Someone give Bridges Best Actor for not making this 10x more awkward than it actually is.

Well, at this point, why not? Haven't seen them all but so far I would have to say :
Honorable mention - Anne Hathaway in the shimmy dress
#3 - Scarlett Johansson - hair's a mess and the dress isn't up to usual snuff but you're Scar Jo so automatically on the list.
#2 - Mila Kunis - peekaboo underneath thingy, and the purple color, outstanding.
#1 - Jennifer Lawrence - did you SEE her in that red dress?!

Jennifer Lawrence winning would make up for Fincher losing IMO. Hell of an upset and it would continue the Benning trend.

I forgot how much I loved the Future Room.

well, the Benning trend continues. haha I guess she'll have to settle for a Lifetime Achievement award in 20 years.

Go Natalie go! Fully expected but still great to see her win.

Natalie Portman gave the best performance this year.

Predictable, but there was no bad nominees for this one so happy?

Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I thought she was fantastic but I never understood why/how she became such a unanimous shoe-in for the award. I still think Michelle deserved it but that's just me.

edit: I'm so sick of Sandra Bullock

you have more than 1 supporter here.

IMHO

Yeah, well, I'm not a king either, and you don't see me crying about it.

Portman was great, but Gretta Gerwig gave the perf of last year, no doubt

Not quite worth spelling her name right, but good

Is Geoffrey Rush playing a cancer patient?

He's back onstage in Brooklyn Tuesday in Gogol's Diary of a Madman

Didn't they say at the outset that they'd be paying tribute to some of the great Oscar winners in history? I know they mentioned GWTW and, um, Titanic, but after that they abandoned that idea? Or I missed something?

Spielberg is next, so he counts for about 3 of them.

Did you see your girl Michelle's performance yet, by the way?

woulda been nice if they got rid of the crap and gave everyone "actor/actress acceptance speech time"...or gave the honorary Oscars out in primetime

If we could get through this montage without actually identifying any of the movies, that would be great. Cause it's not like 95% or so of viewers have seen only 1 or 2 of these.

is the best pic nominee mashup new?
