Didn't you read the story this past week? Academy members let their maids and cooks fill out their ballots!

This last comedy bit seems a tad unnecessary at this stage...

Yea, I wasn't bragging... just that the winners are so predictable that I could go 4-4 year after year even when I haven't seen all the performances (and I've only seen 2 of the 4 winners this year).

I'm fine with it winning best picture... but the screenplay and directing should've gone to others.

Best Actor and Best Picture were the only categories I really cared about. Lead in not winning is an upset if you ask me but I guess it is what it is. It's a shame because I doubt he'll get another nomination anytime soon seeing as he doesn't do many films these days and this was a big role for him where he really had opportunity to shine.

Oh well. Linklater will try again another day. I'll have to rewatch Birdman, I suppose.

Come on Inarritu, at least let Keaton say a few words after he got snubbed.

This show must have a record for the number of causes cited in acceptance speeches. Did anyone keep count?
