


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:40 pm
i just heard a song that reminded me of the way we were.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:41 pm
Richard's reaction :lol:

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:43 pm
So, BlacKkKlansman was that good? The ONLY ads I saw were John Washington doing his Richard Pryor white-voice on the phone...That was all the ad.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:43 pm
Actor: 83% chose Rami Malek

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:44 pm
@EricJ I thought it was a really good film!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:44 pm
Again, he had to put up with a lot of crap on that film

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:44 pm
Rami Malek shouldn't win this


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:45 pm
hell get sympathy for putting up with Singer


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:45 pm
and a win for him is also a final nail for Singer

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:46 pm
Stupid reason for him winning tho


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:46 pm
crazy


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:46 pm
Rami Malek!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:47 pm
will he name names...

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:47 pm
Told ya - Consolation prize for any hope at Picture

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:47 pm
Urgh

James • 2/24/2019, 10:47 pm
Yowza

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:48 pm
So, just imagine if they HAD gone with Sasha Baron Cohen, as originally planned


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:49 pm
loved him in the Night At The Museum Movies ;)

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:50 pm
Loved him in Breaking Dawn part 2 :wink:


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
:lol:


James • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
I loved him in Battleship


James • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
(not sure which of those last two were worse!)


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
I loved him in high school. True story.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:52 pm
How very dare you :wink:

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:52 pm
I'm actually hoping Melissa McCarthy gets Actress, so she'll turn Important and give up comedy.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:52 pm
:lol: :lol: :lol:


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:52 pm
Lol, it won’t happen but I like the reasoning

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:52 pm
If Tom Hanks could give up "The Money Pit", McCarthy has a LOT to give up.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:53 pm
this is Olivia Colman or Glen Close's to take.


James • 2/24/2019, 10:53 pm
Actress: 85% of our players chose Glenn Close


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:53 pm
Hey, don’t knock Money Pit!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 10:53 pm
Okay, Dragnet, then.=

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:53 pm
US awards so Glenn will get it


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:54 pm
again, Colman got the British Bafta, I think Glen will get the US Oscar.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:54 pm
Definitely don’t be knocking Dragnet! "Look out, Muppets!"


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:57 pm
Stanley Tucci!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:57 pm
Hahahaha


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:58 pm
ooooh, big cheer


Dan • 2/24/2019, 10:58 pm
Colman was fantastic in Broadchurch


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:59 pm
at least the races have been close this year

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 10:59 pm
Wow!!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:59 pm
indeed


James • 2/24/2019, 10:59 pm
Only 3 people correctly picked that one!


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 10:59 pm
I got Colman, whoo!


Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:00 pm
lizzie...make sure you click "continue watching¡...it says 1 minute keft


Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:01 pm
repeat of her Bafta speech basically

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:02 pm
God she's being so British


ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 11:02 pm
I keep getting kicked off the chat for some reason


Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:02 pm
going to end with a let’s gets passed joke


Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:02 pm
"Please wrap up, okay." *raspberry* XD


James • 2/24/2019, 11:03 pm
Sorry ibrmacf, not sure what the issue is

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 11:05 pm
What's with all the nasty violent psycho women in the beer, cars, and ABC ads?


Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:05 pm
Kind of feels right for her to take that. The film was such an awards favourite and it’s not got anything much here tonight. I get from Close that her performance in The Wife is a bit too measured, so she would have been getting it as a career achievement. That Olivia won over Close in her home town says that she really did give the best performance.


Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:06 pm
Spike or Alfonso for director next...

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:07 pm
Brilliant to see her go from Peep Show to Oscar winner (with a fair few steps inbetween obvs)

James • 2/24/2019, 11:07 pm
Director: 79% of our players chose Alfonso Cuaron

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:08 pm
Can’t believe we are near the end!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:08 pm
(and also glad I didn’t fork out a bunch to watch this on Sky...thanks Lizzie!)

ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 11:09 pm
Cuaron! One more award to go!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:09 pm
Roma for Picture then. Good night everybody!

Randall • 2/24/2019, 11:09 pm
Looks like Roma should have it.

James • 2/24/2019, 11:10 pm
I get that it wasn't as big an "event" but it got the job done and there wasn't much to complain about. I like this format.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 11:10 pm
They can do "Short" ceremonies, without bitterness, anger, or Hipness.

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 11:11 pm
This year, the nominees kicked back on songs and categories.
User avatar
Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:11 pm
True that there was zero flab but there was also zero pizazz.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:11 pm
I don't think it's missed having a host really. A bit lifeless but also no cringe moments

James • 2/24/2019, 11:11 pm
I don't have a problem with that.

