For Private Benjamin, I think.

I thought it was Cactus Flower

Best Animated Feature Film: Flow

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I thought it was Cactus Flower

Yep, it was Cactus Flower.

 

[peibeck]

"Flow" a slight upset over "The Wild Robot," hope more upsets are in the making.

Cactus Flower - 1970

FLOW!!!

 

[Jay42]

I am so happy Flow won Best Animated! I honestly thought The Wild Robot was going to win after it's more recent wins. I would have been fine with that but Flow really grabbed me in a way The Wild Robot didn't

 

[genevieve]

Also happy for In the Shadow of the Cyprus!

Best Animated Short Film: In the Shadow of the Cypress

Goldie Hawn's dress is gorgeous

I’m so thrilled. Flow had incredible storytelling with probably the best animation of animals I’ve ever seen.

 

[peibeck]

Yikes at this guy's misogynistic tone with his co-winner.

 

[Allskate]

Best Animated Short Film: In the Shadow of the Cypress

The dude grabbing the phone from the woman and then repeating what she said. Worst acceptance speech.

 

[allezfred]

I had forgotten about the sheer amount of US TV ad breaks…

The dude grabbing the phone from the woman and then repeating what she said. Worst acceptance speech.

I know. I bet these two hated working with each other. If they remotely got along, they’d probably would have gone over how the acceptance speech would go.

Why are we talking about the costumes when we should be seeing the costumes?

 

[genevieve]

I love getting to see the costume designer nominees because they always look amazing

Ok except the Gladiator guy who just has a plain suit

 

[ilovepaydays]

Best Costume Design: Wicked

 

[ilovepaydays]

My gawd. This started an hour earlier but it’s still going to go past 11pm, will it?!

 

[Jay42]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that Paul Tazewell is the first Black man to win for costumes. I think it's because I know there's been a few Black women that have won.

 

[peibeck]

Why are we talking about the costumes when we should be seeing the costumes?

Well the were showing 5 different renderings of each movie behind each of the hosts, which was probably effective in the theater but lost on TV.

 

[Cachoo]

Cactus Flower - 1970

FLOW!!!

Well I’m happy!

 

[Jay42]

I can't believe it took me this long to realise that the announcer is Nick Offerman. I love Nick Offerman

 

[peibeck]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that Paul Tazewell is the first Black man to win for costumes. I think it's because I know there's been a few Black women that have won.

Will be interesting to see if he wins the Tony as well this year for the musical version of "Death Becomes Her." (He previously won for "Hamilton.")

 

[once_upon]

I thought we were going to do this s__!

 

[peibeck]

I love Amy Poehler's simple, elegant black gown.

Best Original Screenplay: Sean Baker, Anora

 

[my little pony]

when I saw Anora I thought I know a man wrote this

 

[Jay42]

Jesse Eisenberg had been winning a bunch of the screenplay awards so I am a little surprised at this but good for Sean Baker. Bodes well for a potential Best Picture win.

 

[Judy]

I think that it would have been better if Chalamet had worn a “typical” colored suit with just a flash of a bright color. Especially considering that he could win tonight.

At least it wasn’t a super bright highlighter color.

Really like it lol along with the black shoes lol.
