Will mcfarlene top fey and poehler cause i thought they were great hosts best in a long time.

I loved McFarlane's nomination announcement much more than Fey and Poehler.

[Jack Nevada]

Out of the Oscar-films I have yet to see The Master, ZDT, Les Miz, Django, Lincoln and Silver Linings.

[baumer]

Fey and Poehler were awesome.

Interesting fact: George Clooney is nominated as a producer for Argo. This breaks an Oscar record as he is now the first person ever to have been nominated in 6 different categories.

Funny how when a movie makes a Billion dollars worldwide, that you hear a little more about it, but when it comes to TDKR, it's like no one cares what the movie made cause it stunk and it's true.. When TA did it, that's all you saw in the headlines, but TDKR was pretty well shafted and deservedly so.. Tough break Nolan fans..

Go bow over your Avengers shit and leave the other fans alone.

Since you praise Joss Whedon, I'll call you Buffy. Hi Buffy

Nothing will top Team Lincoln's Oscar begging. The entire release has been one big Oscar beg

THIS! ALL OF THIS!

I hope JLaw continues with funny, unpretentious speeches. Anne and Jessica gave the same speech except that jessica`s was coherent and graceful while Anne`s was Anne-oying. But the gist is the same:part 1 - I`m this hard-working actress who paid her dues so please give me the award I deserve itpart 2 - pay tribute to an elderly female nominee to show how so not selfish and so not all about me,me,me the speech is

Does Chastain know this "girl power" nonsense is so 1999 ???Ginger spice indeed.

Ginger spice indeed.

You would probably have a fishnetsian meltdown if Lawrence doesnt win

Only thing I can say is Go Riva Go. Just think about the meltdowns, I'll have a meltdown either way.

I think I'd be okay with any one of them winning. I'm rooting for Chastain, but I'm biased when it comes to her.
