OK. So after that Biden intro and Gaga performance about sex abuse, they introduce Room with Ali G? WTF?

Can't help but feel like I'm missing something with this guy.

EDIT: Some small consolation that he's being played off

Can't help be a little let down that Inarritu won again. Great job, but Miller was another level to me.

Something seems fitting that he's the only winner to outstay the play off music so far

It's a microcosm of his career, really.

Didn't like the movie but I'm okay with this, esp since she deserved it for Short Term 12

I like him, but I can think of a half dozen of his performances that deserved it more. Hardy acted circles around him in this film.

The most boring spoiler, but thank goodness there was a spoiler here. Really thought there would be logical cohesion to the idea that the movie that won nearly every award was the best picture, but *ascii shrug*

A good Oscar year, really: lots of unexpected wins, only a few terrible ones (and those differ depending on who you are), and another respectable Best Picture
