2016 Academy Awards (Oscars) - Ceremony & Red Carpet

[Maofan7]

I hope Mark Rylance wins best supporting actor, but it will probably be Sly

Why is Kate Winslet wearing a vinyl record?

 

[Cachoo]

From someone who was underwhelmed by Mad Max I will give it this: It paid respect to the original films but had it's own look and there were things I'd never seen on film before mainly in the long, long chase scenes. I suspect it was so difficult to film. And I never stopped watching.

 

[IceAlisa]

How did I miss The Bridge of Spies????

 

[BigB08822]

Kate Winslet's glasses are sitting so crooked on her face it is driving me absolutely insane. Why is she even wearing glasses?

And his dad is super hot:

Yes, he is. I saw that photo earlier. His dad looks a like a young Josh Lucas.

Mark Rylance was fantastic, and I would love to see him win. But, Sly is the overwhelming sentimental favorite.

How did I miss The Bridge of Spies????

It came out earlier in the year than most Oscar contenders usually do? It's well worth seeing, IMO.

kate capshaw made some interesting choices tonight.

 

[once_upon]

Reese looked like she was going to hurl

 

[Cachoo]

I didn't like Jennifer Garner's dress on the red carpet but thought it looked gorgeous on stage under the lights.

 

[Maofan7]

Why is Kate Winslet wearing a vinyl record?

Her husband is Ned Rocknroll

 

[Cachoo]

I want Rylance or Ruffalo but I suspect an "S" will win tonight.

 

[Allskate]

Chris Rock is letting IceAlisa know that she is not the only one who didn't know about "The Bridge of Spies."

 

[Lacey]

OK, this piece, with Chris Rock asking black people if they had seen various movies and none of them had seen any of them, was fabulous.

 

[my little pony]

dont they know it's a school night?

 

[jenny12]

OK, this piece, with Chris Rock asking black people if they had seen various movies and none of them had seen any of them, was fabulous.

Loved it!

 

[Cachoo]

Months ago I called Alicia Vikander enchanting and I still think she is enchanting after the long awards season. What a future she has....

 

[IceAlisa]

Patricia Arquette sounds heavily medicated.

 

[Matryeshka]

Im sure 50 shades was a terrible movie ( I didn't see it) but the soundtrack was fab

Yes, I want to see the movie that fits both that song and Elli Goulding's. I normally don't like Goulding, but that's a damn sexy song.

The only issue I have with Chris Rock's commentary is that the initial controversy, which I believe the NAACP did make a point of saying, was not that it was not just African Americans, but no Asians, Hispanics, or anyone of any other race than white in the acting categories. I'm glad the one interviewee did make that comment.

 

[Allskate]

Is Patricia Arquette incapable of including any inflections or emotion in her speaking? She is always so monotone.

 

[aftershocks]

I loved that bit and it was nice and short. Plus, my best friend's daughter is selling GSC right now and that's pretty much how it is.

Classy bondage? I kind of like the staging. A lot better than Sam Smith.

Sure, it's just stop cutting into speeches unless a person is really going on and on. They only give them a set amount of time, when some are short and sweet, and others have more to say.


Please let it be Mark Ruffalo!!!

NO! Come on! I heard "Mark" and thought it was Mark Ruffalo! Mark Ruffalo has done such good work and never won. He was also so good in playing another real person last year (the wrestler who was killed).

Rylance is a good actor, but it is sooo overdue for Mark Ruffalo. He was someone I was really pulling for tonight.

 

[Allskate]

Yay for Mark Rylance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ETA: That's a major upset. But so well deserved. And a very nice speech.

 

[Maofan7]

Mark Rylance wins!

 

[BigB08822]

Mark Rylance? That is a surprise. I thought it would be Stallone for sure.

 

[my little pony]

omg that woke me up! go mark rylance. imo way more deserving than stallone who i expected to win.

 

[jenny12]

Wow! Go Mark Rylance!

Also, what a lovely speech!

Mark Ruffalo's oscar clip was such an oscar clip. Bleh. So glad he didn't win. He was the worst part of Spotlight IMO.

 

[oleada]

Rylance was the only good thing about Bridge of Spies

 

[peibeck]

Thank you Academy for saving some face and not giving Sylvester Stallone an award for acting.

 

[Cachoo]

That was SWEET!
