88TH ANNUAL ACADEMY AWARDS Discussion Topic (LIVE! Today's discussion begins on pg 33)

They are overdoing this shit. It is ridiculous. Of course he will get applauses. Because everyone wants to look good and say he was great. 

[Chewy]

Terrible I don't need to hear this again

[Ethan Hunt]

Yas! Writing on the Wall!!!

 

[Blankments]

yawning right now

[CoolioD1]

from the first note i was like: nope

[Avatree]

wait do they have full live performances of all 5 song noms?

[WrathOfHan]

Sam Smith sounds awful live, Jesus.

[Films]

My ears are burning.

[BadAtGender]

God damn this song.

[Jayhawk the Hutt]

How the fuck was this nominated again?

[Webslinger]

I know that it was a weak-ish year for movie songs, but I'm still shocked that "Writing's On the Wall" was even nominated. It's not the worst Bond song, but unlike - oh, say, "Die Another Day" or "Another Way to Die" - I forgot about it completely just minutes after it ended (and that was despite the fact that I seemed to enjoy the movie as a whole way more than most viewers).

 

Sarah Silverman had some solid zingers in the intro, which definitely helps to offset the "meh"-ness of the performance that follows.

We getting Tentacle Porn?

JINX LMFAO 

[CoolioD1]

why is this guy still around adele already came back.

[eXtacy]

Half the oscars I mute because its cringe worthy.

[Alpha]

You can tell this song was trying to ape off Adele's Bond song. Such trash.

[filmlover]

Can we all agree the winner of this whole thing so far is Stacey Dash for her completely random and WTF appearance?

[GiantCALBears]

The Academy deserves this roasting, don't think it's being overdone at all. They hired Chris Rock, what else did you expect guys?

[Chewy]

Bring Stacey Dash back out and make her awkwardly stand there for 3 minutes, better use of everyone's time

[CJohn]

I hope Sam Smith wins for the lulz.
