The Joker 2 joke was ruthless. Also, I loved June Squibb's segment, she was hilarious. 95 years old and quick as a whip!

Also, I gotta say, I wasn't expecting to see Karla Sofía Gascón so much tonight.

 

[Snow Queen]

Go on. Make it worse.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I love that he suited up for SNL 50 but not the Oscars.

So, I see the right are complaining about how Reagan was locked out of Oscar nominations because of the representation requirements. Which, is just kind of perfect about a Reagan film, really.

Just tell them the awards recognition will eventually trickle down to Reagan. They can’t argue with that.

The cringest moment of the night by far.

This night was how I learned the songwriter for Emilia Perez is the same genius who gave us the song from the original Les Jeunes Des Paris SNL sketch, and now I want to cry.

On the bright side, so happy about the Anora wins. I really didn’t expect Mikey to take it, and I’m thrilled to have been wrong! Flow beating Wild Robot was also a pleasant surprise.

All in all, pretty happy with all the winners. Except Zoe.

 

[Mysteryman]

Sorry to hear that.0
I’d still be interested in seeing both films.

Representation requirements?

So now… of all the singers they could’ve gotten for that tribute that could’ve really belted out those songs the way they deserve… why those 3? Just because they put out a song together recently? What do any of them have to do with Bond? Or the Oscars? Or like… movies in general?

Cynthia and Ariana killed it though with the opening. Conan was also a great host. Very disappointed that Emilia Perez gets to say that it’s an Oscar winning movie now but very happy for Mikey, Anora, Kieran, and No Other Land. Also happy that Wicked, Dune 2, and The Substance managed to get a few awards under their belt even though they definitely deserved some of the bigger ones.

This is the first I’m hearing of this movie and it has 18% on the tomatometer but ****ing 98% on the popcornmeter . There’s really no one that does it like right wingers when it comes to blind obedience.

Outside of representation requirements, didn't Reagan get blasted by critics?

The Bond tribute was rough, especially after the unbelievably powerful opening number from Cynthia and Ariana. Lisa's part sounded like playback, which is fine with her choreography, but the other two kind of tanked. Neither Doja Cat nor Raye is built for those songs, and it was a little bit unfortunate.

It's only up to 18% of Rotten Tomatoes, so even if it did qualify, it probably wouldn't have been considered for any important categories at The Oscars.

You know, I'm really glad that I was able to watch all 50 Oscar nominees. I really enjoyed that, but I believe in respecting the balance, so I'm about to rent and watch Gigli for the first time...

You could always watch that Reagan movie or Joker 2, as well.

Wasn't Morgan Freeman supposed to do a tribute to Gene Hackman? Unless I missed it...

OK, thanks!! I did miss it, I was out of the room for the beginning of the In Memoriam part.
