2023 Oscars “Red” Carpet & Ceremony

[Amy L]

I kind of want to see this movie, but it looks pretty intense. I'm already anti-war, I don't know if I want to see corpses rotting in a trench.

Well-deserved win for All Quiet on the Western Front for Best Score. Brilliantly used in the film.

DANG! All Quiet on the Western Front is winning most of the tech Oscars!

Production Design: "All Quiet on the Western Front"

If there is a Best Picture upset, it's going to be this movie.

Hmm - It’s not nominated for Best Director, which typically the Best Picture winner is usually also (at least) nominated for.

 

[Desperado]

Andie MacDowell and Hugh Grant presenting together takes me back.

I’m basically here to see Michelle Yeoh win, as I haven’t seen any of the “only in theatres” movies.

She reportedly did not have time to rehearse and was just going to show up for the show and not perform. Maybe she didn't rehearse and decided to perform anyway.

Although it doesn't always seem like it, these shows are well rehearsed. I don't think she just showed up with a few musicians (and a change of clothes) and said "Let's go!" More likely it was just a well kept secret with a falsely planted story.

The whole point of the movie is that war is senseless.

Lady Gaga showed up wearing this so the no makeup black t-shirt performance seems pre-recorded?

Animated short film: "The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse"

Where can I watch this one?

 

[VGThuy]

The only thing I really know about All Quiet was that it took out all the open hetero male affection the original film (a best pic winner) had.

 

[Spikefan]

I’m just tired of war, I get the movie depicts just that but the megalomaniacs and despots aren’t seeing it or caring. The only war movie I needed to see was “The Killing Fields” and I got it, I was 11.

 

[Amy L]

The whole point of the movie is that war is senseless.

Already agree! I just have to be in a mood to watch squick in order to get through it.

 

[PRlady]

I think the last war movie I saw was Dunkirk. Usually one a year is my limit.

It won the BAFTA over EEAAO and Banashees....
The Variety critic predicted it would win as older voters would favor a traditional anti-war message film over the far more experimental EEAAO, and Best Picture, unlike all the other categories, is on a weighted ballot. (And the Director of "All Quiet" won the BAFTA too, in a surprise.) Best Picture winners without Director nods have happened before, like "Argo."

Voiceless Elizabeth Banks and the bear is a bad skit.

 

[peibeck]

Visual Effects: "Avatar: the Way of Water"

 

[Amy L]

Does this count as an Irish win for @allezfred?

 

[jenny12]

Avatar: Way of Water for Visual Effects. Probably the most obvious win of the night. Aww, I wish they wouldn’t cut people off.

 

[Spikefan]

They played them off too. So only the colonizers get extra time to speak.

 

[Amy L]

We could have traded this goofy-ass skit for letting more people get their thanks in.

 

[MacMadame]

The whole point of the movie is that war is senseless.

But I already know that war is pointless.

I think the last war movie I saw was Inglorious Bastards, I think. I avoid them for many reasons.

 

[Matryeshka]

MALALA!!!! I think she's scared. I would be too. The bear is just..tacky.

 

[Desperado]

Yes, but her dress was spectacular

 

[Matryeshka]

Yes, but her dress was spectacular

And that is what matters.

 

[peibeck]

Rhianna gets my vote, even though I don't really love that song, but I expect the "Naatu Naatu" song will win.

Florence looks like her luggage got lost and she wrapped herself in a bedsheet.

Over a bathing suit from the 50’s.

 

[PRlady]

I guess everything everywhere will win Best Pic after getting screenplay and supporting actors. Yawn. It’s been years since I was enthralled with a BP winner.

 

[Matryeshka]

LOVE this jacket. It's like an anime version of a Texan goes to a casino