James • 2/24/2019, 11:12 pm
BTW - fifth time in the last six years a Mexican director has won the award!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:13 pm
Picture: 68% of players chose Roma

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:13 pm
Good job they were on this side of the wall!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
IF it's Black Panther, my confidence will be restored. But it won't be.

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
Panther for a shocker win!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
Bloody immigrants coming over there and stealing your awards :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
BoRap!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
wow

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:14 pm
its wide open! Roma's to lose though...

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Ooh

Randall • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Huh.

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
wowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowwww

Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Peter Farrelly man XD

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Now that's a shocker

James • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
WAIT... not again!

ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Wow, Green Book!

Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
Not surprised, it won the Producers Guild

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:15 pm
theure going to say it’s the wrong envelope!

EricJ • 2/24/2019, 11:16 pm
Now, see, I thought Roma would be the Second-is-First winner...

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:16 pm
How many people do they want on stage

James • 2/24/2019, 11:16 pm
Just kidding you people a minute behind! :lol:

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:16 pm
oit of nowjefe

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:16 pm
okay, so that’s obviously the Netflix backlash

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:17 pm
"you can compete, you can even win some, but you can’t have Best Picture"

Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:17 pm
While I ended up not being in the contest, I did pick Green Book

James • 2/24/2019, 11:17 pm
enelra18 missed this one, dropping him to second place at the last minute!

ibrmacf • 2/24/2019, 11:18 pm
Well this was fun! Gonna leave now, take care, guys!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:18 pm
Our winner (pending a double check) is D82

James • 2/24/2019, 11:19 pm
Be right back...

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:19 pm
Wow...that all kind of fell apart at the end there

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:20 pm
Omce again, for another year, things got shared around fairly fairly

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:21 pm
Just cannot believe BoRhap won the most

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:21 pm
Roma got Director and Foreign, so that was a big winner, can’t believe BoRap was the biggest winner with four awards!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:22 pm
what an odd show, really, with a mix of obvious wins and shocker surprises

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:23 pm
almost half 4am here guys...we made it through!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:23 pm
There wasn't really a consensus this year anyway so I guess it makes sense they spread it around.

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:23 pm
Pleased for Gaga and Olivia. Dame Olivia Coleman soon

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:24 pm
Wish I'd booked today off work. Gotta be up in 3.5 hrs!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:24 pm
Yikes!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:24 pm
Haha...walking Branny to mother!'s at half ten!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:24 pm
Sony Animation's first Oscar was well deserved

Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:24 pm
Man, recently its no longer a given that winning Best Director would mean winning Best Picture.

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:25 pm
Well that has been fun

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:25 pm
glad we got to see it in the end

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:26 pm
thanks Lizzie!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:26 pm
Ben ended the contest in 7th place with 15 out of 22 right (and 17/24 overall)

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:26 pm

ibrmacf and Tami finished 22nd with 13 right

James • 2/24/2019, 11:27 pm
Randall and I ended up with 8 right for 44th place

James • 2/24/2019, 11:27 pm
oops, that should be 9 right for 44th place

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:27 pm
Wait...Tami beat Rand?

James • 2/24/2019, 11:28 pm
Thanks everyone for coming out! Wish these things drew a larger crowd becasue I enjoy them!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:28 pm
She doubled up placement-wise!

James • 2/24/2019, 11:28 pm
My mom made last place :)

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:29 pm
Rand just lost his complimentary seat in my theatre for when he comes over. It’s the corner step for you now, mister!

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:29 pm
Just got a breaking news alert that Olivia won best actress. Big news over here

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:30 pm
yeah...we used to get fair size bigger crowds in here...remember the days of 20 or more names?

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:31 pm

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:32 pm
Olivia and BoRhap will be all over the press.

James • 2/24/2019, 11:32 pm
All right, I need to go do some work updating the website and contacting our winner. Thanks again all!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:32 pm

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:34 pm

We cut the cord (and I didn't get an antenna), so I won't be viewing the Oscars tonight, but I may pop by at times for the chat.

I have the same problem every year (can't connect the cable in my apartment, no matter how I rearrange the furniture, so I cut the cord early on), so consider that there will be a number of folk with the same problem.

Every year, some streaming network takes the live broadcast "hostage" for promotional sales, and this year, you can't stream it without Verizon.
So, please excuse some of us if we have to go through some overseas bootleg site that puts us a minute or two behind everyone else's viewing.

Cut the cord months ago and was initially gonna look into a live stream for this year. Decided to give this YouTube TV thing a whirl (free trial, so why not). *shrugs*
