2016 Academy Awards (Oscars) - Ceremony & Red Carpet

Ryalnce seems like a perfect gentleman. Loved him in bridge of spies

 

[Allskate]

Rylance was the only good thing about Bridge of Spies

I don't think it's an epic film, but I don't think it's bad at all. It's kind of standard good film making, IMO. I was very glad I went to see it. And, in a year when there were not a lot of great films, it was better than the majority of films I saw this year.

 

[once_upon]

Patricia Arquette sounds heavily medicated.

Always. And she can't act or talk.

 

[Lacey]

Rylance's acting piece in Bridge of Spies was so stunningly subtle, great award.

 

[aftershocks]

Rylance is a good actor and so nuanced in Bridge of Spies, but still when is Mark Ruffalo going to be rewarded? I guess that's the breaks.

 

[peibeck]

In a year where someone like Donald Trump is a leading presidential candidate a movie like "Bridge of Spies" is a good reminder of why diplomacy is important.

 

[IceAlisa]

I just found out Chris Rock is 51. Amazing.

I thought it was so generic and nothing special, to be honest. Rylance was great, but that's about it.

 

[VGThuy]

It's crazy how much I disagree with a lot of other posters' taste in film.

I just found out Chris Rock is 51. Amazing.

He looks great!

 

[IceAlisa]

He looks great!

He looks like he is in his 30s.

 

[IceAlisa]

And Daisy Ridley's dress looks even worse under the stage lights. No way that Ukrainian film is going to win.

 

[Kasey]

AMY!! Yay!

 

[Allskate]

"Amy" was the only nominee I saw in this category. I thought it was really well done, especially considering the fact that they obviously did it after she was dead.

 

[my little pony]

i really enjoyed amy but i didnt see the others

 

[IceAlisa]

It's crazy how much I disagree with a lot of other posters' taste in film.

If you liked Mad Max, you are right there with the Academy.

I want to see Amy.

 

[BigB08822]

I really want to see Amy. I hope it will be available soon on Netflix or some similar platform.

 

[topaz]

I still miss the music of Amy Winehouse. One of my favorite artist of all time.

 

[topaz]

Amy is on netflix

The Nina Simone doc is on netflix too. It was fantastic.

 

[my little pony]

i saw amy on demand (verizon)

im so old i dont even know how to explain that properly

 

[aftershocks]

I like how they've been handling the 'diversity' controversy. However, all the humor will only be worthwhile if they are actually serious about trying to be more inclusive without hastily instituting rules that exclude older voters and don't effectively address the real issues.

 

[peibeck]

I really want to see Amy. I hope it will be available soon on Netflix or some similar platform.

It's on Amazon Prime. "What Happened Miss Simone" and "Winter on Fire" are both on Netflix.

 

[Allskate]

"Amy" is a Prime video streaming on Amazon.

 

[smurfy]

Amy is a great film, such a beautiful singer, and sad to see her downfall. The movie was very poignant and reminds us what we lost

 

[peibeck]

Amy is on netflix

The Nina Simone doc is on netflix too. It was fantastic.

Oh I didn't know it was on Netflix, I'll have to catch it then. The Nina Simone movie was great but soooooo depressing.

 

[my little pony]

i heard what's love got to do with it and i expected to see v/m

 

[oleada]

CartelLand is also on Netflix.

 

[Kasey]

Uh...wow. A speech from the president of the Academy on inclusion? (however, -1 for the illusion fabric on her dress, and another -1 for the earrings that looked like toys out of a gumball machine)
