Given the nominees I am surprised that Conclave won (and I enjoyed the film a lot)

I think it swept all the precursor awards.

Is @AngieNikodinovLove (ANL) stalking the red carpet? I expected him to be here in this thread.

[my little pony]

June squibb would have a nom If that movie had come out slightly later, it's robbery

[genevieve]

Halle Berry’s dress is amazing

"The Substance" win for Hair/Makeup wasn't on my bingo card.

 

[Jay42]

Weird that they didn't get Michelle Yeoh up there too for the Bond tribute

 

[genevieve]

I’ve never seen a Bond film in its entirety

I so wanted her to win for the little seen, under appreciated "Nebraska" about a decade ago.

 

[Jay42]

I’ve never seen a Bond film in its entirety

I'm impressed. I think I've seen 3.

Commentary from my dad: the original Bond Sean Connery is hard to beat but that recent guy Daniel Craig was pretty good too.

Who is this rando Lisa singing Bond themes?

Who is this rando Lisa singing Bond themes?

Doja Cat!

 

[peibeck]

Doja Cat is no Shirley Bassey....

 

[Jay42]

Who is this rando Lisa singing Bond themes?

I think Lisa is a K-Pop singer trying to break into Hollywood but don't quote me on it.

I've never heard Doja Cat actually sing before, just rap. She's got a great voice.

 

[genevieve]

I miss Shirley Bassey

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I miss Shirley Bassey

Don’t we all?

 

[Jay42]

Doja Cat is no Shirley Bassey....

She definitely isn't but she's a lot better than I expected her to be so I guess my bar was really low lol

 

[ilovepaydays]

Um……..where’s ADELE??!! IIRC, she literally won an Oscar for “Skyfall”.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

There was no reason why they couldn’t have asked some recent Bond theme singers to perform.

 

[peibeck]

She definitely isn't but she's a lot better than I expected her to be so I guess my bar was really low lol

I guess so... she maybe hit 60% of the right notes.

 

[Allskate]

There was no reason why they couldn’t have asked some recent Bond theme singers to perform.

Maybe they did? I'm sure they would have loved for Adele to perform.

 

[genevieve]

Where was Sheena Easton??

 

[peibeck]

Um……..where’s ADELE??!! IIRC, she literally won an Oscar for “Skyfall”.

Laughing her ass off at home?

 

[ilovepaydays]

Well, Ralph Fiennes looked like he’s rather sit through anything else then this butchered montage. Especially about a beloved spy.

We’re with you, Rafe. We’re with you.

 

[BaileyCatts]

I could have done without the Bond thing. I'd rather have this years nominated Best Songs performed.
