The Oscars 2019

[Cockney Mackem]

I thought that as well. But I can see the idea behind having three sets of votes, I guess. I wonder if the voting figures will be released at some point, too.

Turns out it's even more complicated than that. Changed in 2009 apparently

I really didn’t enjoy Black Panther mind and I love Marvel in general. The cynic in me thinks it’s been nominated and won as a bit of a box ticking excersise.

If I'd had a drink for every time politics or Trump were mentioned during that ceremony I'd be f***ing deeed.

What the fuck has happened to mainstream television?

 

[hefty em]

Sophie off peep shows got an Oscar.

 

[Two million voices]

Green Book was superb like.

 

[Sima]

Chuffed for Olivia Colman. Bet Netflix are glad they signed her a few months back, her fee would now be through the roof.

 

[PhilSAFC]

She could barely act in peep show so come a long way.

Hope she chills out for a while to be honest, she’s always working and I’ve lost count the amount of times I’ve put something on and she’s been in it. Her working credits must be longer than the bible.

She can probably pick and choose her roles now as she’ll be able to command a higher salary on the back of this. Plus it’s probably demanding playing that role for Netflix.

 

[PhilSAFC]

Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga were class mind.

 

[Mr Vertigo]

Eh?

 

[PhilSAFC]

Eh?

Pretty clear statement I thought. Not sure how I can rephrase.

It was OK like. Nee Chappie.

By explaining how you think she could barely act, perhaps?

 

[sylvian]

Don't know much about him (apart from some of his films), but has Spike Lee got a bit of a chip on his shoulder?

 

[Dogbark]

It's an absolute joke how TV Series are now better than filums.

Spends the whole time staring into the camera. Very amateurish
