93rd Academy Awards Discussion Thread | Nomadland, Hopkins, McDormand, Zhao, Youn, Kaluuya win

[titanic2187]

All winners get ample time to give their speech this year. 

[filmlover]

They've done a good job spreading the wealth tonight. Soul, Judas, Sound of Metal, Mank, and Ma Rainey will all go home with two Oscars each and we still have three awards left.

[Eric Prime]

Wait they're doing a trivia show? Do they want people to go to sleep on time?

[titanic2187]

wow, the night 2nd surprise. 

[grim22]

Show running long? Best time to start a random bit

[filmlover]

Wait, are they not gonna do an In Memoriam segment this year? Really? What the fuck if so.

Glad to see it wasn't cut in favor of that useless trivia bit (even if it gave us the inevitable gif of Glenn Close doing Da Butt).

[lorddemaxus]

Why was the in memoriam section so fastly cut this time? 

[Cap]

I won’t lie. The In Memoriam got me. That’s for two seconds I forgot that Chadwick was not with us anymore. And then I realized about halfway through that he was going to be in this, and that he was probably gonna be last. 😭😭

 

I still cannot believe he’s gone

[titanic2187]

they should highlight 560k+ number as this is the number of people died since last oscar due to Covid-19

[Eric Prime]

Wait...why are they doing Best Picture before Actor and Actress? What the hell is this ceremony?

[grim22]

They want Actor on last for Chadwick?

Just now, Eric Bombay said:

 

I love Stevie Wonder as much as the next person but using "As" for In Memoriam was certainly...a choice.

 

Wait, are we really do doing Picture before either Lead category? WHAT.

[titanic2187]

Do they forgot both acting category?

[filmlover]

It's gonna be super awkward if anyone but Boseman wins Actor now because they're clearly saving that for last knowing it's gonna be the moment everyone talks about tomorrow. Even more so than what won Picture.

[Webslinger]

Well, presenting Picture with the two lead acting Oscars still left to go is certainly one way to mix things up and get conversation going, I’ll say that.

 

It’ll be all the wilder if the two remaining Oscars go to Boseman and Davis, whose film wasn’t nominated for Picture.

Yup. This is kind of ridiculous

I know, I got just teary-eyed when they showed him last. Great actor, and even greater human-being, his loss is huge.
