94th Annual Academy Awards Thread

[Spikefan]

I really dislike this new format. I want clips and introductions. A two second shot and title tells me nothing. Too many commercials and pointless segments.

Think I am calling it for the first year ever.

 

[Desperado]

I find the gowns and tuxedos are particularly nice this year.

I was rooting for Encanto to win best score. But I'm very happy Hans Zimmer has another Oscar. It's been way overdue.

I didn't realise the last time he won was for The Lion King.

Omg this is so painfully horrific I can’t stand it

 

[BaileyCatts]

What just happened?????

 

[Desperado]

What the hell? Did Will Smith really punch him out over a joke?

 

[Jay42]

It sure looks like it.

 

[Allskate]

It was total silence for me during the Chris Rock and Will Smith exchange. What did they say?

 

[BaileyCatts]

Imma need some links when this hits the press please.

Summer of Soul wins Best Documentary Feature

It was total silence for me during the Chris Rock and Will Smith exchange. What did they say?

It was muted for everyone.

 

[Jay42]

This is what someone said Will Smith said on Twitter

 

[jenny12]

I’m happy for Questlove but that Will Smith/Chris Rock thing is really distracting me. ?

But really lovely speech by Questlove.

 

[Jay42]

Someone else on Twitter said that Jada has alopecia so that makes the joke in very poor taste indeed.

 

[caseyedwards]

Smack heard round the world!! Lol

 

[Kruss]

That was it? Re the "tribute" to The Godfather. I expected more.

 

[Allskate]

I’m happy for Questlove but that Will Smith/Chris Rock thing is really distracting me.

It's so bizarre. Both Chris and Will come off looking bad.

 

[alexikeguchi]

I don't know if it will disappear, but this clip from Japanese television has the uncensored slap and verbal exchange though not the original joke.

 

[Allskate]

Here's a clip:

ETA: The weird thing is that it looks like Will initially laughed at the joke. (Jada did not.)

 

[Desperado]

Not a fan of the choir taking away from the people who’ve past montage but I like the special presentations.

 

[Wyliefan]

I wasn't watching, but there was a great wave of "WHAT JUST HAPPENED?" on my Twitter timeline.

So if Will wins Best Actor now, just how awkward is THAT moment going to be?

 

[Wyliefan]

And "WHAT JUST HAPPENED" is now trending on Twitter!

 

[Kasey]

That “in memorium” segment was tacky

 

[jenny12]

Hopefully Andrew Garfield wins best actor ?

If it was real, I think Rock's joke was in poor taste but obviously violence isn't the answer.

 

[Wyliefan]

That “in memorium” segment was tacky

I swear it gets worse every year.

 

[Jay42]

No Time To Die win Best Song
