Horrible show. Boring. Pacino was the worst. Waited over 3 hours to see the highlights of the top 10 movies nominated and....nothing.

They showed the highlights all through the show - were you actually watching porn on your phone?

Was it a real tweet?

Kimmel read a real tweet from Trump.

Best thing on the show was in the commercials:

Gosling could win an Emmy for his Oscars performance

They cut off so many winners mid-speech or only let one person of a team speak (until the very end) yet didn’t have enough material to fill the full time allotted and finished 7 mins early… poor planning.

Not a tweet, a post on Truth Social.

It's considered one of the best films yet made in this century and I'm still angry that the cast and crew didn't get their moment in the sun because of the cockup with the envelopes at the Oscars that year.

It's a brilliant film, full of brilliant performances.

And yes, I'm going there - Oscars so white 2024. Again.

+1 million. I am a Catholic with relatively “traditional” views of sexuality - Moonlight was a masterpiece, an absolutely amazing showcase of humanity and empathy. Just breathtaking.

Moonlight broke my heart. Seeing that broken boy’s path that he didn’t deserve and trying to find himself in the end as an adult. It was a really emotional and sad movie.

Does anyone else feel that Lily Gladstone should have been awarded the Best Actress Oscar for her role as Mollie Burkhardt in Killers the Flower Moon? Sorry, but it smacks of the usual Academy racism to hand that to Emma Stone. Seriously?!

I haven’t seen either performance so can’t comment other than to say that while I once lived and worked with the Blackfeet, Gladstone’s actual tribe in northern Montana, and I’ve seen her give a fantastic performance in a small Montana film called Certain Women, I wouldn’t want to see her win an Oscar just because she’s native if she didn’t really give the best performance.

I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews of KOTFM. In general I’ve heard little about Poor Things except about how riveting Stone’s performance was. It certainly sounds like the most challenging role of all that were nominated.

KOTFM is an incredible movie, and Lily Gladstone was a revelation. She stood her own in every scene. It’s racism to hand the prize to Emma Stone again.

Bradley Cooper should have won best actor.

I liked Emma's performance but I thought lily did better becoming her character. Watching poor things it feel like oh here's stone acting.

Gladstone gave a more subtle and restrained performance, and the academy members often vote for bigger, showier performances like Stone's instead. In fact, the same thing happened when Glenn Close was widely expected to win Best Actress for The Wife, which was a masterpiece of subtlety, but Olivia Colman took the award for The Favourite, in which she squawked and screamed the whole movie. Both Stone and Colman were directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.
