Post by James » February 25th, 2019, 12:20 am
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
!
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.
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
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

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.
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
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.
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!
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.

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
ah, no.
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
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
Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
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
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
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
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!
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
time to catch up on a handful of filums while we have this trial!
User avatar
James • 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
shell be on the front of all the papers in a couple of hours!
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
ooh, there’s just half an hour of tron left on the other channel, Lizzie!
Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:32 pm
I'll cancel the free trial on 9 March to make sure I don't get charged so make sure you binge watch stuff
Dan • 2/24/2019, 11:33 pm
Oooo, Tron XD
Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:33 pm
Oh damn. What a shame I've gotta try n get some sleep...
James • 2/24/2019, 11:34 pm
Nice to meet you Lizlak! Thanks for dragging Ben here for us!
Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:34 pm
Think you can download stuff but not sure if it stays on your device if you cancel the trial. Will be sure to watch stuff before 9 March (March 9!)
Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:34 pm
Haha! You're welcome. Same time next year probs. Night all. Or rather morning!
Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:34 pm

Lizlak • 2/24/2019, 11:35 pm
Nah, 9 March is right
Ben • 2/24/2019, 11:35 pm

BBBBYYEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
James • 2/24/2019, 11:37 pm
See ya real soon!
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
!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.
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
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.

I disabled it about 30 minutes ago.

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

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
yeah, it’s been getting a lot of kudos for its sound
Ben • 2/24/2019, 8:57 pm
oh yeah, Lizzie...
James • 2/24/2019, 8:58 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 19thBen • 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

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

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.
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
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

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.
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!
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!

Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm

James • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm
"Academy Award winner Lady Gaga"
Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:27 pm
ah, no.
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

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

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
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
Ben • 2/24/2019, 10:51 pm
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
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
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
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!
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

User avatar
James • 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

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.
