movie 96th Academy Awards | Top Winners: Oppenheimer 7x, Poor Things 4x

[Almodusa]

I assume Al forgot to say “and the nominees are” but in that silence you’d think the producers would tell whoever plays the clips to start them right away before he announces. So idk

Category fraud biting her in the ass and Da'Vine still would have deserved to win over her

How is it a supporting performance? Category is lead. In which dimension, Gladstone wasn't the lead actress in KOTFM?

 

Overall a pretty boring night. Barbie winning nothing (excluding Song), KOTFM winning nothing, Oppenheimer getting the most, is pretty revealing of the state of the industry. I'm glad Zone of Interest got some rewards, well deserved.

 

I feel bad for Stone as she def felt bad herself and knew she didn't need it.

dramaless oscars show 

 

anyways I'm happy for Billie and Emma but I'm kinda sad because I held on to the hope that The Holdovers / Poor Things would get Best Picture up to the very last minute

Still crying for Cillian and Miyazaki. TALENT really WON tonight

Pundits can start to reevaluate themselves as pundits.

This should've been her first win which would be for her best performance, but she stole Isabelle Huppert's Oscar in 2017!

which wasn't possible since poor things was Oscar snubbed, while Godzilla was bafta snubbed

G-1.0 records:

- First Japanese film to win Visual Effects (or even get the nomination)

- Takashi Yamazaki becomes the second director to win for their own movie in this category after Kubrick for 2001: A Space Odyssey

- Kiyoko Shibuya becomes the first woman of color to win and the 3rd woman overall after Sara Bennett (Ex Machina) and Suzanne M. Benson (Aliens)

I'd be really curious to see how the English dialogue in "Anatomy of the Fall" was handled. The level of English from Justine Triet and Arthur Harari, clearly aiming for a script half in English, makes me wonder why the translator or adaptor wasn't nominated for it. They can barely string together one sentence. Pretty embarrassing.

 

Also they should hire better writers for past winner speeches. Some were great and felt genuine about the person they were speaking about, others felt like they didn't even know the movie or the career (Lawrence for instance was atrocious to talk about Gladstone, Theron, Yeoh or Kingsley too, reading too much and felt like they just didn't care nor prepared for it)

I mean, it's a lot easier to take your time to write dialogue in another language than it is to speak it on the spot...

there's no post show coverage this year?

Yet, how do you find it to be relatable and since if you REALLY don't speak it. No offense, but I could say the same about Zone of Interest if Glazer isn't speaking German. They won for script, well they def got someone to help with most of the dialogues.

i was baffled why she wasn’t doing Emma’s  the other categories were really cute but the Best Actress one felt like they picked actresses who didn’t really know the ones they were introducing

Did anyone else notice Emma Stone completely snub Jessica Lang? I was taken back, not you Emma!

She didn’t? She acknowledged her twice. Once right when she got on stage, the second time when she turned around and extended her hand to her.

i thought she tried to acknowledge everyone on stage. robert downey jr snubbed ke huy quan though which was a bit awkward. 

[Donquizote]

Emma was so afraid that she would suffer wardrobe malfunction on stage and end up like Janet Jackson
