Brad Pitt wins best supporting actor as expected. Well deserved.

reply

Tough category this year!
Good for Pitt

ALLABY 7K btw🎈🍺

reply

You got Pitt. I didn't like that film.

reply

I thought it was fantastic.

reply

I didn't like it either.

reply

Best animated feature goes to Toy Story 4!!!

reply

the only film i was really pulling for (klaus) is now kaput, so i am officially not invested in anything that will happen.

(i don't have a tv anyway, so i only follow these things on twitter).

reply

Judging by the number of comments on here I don't think anyone else is that invested in these Oscars either.

reply

Aren't you a fan of Parasite?

reply

oh, absolutely. loved it. would be very happy to see it win.

but i thought klaus was such a fun, sweet little movie, and i was really pulling for it to get an upset win and get a bit more attention.

there are films i'd like to see win (parasite, once upon...), and others i'm less fond of...

but klaus was the only one i was really invested in.

reply

Pretty weak year for animations then.

reply

Toy Story 4 was excellent and a deserving winner.

reply

It was the weakest of the franchise. Not bad but not great.

reply

I'd put part 2 as the weakest.

reply

The second is a bit better than the 4th but those 2 aren't as strong as the other 2.

reply

Moreso a matter of weak taste. Oscs are 100% balogna, but particularly clueless and basic when it comes to animation.

reply

Animated short goes to Hair Love!!! I haven't seen it, but I correctly guessed it.

reply

Yikes...

reply

I am enjoying the Elsas

reply

Yes, the Elsa were great.

reply

I like it when they throw in the voices from other countries. They did that at the 10 year Les Mis concert.

reply

Why did that guy presenter pronounce Adele Dazeem's name all wrong?

reply

Diane Keaton and Keanu Reeves...I think I like the no main host format
