I hope human trafficking gets mentioned next to stop the stupid walk off music. Or pedophilia. Whatever it takes.

One of the reasons the Oscars have gone downhill is that they no longer present the Honorary Oscars on the show. That was always my favorite part of the show.

How to Train Your Dragon 2 was the best animated movie of last year. All this Lego movie was snubbed talk is bullshit. Deal with it.

Ok. Now talk about Boxtrolls, Kaguya, and Song of the Sea, and why they don't deserve it more than How to Train Your Dragon 2.

I'm behind so I haven't read all the posts in this thread but I'm shocked at how bad NPH is tanking this. Just awful.

John Legend must be feeling pretty confident right now. What a weak group of songs.

Wasn't as well received critically as The Lego Movie from either RT or Meta. Deal with that.

Is it me, or does this McGraw guy have a very plain voice? Doesn't sound much better than the average karaoke singer.

Yeah. How awesome would it have been to see Maureen O'Hara out there getting a standing ovation?

And Miyazaki, too. (Someone I've actually met.)

They're starting off with a homosexuality+Birdman reference? What?

And I guess some Whiplash, too?

At least the Birdman and Whiplash inclusion was creative.
