Awards Season 2024

Fantastic bit about movie theaters. Best segment of the night

Couldn't agree more. Amazing tagline at the end, too.

Nice to see a ceremony where they’re not taking snarky takes on what they’re celebrating.

Jimmy Kimmel to Conan O’Brien is a pretty huge leap in taste level, turns out.

[Brian C]

Gonna give that Stiller bit a B-

Not giving Dune the Production Design Oscar, what are we even doing here.

[TechnicolorAcid]

if the "rock legend" that presents best song is Cher or Steven Tyler, then Diane Warren is finally winning

Not this year.

[Never Cursed]

Alright, one of the worst winners of that Oscar or any Oscar in modern history! The honorees ought to have thanked Brady Corbet in their speech

[mfunk9786]

Speaking of worst winners… here’s best song!

[soundchaser]

I always want this category to include more genuine in-film musical numbers, but I'm not sure this is the way to go.

[hearthesilence]

tbf most "best song" winners are pretty terrible. Even when it's a great recording artist, it can be a terrible song. (Remember Stevie Wonder?)

[ryannichols7]

Mick Jagger showing up and immediately getting the standing ovation was better than any of those winners just now

[knives]

I thought this song was quite good and probably as deserving a winner as possible.

[Brian C]

I'm fine with it, although I'd have voted for the other song from the movie.

It seems like there's a lot of love for this movie in the room that The Tweets only partially subdued.

[ryannichols7]

a Bill Morrison / No Other Land back to back win would save this entire night

[Never Cursed]

Lol at Diane Warren not even getting the sympathy vote after her house burned down

I thought this song was quite good and probably as deserving a winner as possible.

Was it even the best song in the movie?

[beamish14]

“Nationwide is on your…” (takes pause) “siiiiide.” (Strums chord)

[hearthesilence]

LOL at "don't worry, I'm lawyered up."

[Matt]

I thought "El Mal" was the best song (and the best-performed song) in Emilia Perez, but that's damning with faint praise. Also probably the best nominee.

Bob Dylan of all people DID win for a brilliant song (“Things Have Changed” from Wonder Boys)

I can’t take a category seriously that didn’t recognize Jim Steinman for “Tonight is What it Means to be Young” or Dan Hartman’s “I Can Dream About You.”

Yes, I love Streets of Fire

[knives]

100%

[ryannichols7]

I don't care about anything else truly, No Other Land winning is literally all that matters in the grand scheme of things. what a moment

[mfunk9786]

Incredibly moving speech, the most memorable Oscar speech in ages

[beamish14]

a Bill Morrison / No Other Land back to back win would save this entire night

Morrison really got screwed. It’s an incredible work

[ryannichols7]

Palestine got mentioned on the Oscar stage and we had an Israeli calling out the US government from the stage. that's literally as great as it gets

a Bill Morrison / No Other Land back to back win would save this entire night

Morrison really got screwed. It’s an incredible work

Morrison one day will hopefully see that stage. he's such a gift and has been for so long now

[Matt]

Diane Warren should have an Oscar, but she should have it for "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" from Armageddon, a legitimately great power ballad. I dare you to hum from memory the song that won against it: "When You Believe" from The Prince of Egypt.

[knives]

I do that all the time actually.

[Brian C]

Fire lady has some comic chops.

I'm dying at that "kilometers/kilometery" joke, I don't care.
