Wow, it sounds a million times more depressing now...

lol sorry 

[Blankments]

The most annoying aspect about Birdman winning is I know it won't get the backlash like Argo, Artist, or King's Speech because for some odd reason, the entire Internet is utterly infatuated with RedLetterMedia, so Boyhood is the backlash of this year regardless, kinda like how Gravity was the backlash of last year..

2 films that weren't even nominated for BP that I think should've won over Birdman,  Nightcrawler and Gone Girl.  Hell, throw in LOCKE as well.  #crappyoscars

Locke and Gone Girl agree. Would put Nightcrawler slightly behind Birdman

I'm not sure that the 'lifetime' achievement narrative and 'due' narrative was that strong really. I mean he's a first time nominee.

I don't know, there's already plenty of Birdman backlash on here.

Even Film Crit Hulk hated it.

Happy with Birdman winning. I found Boyhood boring. Happy with the acting wins as well and with Whiplash's success.

Seriously

[DAR]

I'm on the Internet, what the hell is Red Letter Media?

[ddddeeee]

I'm sending ddddeeee my booze. This is sad.

Keaton was the lead in a BP winner and has quite a few promising movies coming. Life is good.

I'll restrict my bitterness to just remarking on how annoying Redmayne's speech was.

[ban1o]

wonder if Eddie will be nominated again next year for that Tom Hooper film.

Unless it flops hard, probably.

Rank the BP backlashes

[DAJK]

I having an argument with my friends right now about American Sniper. Some of them are just "stick your head in the sand" and claim that it's a terrible movie because they don't agree with the war itself. Basically, what's cool to say among teenagers were I live is that America is wrong, and therefore everything Chris Kyle stood for was wrong; which isn't a good way of thinking in my opinion. Ugh, so frustrating.

Liking Birdman and BH6, I feel like Regina George when the Burn Book is unleashed in Mean Girls.
